John Ridd is the son of a farmer who was murdered in cold blood by one of the notorious Doone clan. Battling his desire for revenge, John also becomes a farmer and takes good care of his family. He falls in love with Lorna, a girl he meets by accident, who turns out to be not only the granddaughter of Sir Ensor Doone (lord of the Doones), but destined, against her will, to marry the impetuous, menacing, and now jealous heir of the Doone Valley, Carver Doone.
