When his parents are murdered, the upset Darkly takes off into the woods, ultimately meeting the sultry Callie, whose husband is away. While Darkly stays at her house, the conflict between his religious convictions and his carnal desires begin to tear at him, and the return of Callie's husband does not assuage matters.
