In 1922 orphaned Carl and Adam Matuski travel to Portland,
Oregon to stay with their Uncle Pete. When Adam is accused
of stealing jewelry from his girlfriend's house,
sixteen-year-old Carl rises to his defense, intent on
finding the real criminal. Although he's aided by a likable
news reporter, Carl is hampered by virulent anti-immigrant,
anti-Catholic sentiments swirling through Oregon that fall
as voters are asked whether to outlaw Catholic schools
altogether.
