Set on the southwestern ranches in the years before the Second World War, 'The Crossing' follows the fortunes of sixteen-year-old Billy and his younger brother Boyd.

When Billy comes back to his own home he finds himself and his world irrevocably changed. His loss of innocence has come at a price, and once again the border beckons with its desolate beauty and cruel promise.'Admirers of 'All the Pretty Horses' will need little encouragement...McCarthy speaks to us in the thrilling, apocalyptic tones of an Old Testament prophet.
