Plot summary
Jack Duncan, a recent high school graduate from a blue-collar East Texas family, falls for Ginny Peterson, who has come home after four years at boarding school and plans to attend Vassar. Ginny's father Alex is the town banker, and he objects strenuously to the romance. He and Jack's mother Babs were high school sweethearts. When summer ends, the pair marry in Louisiana, where a seventeen-year-old needs no parental consent. Jack takes a job in the oil fields, and Ginny earns money doing household work at the boarding house where they live. Alex hires a private eye, Ray Logan, to track them down.

SPOILER
Two different endings of Liar's Moon were filmed and distributed. In the original, Ginny dies from complications after the unsafe abortion; this was deemed too dark for test audiences, so the happier ending where she lives was screened in some theaters instead.
