| Annotation | Abruptly widowed at 44, Mattie not only has to struggle to keep the family ranch running, but she also must come to terms with hurtful and confounding revelations regarding her late husband. Her college-age daughter, Shelley, moves back home to mourn and help out, but her life has its own difficulties. They are joined by Dawn, a gifted hired hand with a mystical streak. The lives of the women change significantly with the arrival of Elton, a reticent teenaged Native American runaway, who becomes indispensable to them but whose loyalty nearly leads to tragedy. Contains strong language and descriptions of sex. Colorado Book Award Winner, 2004. |
