"Big Eden" is set in a tiny fictional town in northwestern Montana and follows the story of Henry Hart, a successful New York artist who returns to the town of his childhood to care for the ailing grandfather who raised him. Back in Big Eden, Henry must come to terms with his relationship to Dean Stewart, his best friend from high school, as well as the object of his unrequited love.
But it is also the story of Pike Dexter, a shy, unassuming Native American owner of the town's general store, who is as surprised as anyone to find himself falling in love with Henry, and the town that conspires to bring Pike and Henry together.
