A Good Man

There is no hero's welcome for combat veteran, Jim Montgomery, when he returns from World War II to a family in disarray. His father is dying; his mother threatens to leave; and, their Colorado cattle ranch has fallen on hard times. Jim's younger brother, Massey, and sister, Samantha, seek an easier lifestyle than working on the family ranch. Eventually this leaves only Jim's youngest brother, Randy, as his one loyal sibling. Jim must devote his life to Randy and to the ranch, with no time to recover from the war. Romance blooms when he meets a beautiful widow who 'œinspires'� him. And in his 'œsenior'� years, Jim is enthralled by a struggling Indian woman and her daughter. Yet, for every step forward, there are steps backwards as his deserting siblings return to demand more from Jim's ranch profits. Worse, when fortune evolves from Jim's hard work, his estate is threatened by Massey and Samantha.In spite of the odds, Jim strives to be a good man to all who come his way.
