Abstract:
Rob Cooper, haunted by his WWII experiences, witnesses a brutal biker gang murder, and seeks anonymity in a South Dakota farming community. There, he learns farming, and becomes enmeshed in the vibrant humanity of the farmers and town folk of the Bryson City community. The human nature about him, from ribald and humorous to poignant and tragic, shapes his human perceptions. His battle with memories of horror takes a turn with the reappearance of an old nemesis, stoking Rob’s determination to rid himself of his demons with the help of his wife, Millie, and men of the cloth.
