Synopsis[]

Tori Konrad and her fourteen-year-old son Jake run a quiet little horse riding school called Outriders, on the outskirts of Sydney. Her niece Julia, a highly independent sixteen-year-old from Germany, has come to stay with her Aunt Tori and hopefully recover from the trauma of her mother's recent death. Other troubled teens who have taken up a working residence at Outriders are Regina (she prefers Reggie) who was asked to leave three different schools before her parents jumped at the opportunity to send her here, Vince who has been in and out of foster homes for as long as he can remember and had hardly seen a horse, let alone ridden one before arriving and Shane, a country boy who is now resident stable hand, riding instructor and jack of all trades.^[1]
