Native Amerian Cree Thunderboy dreams of being in a recording studio with his band, but he's got to make some money first. His gift of reading the horses at the track garners him some income, but too many strings are attached. Cree and his best friend have to use their smarts to outwit a small-time crook and stay alive.
VERDICT A clever puzzle that features a young man seeking to make his way. With mild but not overwhelming violence.
