When drought kills the American Southwest, the children of the survivors carve a new civilization out of a land without mercy. Beneath the watchful eye of Big Brother, a nomad caravan is joined by a dark-eyed stranger from the "civilized" east. Together, this extended family face thieves, slave-traders, mercenaries, and a ravishing assassin with a tortured past. But when their headstrong daughter falls in love with the wrong boy, the tribe stumbles upon a terrible secret. Should they hide and survive another day or stand up against unimaginable odds and fight for what's right?
