Description
When Viney Walker’s long, absent father arrives in the 19th century Utopian Community of Rugby, TN, he begs her to return with him to the Great Smoky Mountains. Viney’s sister, Lizzie urges her to go, because a new setting will help Viney heal from a broken engagement. Viney acquiesces and in her new home, she meets her Walker cousins, including handsome and brawny James. The couple’s romance angers the White Caps, a vigilante group that whips “lewd” women. They warn Viney to mend her ways, including encouraging her cousins to sell their weavings.
Seeking revenge and the freedom to love James, Viney joins a counter vigilante group. She plots a trap for the White Cap, but finds herself tied to a post, with a whip racing toward her.
