Bluebird is sick and no one can figure out what is wrong with him. Emily feels like her heart is being torn in two. If they can’t find out what he has then how can they treat him and make him better? And if he’s not well enough to compete in the third show of the Talent Scout series then Emily’s dreams of winning a sponsorship and competing in Europe will be crushed for good. But getting her pony better is all she cares about, even if it does mean sacrificing her career.
And Bluebird isn’t the only sick horse. There is a new foal at Fox Run and he’s not doing well either. Abandoned by his owner and shunned by his mother, the foal needs a nurse mare and fast if he’s going to make it.
But Emily isn't alone. When she befriends a girl at the vet clinic whose horse is in worse shape than Bluebird she might have to face her own fears, that sometimes horses don't make it. And life and death is a tough lesson for a teenage girl to learn when her horse is the most important thing in her life.
