This is another Rice charmer set in a particularly interesting locale. Anthropologist Susannah Connolly has traveled to the Camargue region of France to fulfill her mother's dying wish. Camargue is home to the Romany. Driving into the region, Susannah parks by the side of the road and steps out into the mist hoping for a glimpse of the famed white horses. Instead she finds herself surrounded by the black bulls that roam the region. As fear sets in, Grey Dempsey rides up on a white horse, holds out a hand and pulls her up out of harm's way. Thus starts the story of a romance, of a miracle, of trying to bring the colors of joy rather than the gray shadows of despair to a young girl, the legend of the Three Marys and of the horses that have roamed the region for thousands of years. When I finished the book I found myself compelled to read further of the Camargue, the Romany and the white horses.
