保罗和朱莉·勒布朗从新奥尔良搬到了科罗拉多州，留下了一个充满麻烦的世界。在丹佛定居后，他们实现了收养一个婴儿的梦想，一个被遗弃在商场里的婴儿。他们给养女取名为劳拉，随着时间的推移，她似乎成了一个近乎完美的孩子；健康、深情、聪明。他们逐渐意识到劳拉在许多方面与其他孩子不同，但他们没有意识到她有多么不同。劳拉和她的父母在丹佛和夸里镇之间往返，夸里镇是落基山脉的一个小镇，保罗和朱莉在那里经营着一家企业。当拥有邻近牧场的前囚犯比利·里德（Billy Reed）建立了一个由狂热的白人权力倡导者组成的公社时，他们近乎田园诗般的生活受到了威胁。当他院子里的一个年轻女人开始和一个为勒布朗工作的西班牙人约会时，他变得愤怒了。当查尔斯和比利发生冲突时，冲突变成了私人的。这对比利来说很糟糕，但勒布朗家族意识到他们正处于里德的危险之中，里德一心想复仇。
Paul and Julie LeBlanc move from New Orleans to Colorado, leaving a world of troubles behind them. Settled in Denver, they achieve their dream of adopting a baby, a fondling who was left in a mall. They name their adopted daughter Lara, and as time goes by she seems to be an almost perfect child; healthy, affectionate and smart. They gradually become aware that Lara is different from other children in a number of ways, but they do not realize just how different she is. Lara and her parents split their time between Denver and Quarrytown, a small town in the Rockies where Paul and Julie own a business. Their almost idyllic existence is threatened when Billy Reed, and ex-con who owns an adjacent ranch, establishes a commune of fanatic white power advocates. He becomes enraged when a young woman from his compound starts dating a Hispanic who works for the LeBlancs. The conflict becomes personal when Charles and Billy have a confrontation. It goes badly for Billy, but the LeBlancs realize that they are in danger from Reed, who is bent on revenge.
