In the 1940s, drifter Will Parker (Christopher Reeve) is new to the small town of Whitney. He just spent five years in prison in Huntsville for killing someone in La Grange, Texas--though he says he didn't do it. The first place he goes is to the diner where Lula (Helen Shaver) works as a waitress, and asks for a paper so he can look for a job.

Just as Will and Emily seem to climbing from their respective own prisons by marrying in a nearby town, saving money from the sale of eggs and honey, and welcoming a much-desired daughter after a successful home birth, he is suddenly arrested for Lula's murder. Will Emily believe him innocent and help exonerate him, or is the Sheriff right that Will is an evil force in his community?
