"Diamond" is the true story of a horse and its new-found friend. Alicia was always afraid of horses, but one day, she touched one for the first time. She wanted to ride Diamond, too, but Papa promised she could ride him upon their return. Papa's work would take him and Diamond across the river. Due to heavy rains, the river had risen ten feet above normal. Crossing it would not be easy. There are currents, seen and unseen. Everyone who lived beside the river was aware of the dangers it posed if one was careless. It had taken several lives when it wasn't flooded, much more when it overflowed its bank. Will there be another tragedy?
