Padraig McCoy is the Bad Boy of the McCoy family.
Up to now, his father's money has gotten him out of scrapes …until the day Padraig commits one offence too many and finds himself a remittance man, paid by his father to leave home and never return.
Still in shock, the young exile finds himself on a boat to America where he comes to rest in the Nebraska Great Plains. Knowing nothing about cows doesn't stop Padraig from hiring on as a ranch hand, however, and on a trail drive to Sedalia, Fate steps in and changes his life forever.
It takes a few years, but, thanks to a cattle stampede, an influenza epidemic, and a determined young woman arriving on a Wells Fargo stage, the ne'er-do-well from Tipperary is about to become the man he should be.
