Abandoned during the Depression, Shelton Lafleur is adopted by a wealthy, benevolent white family and raised as an adored son. But at eight years old, a tumble from a tree in a New Orleans park cripples him for life. Taken to an orphanage, he is inexplicably rescued by a man well versed in outsmarting a community divided by race.
