Description:
Jerrod Danmyer's family was among the first of those to migrate and establish a ranch near the town of Eden in Kansas. Ten years ago, Stover Gates brought his family from the coal mines of Ohio. But soon after their arrival, Stover's brother was killed by Jerrod's brother, starting a blood feud that continues to rage. When Stover's daughter, Marian is rescued after an accident by Jerrod, the pair quickly fall in love. Now they must face not only the wrath of the feuding familys, but a plague of locusts that threaten to destroy the entire valley. Some folks see the pestilence as a sign from God, a chance to repent and be more charitable. But others see it as a chance to line their pockets, even resorting to murder to get what they want!
