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, and they warn Viney to mend her ways.

Seeking revenge and the freedom to love James, Viney joins a counter-vigilante group. She plots a trap for the White Caps but finds herself tied to a post, with a whip racing toward her.
