Johnny Dane, the heir, got knocked off the throne. Augie isn't his daddy. He hasn't a clue what to do now. With no relationship with the other Dane children, Johnny is hanging out in a cave in the woods.

Royce doesn't want the old place, Gentry lives in Alaska and Crystal married the sheriff. She doesn't need the land. Winter is on the way. The only family he has left is his momma, but he can't live with her. Momma is at the old Reynolds home place with Royce, who wants his hide nailed to a barn door.

Muriel ran from him years ago. All his fault. Never once has she tried to make contact. Will she help him now? Johnny is about to roll the dice on his last chance.
