As a young woman, Avery's life in Eastern Oregon ranch country is filled with an acquired family: her partner Davis; Lovell, a ranch hand and father figure; Lennie, Lovell's daughter; and Davis's grandparents. Another terrible loss triggers and revives a familiar sense of guilt, one she has carried since childhood over the disintegration of her family."--Page 4 of cover."
