Onesummer they are sent from the genteel Los Angeles suburbthat is their home to backcountry Colorado, wheretheir uncle Claude has a ranch. There the children encounteran enchanting new world-savage, direct, beautiful,untamed-to which, over the next few years, they willreturn regularly, enjoying a delicious double life. And yetat the same time this other sphere, about which they areboth so passionate, threatens to come between their passionateattachment to each other.
