The hush of the Ozark wilderness is broken by the steady hoofbeats of young riders threading their way through shadowed valleys and along the rugged slopes of Ruby Mountain. With every turn in the trail, anticipation mounts-mystery and the lure of the unknown beckon from the heart of the American West, where secrets lie hidden beneath ancient stone and dense forest canopies.
