Cantry is a romantic horseman, enamored with Henry repeaters and muzzleloading rifles, the young adult nephew of a cattle owner, Ian, living in the sand-hills near Kindred, North Dakota in 1990. Cantry pursues some stray cattle after they have been scattered by a severe thunderstorm, only to find that some wild dogs have picked up the trail. His search companion, Jewel, is a perky, sharp witted local girl in her late teens and is also an excellent hand with a horse. With their trusty mounts, the two of them face the task ahead; an ordinary day for rounding up cattle. As the morning unfolds neither Cantry nor Jewel, realize the adventure that lies ahead. Will the wild dogs be a threat? Will they find the cattle in time as their pursuit leads them on a ride into the open spaces?
