From the cover:
In the still of a snow-covered morning in upstate New York, a girl out riding her horse is hit by a 40-ton truck. Though horribly injured, both thirteen-year-old Grace Maclean and her horse Pilgrim survive. But the impact on their lives and the lives of those who love them is devastating.
Grace is the only child of a prominent New York magazine editor, Annie Graves, and her lawyer husband Robert. In a way which none of them at first understands, their destiny comes to depend upon Pilgrim's. So mutilated and traumatized is he that even the vet who saved his life now wishes he hadn't. Annie refuses to have him destroyed, sensing that if she does, something in Grace will die too.
She hears about a man in Montana, a 'whisperer' who is said to have the gift of healing troubled horses. Abonding her job, Annie sets off across the continent with Grace and Pilgim to find him. The man's name is Tom Booker and he lives on the Rocky Mountain Front, a place of daunting beauty. Here, under the massive Montana sky, all their lives are changed forever.
This book is listed in the Angus & Robertson Top 100.
Cover Art differs.

My husband bought this book several years ago. I remember it distinctly on the bookshelf. I am endeavouring to read all the books on the A&R Top 100 list so I added to my wishlist. I found this at St Vinnies yesterday and now that I have read the back again I know I obviously read it a couple of years ago, but didnt record it in my reading journal. I'm not planning to read it again so I'll release it somewhere, some how.
