"Thatcher Hutton, a war-weary soldier on the way back to his cowboy life, jumps from a moving freight train to avoid trouble . . . and lands in more than he bargained for"-- 1920. Thatcher Hutton, a war-weary soldier, is on the way back to his cowboy life. On the day he arrives in Foley, Texas, a local woman goes missing.

Laurel and Thatcher find themselves on opposite sides of a moonshine war, where blood flows as freely as whiskey. -- adapted from jacket
