Annie Oakes restores carousel horses by day, and, as Annabelle
Oaklee, shoots guns and throws knives at night. A sharpshooter
and trick rider she travels the rodeo circuit with her
American paint horse, Target, and a vintage Harley-Davidson
motorcycle in a horse trailer-cum-camper.
Every night in her
show she invites a volunteer from the audience. When the
man who steps out of the stands during
her performance in Cheyenne turns out to be the former boy-next-door
she was in love with as a teenager, she knows something’s
wrong. Kieran Hawes is now an investigator with WRAITH, a
privately funded law enforcement organization. He’s
trying to put an end to the ring passing ‘Painted Pony’,
the newest street drug, through circles within the rodeo.
Who
in her rodeo family would take such a chance and why is
one of them out to kill Annie?
