Upon learning that an older woman has moved into run-down, creepy Crabapple Farm, nine-year-old Keeker rides over on her pony, Plum, to find out whether the woman is a witch.

Keeker and her pony Plum enter their very first horse show, where they are confronted by much more experienced riders.

Katherine "Keeker" Dana decides to run away rather than give up her beloved pony, Plum, when her parents suggest they will buy her a bigger pony for her eleventh birthday, but an interesting new neighbor girl might lead to a better solution.
