Korean War veteran Iry Paret is trying to put the past behind him, having just been released from the Louisiana State Penitentiary in Angola after serving time for manslaughter. He heads west to begin a new life in Montana on the family ranch of Buddy Riordan, a friend from prison.

Tensions are growing, and so is the level of power the Riordans and Iry are up against. Meanwhile, Iry begins falling for Buddy’s estranged wife, and soon his loyalty to his friend as well as his determination to stay on the straight and narrow is put to the test
