Marvel and a Wonder is a darkly mesmerising epic and literary page-turner. In summer 1995, Jim Falls, a Korean War vet, struggles to raise his 16-year-old grandson, Quentin, on a farm in Indiana. When they receive a mysterious gift - a beautiful quarter horse - it upends the balance of their lives. The horse catches the attention of a pair of meth-dealing brothers and the horse is stolen and sold. Grandfather and grandson must travel the landscape of the bleak heartland to reclaim the animal. Along the way, both will be forced to face the tragedies of their past.
