The story
Twelve-year-old Jeff Blaine lives in the small western town of Plainsville, where he is being reared by his aunt, Ruth Sewall, who operates a tinsmith business. Jeff's mother died when he was four months old, and his father, Nate, left shortly thereafter and became an outlaw. One day, Nate returns and tells Ruth that he has recently been involved in a gunfight.
