When dreams come true

A sun-drenched adventure follows a captain and his Indian attendant across the Chihuahuan desert toward an annual Feast of the Corn. Lyrical landscape passages evoke mesas, sierras, mirage and encampments while the narrative interweaves memories of fever, rescue, and the deep bond between the captain and a rare Arabian horse. Encounters with hill tribes, local superstitions, and small tensions on the trail propel a sequence of personal challenges, romantic entanglements, and unfolding revelations set against a vividly rendered Southwestern frontier.
