The Unusual Life of Pearl Lux

By Donna R. McGrew

If you read The Horsewhisperer youll love Pearl. He has taken the role of horse trainer into the arena of fascination where the reader can experience the love he had for horses. The little bad boy becomes a legend that lives and breathes his art. He surmounts all the odds to achieve excitement and love through his passion. He rescues the love of his life, Hannah, from physical and mental abuse then becomes the suspect in the murder of Benny Ahrens. He takes a cattle drive to the Nebraska plains with Hannah, Lone Bear and Sweet Water from the Red Cliff Nations of Wisconsin, along with his pals, Jesse and B.J. A cattle stampede is caused by storms in Wisconsin. It leads them to the traders, Vasques and Wilson, and the rescue of the slave Cynci from the Sauk Nations. The group rescues a courier rider tortured by the Ogallalla Sioux, who dies in the arms of the gentle Sweet Water. Transport yourself to another era and time that fascinates and enthralls the reader with every word.
