Rancher Gideon Fry, cowboy Johnny McCloud and Molly Taylor describe the same lifelong relationship from three different perspectives. Their affection, jealousy and reluctance to make final choices bind them together across decades in rural north Texas.

Each narrator interprets the others imperfectly, so the history of the triangle changes as the voice changes. Ranch work, marriage, parenthood and ageing turn an unresolved youthful attachment into a family story about the cost of waiting for life to become simpler.
