Immerse yourself in the adventures of Candy Clark and her nemesis, Crissy von Foque-Trot, in the arcane, and sometimes steamy, world of Dressage riding. Meet a diverse cast, including the crustiest of the uppercrust, the saltiest salt of the earth, and some noble, four-legged, terpsichorean athletes.

Experienced rider Debby Buck DeJonge writes with a witty (and sometimes wicked), fast-paced style that will have you laughing and crying with her characters’ triumphs and heartbreaks.
