“Queen Bitch and the High Horse” is described as a “cautionary tale,” one that centers on town sweetheart turned corrupt public servant Penny Banks. Banks, an ambitious, larger-than-life woman whose passion for civic duty rivals that of her love for horses, rises the ranks of city hall and turns the town into her personal piggy bank. She goes on to embezzle millions to fund a show horse empire that would take her from the podunk rodeo circuit all the way to the winner’s circle in Kentucky.
