The good-old-life quickly dissipates when the pairs old friend Jake Spoon comes to town, and tells them about the incredible opportunities for cattle ranching in Montana. Encouraged by this, Call convinces Gus and many other townspeople to go on a perilous cattle drive to Montana.

As the drive goes on it takes on an epic scale, ultimately becoming what could well be called the central event in the lives of all involved.
