麥克德莫特,內布拉斯加州,是一個位於波尼河谷中的宜人、風景如畫的西部牧牛小鎮——正是人們逃離繁忙都市生活的理想去處。這裡也是自19世紀末以來在這片令人難忘的大草原上安家者的歸宿。對兩者而言,麥克德莫特對當地居民意義非凡,而對那些尋求新生活的人來說,則代表著截然不同的東西。隨著當地居民與外來者的到來產生衝突,一名本地記者揭露了一場醫療醜聞,這起事件凸顯了這個分裂社區所面臨的問題。在兩名男子死亡後,由年邁但強勢的地區檢察官負責調解新舊西部利益之間的衝突。而瑟斯頓家族,作為小鎮首位居民的後裔,則以自己的方式對抗那些威脅摧毀小鎮的力量。這是一個新舊利益碰撞的故事,也是西部平原小鎮面對「進步」力量的寫照。
