Ten years ago Joe Lakota had left behind his small Oregon town and the only woman he'd every truly loved for the empty promises of the big city. Now he's returned, seeking to raise his young son with values you can only find at home, and longing to rekindle the passion he'd once had with beautiful Marilee Nelson. But Marilee isn't anything like the gentle yet self-assured girl he'd left behind. In her place is a woman tormented by a secret she refuses to share, even with Joe.
From the award-winning Ender's Game on, each of Card's last three novels has featured a secular saint, less a character than a catalyst to galvanize those around him into reexamining the thorny moral tangles in which they live.
Ten years after leaving small town life for the big city, Joe Lakota has returned to his Oregon hometown to raise his son and romance a woman he loved long ago.
