A man known only as Blood guides an oxcart of rum towards Indian Stream. An ungoverned territory high in rural New Hampshire, north-east America, Indian Stream is the place where the luckless and the lawless make their way in order to make a fresh start - and Blood's reason for heading there is no different. A man with a past he'd rather forget, he hopes to establish himself as a trader. But on their arrival, he and Sally - a beautiful sixteen-year-old won in a game of cards - soon find their presence there is the trigger for conflict within the community; conflict that finally forces Blood to confront his ghosts.
