Plot

A crisis has exploded on an isolated Montana mountaintop: when a local sheriff is mistakenly ordered to serve an eviction notice to town recluse Glenn Ables, a routine Monday morning turns into an unimaginable catastrophe. Ables, a notorious federal fugitive wanted for illegal arms trafficking, responds to the notice by shooting two policemen and barricading his family inside his cabin atop Paradise Ridge.
