Lipsha Morrissey is a Native American Indian with healing powers who lost his powers by wasting his time in the big cities. One day, he receives news from his grandmother, Lulu Lamartine that his father is wanted by the police. This is why he decides to go back to the reservation. It is a very hard decision for him as his home place does not bring happy memories. On the contrary, all his life he has been trying to understand an awful happening from his childhood: his mother tied him in a sack and threw him in a slough where he would have drowned if it was not for his huge luck that brought his rescue by a mere chance.
