When Cuban landlord Don Rigol threatens the herd of wild ponies that Enriquito and Ernestina have discovered, their efforts to protect the horses result in a series of adventures complete with lost treasure, a vicious crocodile, a mysterious locket, a jailbreak, and a very unusual trial. Flores-Galbis's blend of magical realism and action animates this tale of friendship and justice.
