Darby is excited to go on a "volcano watch," camping out and observing the island's volcanoes, despite recent small earthquakes that could mean an eruption is coming. After all, Darby grew up in California, so she's used to the earth rumbling now and then. Plus, the expedition is perfect for working with Hoku, helping the young mustang learn to handle any situation. But when the volcanoes do erupt, it's much scarier than Darby anticipated, and a stream of lava leaves Darby and Hoku stranded. Can Darby's horse-charming skills keep the mustang calm? Or will her filly run back to the wild?
Darby Carter lives on her grandfathers ranch in Hawaii and is in the process of training her mustang filly Hoku. She's also going on a camping trip on the slopes of a nearby volcanoe for a school project with her friend Ann Potter and her cousin Megan. But shortly before the trip, earthquakes rock the little island and the volcanoe doesn't look to calm. Darby is afraid to leave Hoku behind in case of more earth quakes, she knows she has to be there for the filly. Then when the volcanoe does erupt Darby has to trust her filly to carry her out of the lava's path.
