In a small and isolated town in Tennessee, the lives of several characters intertwine. John Westley Rattner, a young man who matures quickly, is forced to work to help his mother after his father's murder. The perpetrator of the crime is Marion Sylder, an alcohol smuggler who benefits from the prohibition. Unexpectedly, a relationship arises between them. Years ago, Arthur Ownby, known as Uncle Ather, decides to live in nature to get away from civilization, where he finds a corpse in his well.
