A girl on a horse is involved in a car accident, loses a leg and the horse goes mad. As she won't allow him to be destroyed, her mother, a New York magazine editor, quits job and husband and takes horse and daughter to a rancher in Montana, said to cure horses by talking to them. Despite cultural differences--she is British--love blooms between editor and rancher.
