A moonshiner's downtrodden wife. A federal agent in search of illegal stills. A love neither expected. A situation about to explode.

When her cruel husband, Hamp, kidnaps Mac, an Fbi agent working undercover as a whiskey revenuer, Merdie Lee is given the job of caring for him. Against all common sense, Mac and Merdie Lee, a midwife and aspiring country-western singer, fall in love. Mac becomes determined to rescue her from her dangerous, abusive situation. Tensions boil out of control after a blackmailing sheriff pushes Hamp over the edge.

No one may come out of the pine woods of South Georgia alive.
