The Sequel to the Popular Winds of Change The Lemonwood tree stands proud at the highest point on Chanting Clover Thoroughbred Stud in the heart of the picturesque KwaZulu Natal midlands of South Africa. It is a place where the Whitaker family gravitate for times of intimacy, introspection, and restoration, normally on the back of a horse. Melonie Whitaker, as a young mother, is recovering from the harrowing experience of the third attempt on her life. Her assailant died. Melonie's lawyer successfully proved to a packed court that it was self-defense, not murder. But she remains the target of Colonel Solomon Tlale: Melonie's nemesis. The man who abducted her twenty years earlier during the Rhodesian bush war. Despite crippling security measures, Melonie and her husband Gary manage to breed and train to the pinnacle of South African flat racing, and beyond to the Middle East and America. All the time, the colonel's vendetta affects their every decision. In a simple error on security, the family is struck with heart-wrenching consequences. Can the Whitakers stop the madness of the Colonel from destroying them all?
