The fourth book in the Hoofbeats series focusing on Katie!
With trepidation, Katie continues Westward with the Kylers. The
mountainous terrain makes for difficult traveling, and they arrive in
Oregon shortly before the winter snows hit. While the Kylers and the
others begin the search for land, Katie's worst fears are confirmed. Her
uncle is not there. Then she realizes that she has brought the Mustang
home, and she cannot keep him with her anymore. Left with no family and
without the Mustang to rely on, Katie must find her own way...
