Beschreibung

In the untamed American West, where the rugged landscapes echo with the sound of galloping hooves and the spirit of the frontier still burns bright, "Wildfire" tells the gripping tale of a magnificent stallion and the men and women whose lives are forever changed by its presence. Lin Slone, a skilled horse wrangler, is drawn to a breathtaking wild stallion, whom he names Wildfire. With a coat like fire and a spirit as untamed as the land itself, Wildfire is a force of nature. When Lin's path crosses with the captivating Ruth Virey, their love for Wildfire becomes a shared passion that transcends boundaries and kindles a deep connection between them. But the West is a place of challenges and danger, and the allure of Wildfire attracts not only the hearts of those who admire him but also the greed of those who seek to possess him. As rivalries intensify and tensions escalate, Lin and Ruth must fight not only to protect Wildfire but also to protect their love and the future they dream of together. Zane Grey, a master of Western storytelling, weaves a tale of love, adventure, and the indomitable spirit of the West. "Wildfire" is a thrilling saga of the American frontier, where the bond between humans and horses runs deep, and where the pursuit of freedom and love knows no bounds. Join Lin, Ruth, and Wildfire on an epic journey through the wild and breathtaking landscapes of the Old West, where the heart-pounding excitement of the untamed frontier awaits.
