Confirmado: Laura Marlin tiene una habilidad especial para atraer los misterios. ¿Qué hacer si encuentras un purasangre de setenta y cinco millones de dólares abandonado en mitad de la carretera? Pues buscar a su dueño. La recompensa por devolverlo consiste nada más y nada menos que en unas vacaciones en Kentucky: concretamente en Fleet Farm, el rancho de los Wainright, la familia propietaria del caballo. Pero en Fleet Farm pasan cosas muy extrañas, y Laura piensa tirar del hilo hasta el final para deshacer una trama en la que parece haber mucho dinero en juego y no pocos peligros al acecho. Por suerte, también en esta ocasión cuenta con la ayuda de su tío Calvin y de sus dos amigos inseparables, Tariq y el husky Skye. El nuevo y emocionante caso de Laura Marlin nos lleva esta vez hasta Kentucky, la cuna de las carreras de caballos.
