Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

For twelve-year-old Coral, having divorced parents means only getting to see her dad a few times each year. So when he invites her on a guided elk hunt--on horseback--in the Colorado mountains over fall break, Coral is thrilled. She's sure that this will be the adventure of a lifetime--and great bonding time with her father--even if she is nervous around horses. The hunt is fun, but soon things start to unravel. Coral struggles to find her confidence and feels strangely distant from her dad, especially when he surprises her with some big news. When a huge storm blows in, turning the mountain slippery and treacherous, Coral realizes she must overcome her fears and feelings of resentment to make it back down the mountain to safety.
