 Henry is a bible salesman. Clearwater is a car thief. Henry needs a ride. Clearwater needs an assistant. The Second World War is over, and nineteen-year-old Henry Dampier walks the roads of North Carolina, selling bibles. When Clearwater offers him a lift, Henry thinks it is a lucky day that only gets better with Clearwater’s “confession” of being an FBI agent in need of aid. Henry joyfully seizes the opportunity to lead a double life as bible salesman and G-man. During his hilarious and scary adventures, we learn of Henry's fundamentalist youth, an upbringing that hasn't prepared him for his new life. He falls in love and questions his religious training. With the fun and games over, Henry is on his own in a way he never imagined.
