The narrative unfolds as Julia's determination to travel on the Titanic without her ill children leads to tragic consequences, including her husband's death. While she claims the trip aims to secure her father's support for her husband's political ambitions, her motivations are more complex. A letter reveals her deeper intentions, and her family's later discoveries about her father's fall from grace shed light on the true purpose of her journey. The story explores themes of ambition, familial ties, and the haunting nature of choices made in desperation.

This classic work is not only one of the most beautiful books on horses ever published, but also a landmark in the development of equestrian technique.
