Wild Horses, A Novel

di Amy Pendino (Autore)

Witness Tree, 2022

What strings are attached to "easy money"? Dani Holden has lived in small-town Crestview, Iowa, for almost two years. She knows the locals and their customs now and finally feels accepted. She won't be able to stay, though, unless she finds a new source of income. Her good friend Donna introduces Dani to a trucker who's become a regular at Susie's Café, the town's local meeting spot. He's got an opportunity for Dani, a way for her to earn some "easy money." Donna also convinces her to adopt an old racehorse, a project for Dani to focus on while she wrestles with the trucker's offer. And there's other news—former resident Lilly, now 80 years old and in poor health, thinks she's located the child she gave up years ago. But time is running out: she may not make it through her diagnosis in time to meet him. The shocking secrets Dani unearths around town and across the highways cause residents to second-guess the place and people they thought they knew. Vivid depictions of friendship, small-town customs, and rural scenery are pitted against increasingly dangerous drug activity and the unregulated treatment of food stock animals, making Wild Horses a moving, page-turning story you won't want to put down.
