War correspondent Leo Ericson returns to his hometown of Bluestone Lake, Minnesota, when his parents notify him his young son is having trouble fitting in at school.

But he needs a place for his son, a place where he'll be with family, while Leo does his job. He'll stay long enough to get Max settled, then go back to work.School counselor Trinity Madison watches Leo struggle with his son, trying to overcome the mental barricade she's erected against the man who sent his son away when he's perfectly capable of caring for the child.
