Night Ride Across the Caucasus is about lovers from rival tribes fleeing to avoid being honor-killed.

 * Reason one: Some of the language is romantic
 * Reason two: Who in their right mind would ride across the Caucasus in the night unless they had a very good reason? The population is as pugnacious as on some American streets not to mention the possibility of breaking your horses leg in a pot hole and being bucked off a cliff.
