Can a rescued horse help Ali get through to her brother, who has returned from Afghanistan with PTSD?
Ali used to love horses. But that was before the accident, when she was injured and her pony died. Before her brother Danny joined the military.
Now Danny has returned from Afghanistan. He’s learning to walk with the prosthetic that has replaced one of his legs, but he can’t seem to find a way to reconnect with family and friends. Withdrawn and quick to anger, Danny suffers from terrible nightmares and frightening mood changes.
When Ali realizes that an elderly neighbor has been neglecting her horses, she decides she has to act. Can Ali rise above her painful memories and love a horse again? And can Wind Dancer, also injured and traumatized, help Danny rediscover meaning in his life?

Chris Platt is an award-winning author of more than one dozen books for young readers about horses. Willow King was awarded the Golden Heart Award from the Romance Writers of America, and Star Gazer was part of the Kansas State Reading Circle Recommended Reading List, as well as a Parents’ Choice Approved book. Her other novels, including Moon Shadow, Storm Chaser, and Asta, have also earned prizes, such as the Bank Street College of Education Award, and have been championed by librarians, parents, and schools around the country.
Before earning her degree in journalism from the University of Nevada, Reno, Platt lived in Oregon, where she was one of the first female jockeys in the state. She is also a marathoner, plays the drums in a bagpipe band, and has a black belt in hard-style Shotokan Karate. She lives in Washoe Valley, Nevada, with her husband, four horses, two cats, and an ornery parrot.
