Summary |
At mid-life, 4 years a widow, a homestead left in her care, Jessie Tate faces yet another challenge. Her dying brother, Gabe, has lost his ranch and intends to sell his herd of prize crossbreeds to a Texan to cover gambling debts. On his death bed he confesses the debts and asks Jessie to manage his affairs. He reveals, as well, that his teenage daughter, Kitty, is really Jessie's child, taken from her when she lay near death at the childs birth. Heartbroken by the impending death, the loss of the ranch, and driven by a sense of injustice, Kitty spirits the beloved crossbreeds and their magnificent thoroughbred sire into the wilderness. Knowing Kitty and the herd will face untold dangers, Jessie makes the tough decision to find Kitty and trail the herd 250 miles across the wilds of Montana to her home in the Bitterroot Valley. |
