The Gordon family, dust bowl refugees relocated to the Bunker Hill district of Los Angeles where young David grew up roaming the crime ridden streets. David soon found himself tempted by the lure of illicit profits. Conflicted by his religious upbringing he sought answers regarding the right or wrong of his actions. His questions went unanswered until a deadly incident forced David and his mother to make a life altering decision. With his father away to war, David and his mother fled to a desert town to escape a savage mobster seeking revenge. The safe haven in the desert proved to be as dangerous as the city. With the guidance of an old man who walked in from the wilderness, David found the answers he had been seeking and the strength to confront his enemy.
