Five years after the death of his father in 1905, Charlie Bueller finds himself cast out of his family home by an interloper. Charlie's dark-skin sets him visibly apart from the rest of his white family. When a Con Man courts and marries Charlie's mother, the young man is immediately cast out for his dark-skin.
Now, on his own, except for his best friend, Charlie leaves to find his own place in the world. The two friends find work with the railroad in St. Joseph, Missouri. They are hired to lay sections of rail. When they're told to pick up supplies like a hammer and overalls, Charlie comes face to face with a beautiful young white woman. He tries to keep the young woman at arms length, but she's persistent in pursuing him. How much more will our young protagonist have to endure. Can Charlie manage to find a way to undo the harm of his mother's new husband? How will he reconnect with his family and what about the young white woman?
