Desperate to escape the burden of their failing farm and nightmare memories of what happened during the war, Clay Butterfield and his young wife, Rose Alice, plan to abandon their life in the East and join a wagon train bound for California. Trouble looms when a late fall of spring snow delays their departure and Clay receives word that a gunman has arrived in town, intent on killing him. Clay's first instinct is to run but in order to protect Rose Alice and make his new life secure he reconsiders and rides into town to confront the stranger who wants him dead.
