Teenage farm boy Jonas Ford's life becomes intertwined with his new next-door neighbor, Casey Caraway, the daughter of the town's freshly transferred Police Sergeant, Wayne Caraway. As the two adolescents discover a shared bond, they find solace from their respective struggles - Jonas, from the grueling demands of farm life, and Casey, from the cruel torment of her alcoholic and abusive father. However, the tranquility is short-lived as the violent nature of Sergeant Wayne rears its ugly head. A fatal triple homicide involving a drug deal gone awry pulls Jonas into a chilling vortex of crime and danger.
