For Jeff Hunter and his family, life in the isolated ranching valley was lonely and discouraging. Shunned by neighbors and ridiculed at school as a "clod- hopper," Jeff longed to return to city life.
But the stormy night he saw the huge red stallion for the first time, things began to change. Bred and schooled for racing, the horse had escaped from his trainer and found his way into Jeff's life, only to vanish again like the Goblin he was to be named. After an agonizing search and a desperate rescue, Jeff brought the stallion home, and with him new courage and the joy of riding the finest horse in the valley. But the beautiful and headstrong Goblin also brought new and often dangerous problems to the Hunters.
Walt Morey tells an absorbing story of a boy and a runaway stallion who together bring new warmth and understanding to a hostile town.
