After losing his parents and suffering through eleven foster homes in eight yeas, fifteen-year old Jordy Threebears returns to the Ash Creek Blackfoot Reserve to live with a grandfather he hardly knows. For Jordy, the years of resentment and anger prove difficult to overcome until he receives the gift of a wild mare. With his horse Siksika, Jordy gains a companion as well as the determination to beat the odds. But Fred Brady's unexplainable hatred of Jordy threatens the boy's chance for happiness.

"This title can go right to the top of the list of good short books. There's plenty of action, well-rounded Native American characters (although the non-Indians are a little less clearly drawn), vivid depiction of the setting, and the text is as spare and tautly-strung as a prairie pony." --"School Library Journal"
