In spring of 1858 Thompson Grey, a young farmer, travels to his
father's estate seeking funds to expand his holdings. Far
overstaying his visit, he returns home to find that his absence has
contributed to a devastating family tragedy. Haunted by remorse,
Thompson abandons his farm and begins a westward exile in the
attempt to outpace his grief.Unwittingly, he finds himself at
journey's end in the one place where his strongest temptations are
able to over take him and once again put him to the test. Set
against the backdrop of the frontier during the years just
preceding the Civil War, Crossing Purgatory tells a story of
unprincipled ambition, guilt, and the price one man is willing to
pay for atonement.
