Synopsis

 

Greed, lust, and lawlessness are the bedrock of this thrilling literary debut from Apprentice House Press. When Bumble B, a speedy and capricious thoroughbred, arrives at the Smitt’s family farm in Florida, she quickly becomes the subject of eager speculation—perhaps this is the dark horse that will keep the struggling farm afloat. The horse’s beautiful sheen and enviable speed are only part of the story, however, as her handsome and flirtatious trainer, Bud, insists on strict privacy in preparation for the upcoming high-stakes race. What is he hiding? For good or ill, this fickle filly is about to change the Smitt’s lives forever.
