For ten years, Gabe Talmadge languished in prison,
convicted of a horrible crime. Now, he is free once again
but unable to find work in the midst of the Great
Depression. In desperation, Gabe returns to Ransom, Idaho,
hoping that his uncaring father will give him food and
shelter, if not love. But the prodigal son is not welcomed
home. Hudson Talmadge, who virtually owns the town of
Ransom, despises his youngest son as much as ever-and Gabe
is as powerless to win his father's approval as when he
was a child.
A Man with a Future...
Hungry and hopeless, Gabe is rescued by the owner of a
sheep ranch south of Ransom. Incredibly, Akira Macauley
gives him a place to live and work to do. More than that,
she gives him hope that he can receive forgiveness for his
past-and perhaps even love.
A Man with a Choice...
But just as Gabe comes to believe that happiness may be
within his grasp, tragedy strikes Ransom once more. As his
life begins to unravel, Gabe must either sink again into
an abyss of hopelessness or cling to a hope, faith, and
love stronger than any he has ever known.
