Summary:
"A breathtaking journey of survival in the dark days of WWII in Ukraine, a country that remains tumultuous today. The power of the human spirit. It will soon be another cold
winter
in the Ukraine. It's 1941, and things are different this year. Max, the devoted caretaker of an animal preserve, must learn to live with the Nazis who have overtaken this precious land. He must also learn to keep secrets -- for there is a girl, Kalinka, who is hiding in the park. Kalinka has lost her home, her family, her belongings -- everything but her life. Still, she has gained one small, precious gift: a relationship with the rare wild and wily Przewalski's
horses
that wander the preserve. Aside from Max, these endangered animals are her only friends -- until a Nazi campaign of extermination nearly wipes them out for good. Now Kalinka must set out on a treacherous journey across the frozen forest to save the only two surviving
horses
-- and herself.
