Product Description

The Phantom's lead mare is missing from the herd, and Sam's worried she may have been captured. When Sam finds the mare safe -- in government custody -- she's desperate to set her free.

But the horse is badly injured, and setting her free on the range could slow down the mare's entire herd, putting them at risk in the dangerous winter months. How far should Sam go to help the horses she loves?

5.0 out of 5 stars Another great Phantom Stallion, June 2, 2003

A Kid's Review

The Phantom's lead mare is gone! Sam knows that she has to find the mare because the Phantom can't take care of the herd by himself.
Sam finally finds the mare in a BLM corral. Sam does her best to think of a way to set the mare free. But the mare has a cracked hoof and if Sam set's her free it would slow down the Phantom's entire herd, plus how was she going to do anything if she was having a huge fight with Jake? Finally Sam and Jake make up and the mare's hoof gets better and The Phantom gets a new lead mare and everything is alright.

A Kid's Review

This was the first phantom stallion book
that I read. I liked it alot.
Callie sort of reminded me of my friend.
she'd never dress like Callie but she is
a little eccentric (I think that's the word.)
like Callie.

One of my favorite of the series, very heart-warming! Took me a while to read but every chapter was mysterious and exciting. You can almost see the characters as you read the story. My second-favorite so far. I strongly recommend this book for horse-lovers!
