Granny had always said that life is like a circle, that we experience our life in cycles, but Corinne felt stuck. She didn't think that she would ever have to go back to the Havenwood reservation after finally getting away for college and grad school, but here she was, back and having to face the humiliation that she'd thought she'd left behind all those years ago. She returns, however, to find that much has changed and that although she thinks that she has too, life has a new lesson for her.
