      The Joyton family runs a station for the famed Butterfield Stage Line on a mountain pass in southern Arizona Territory. It is a pleasant, solitary life until a stagecoach arrives with a dead man inside. They are told the mysterious man accidentally shot himself. But 14-year-old Drew Joyton suspects foul play. A new family arrives and begins to build a store, even though there is no town nearby. Meanwhile, a dangerous stranger appears. Then hostile Apaches pin down two wagon drivers headed for the pass. As Drew and his sister Blaze risk their lives to help the wounded men to safety, their family comes together to conquer some of the dangers of the untamed Western frontier. Through all these adventures, the Joytons' unreserved commitment to one another and their unflagging faith inspire those who meet them.
