A naive young minister, intent on saving souls, heads west with his new bride. In the course of his work, he is murdered. Alone, his wife finds the strength to not only survive, but to carry on her husband's mission. Befriended by two cowboys, she makes her way to Clarendon, Texas, a town established by Methodist ministers, and dubbed "Saint's Roost" due to its piety in the midst of the wild cow towns of the area.
