In the country of Breda men are forbidden a home to call their own. They live as nomads, resting only at the mercy of the ruling women. Kats mother, Tess, the Maestra of Crowfoot Inn, is one of these powerful women and Kat has always known it is her destiny to follow in Tesss footsteps. But then one rain-swept night a scarred woman comes to Crowfoot riding an extraordinary silver horse and Kats world is turned upside down. From that moment on it is her burning ambition to become a Bredanaria keeper of the peace and rider of these magnificent creatures. But it isnt easy for a girl from the Vales to fit in at the Bredanari training academy in the big city. Worse still, Kat knows something which has put her life in danger. She has accidentally discovered the whereabouts of a dangerous outlaw known as Ermine. Now there are ruthless people who will do anything to keep her from revealing this secret, including leaving her unconscious on Hellhorse Mountain, where the beautiful but deadly stallions run wild.
