It tells the story of Joseph Kimmel, reclusive Missouri schoolteacher, who goes to Texas to settle his brother's estate. Texas changes him. He battles Indians, rescues an escaped slave, marries Katrin, a young Alsatian immigrant, and becomes the biggest landowner in the Texas Hill Country, but it is his obsession with Aurelia, a mysterious Mexican girl with mystical powers, that nearly destroys him.
