Summary

This epic horse story, in the tradition of BLACK STALLION, marks exciting new territory for one of our most treasured and celebrated novelists. En la casa de su abuela, en California, a Maya le tienen prohibido jugar o tener amigos; todo lo que hace esta estrictamente supervisado y han borrado todo aquello que le recordaba a su madre, excepto el mundo imaginario que ella ha creado. En un mundo muy lejano al de Maya, en Wyoming, una yegua llamada Artemisia cabalga libre bajo las estrellas. Acaba de parir un potro y es la yegua lider de una manada de caballos. Pero Artemisia, ademas, tiene la llave que puede abrir los recuerdos de Maya.
