Tabbie Ann

Behind her tough girl swagger, sixteen year old Tabbie Ann is hurting. Her father, wallowing in grief over the loss of her mother, controls her every move, refusing to let her grow up. She defies him, engaging in any physical diversion to fill the emptiness inside - smashing bowling pins, flirting with strange boys, or riding her horse full speed over the rugged plains of Wyoming. On a day when he's supposed to out of town hauling equipment, she rolls into Cheyenne with her best friend, tries to get a tattoo, and fails. She heads back home, crushed, but some one's been watching her escapades, and on a barren, windswept highway, father and daughter collide in an explosion of anger and accusation - finally exposing Tabbie's darkest secret, her deepest sorrow.
