Retired horse doctor, Bill O'Neal, is dying. He summons a former colleague, Dr. Hayley Alexander, to help him write his memoir. Bill is concerned his consuming dedication to his profession above his personal needs and lifestyle, are becoming passe. To the outside observer, Dr. O'Neal is a saint. He was a dedicated equine veterinarian and family man who helped horses and people.
Bill knows Hayley is cut from the same
cloth. What Hayley discovers is that despite Bill's exemplary life as a
veterinarian and citizen in his Colorado town, his personal life and marriage
were not what either an outside observer or even he realized.
Why
did this quiet achiever want to write his story? While transcribing Bill's
story, Hayley develops new respect and admiration for her former employer. But
is this a short-term proposition or will this literary assignment lead to more?
Interwoven
in this story are subplots of Bill's professional life with stories about
equine veterinary medicine taken from true events experienced in the author's
previous life as an equine veterinarian.
