Book Description
Lynn Romano is a tough woman with a big job: as stable manager for Hunter’s Chase, north of New York City, she manages horses that weigh more than a ton, have unpredictable tempers, and are worth more than most people make in a year. Emergencies are what she’s paid for. When an earthquake tremor—almost unheard of in this part of the world—spooks the stable’s most valuable stallion, Lynn decides to ride him home through Gordath Wood rather than try to load him into a van. They never get there. Something has happened in Gordath Wood. The police think they have a murderer on their hands, but the truth is stranger than that. Lynn has stumbled into a hole between worlds, and now finds herself in a world at war, in a medieval society that doesn’t have much use for women. Someone she needs to keep herself alive long enough to figure out who the good guys are—and to find a way home.
