"After tracing the house she inherited from her grandmother to the selling of land stolen from the Ute Indians, Denise must decide whether to stand up for her family or her convictions. She wrestles with the guilt of inheriting this history after hearing her best friend's grandmother's Ute family story. In addition, since as a teacher responsible for teaching state history, she confronts her curriculum's story of colonization. As Denise gradually reinterprets the actions of her ancestors and weighs possible responses, she must figure out what family love and loyalty mean"--Publisher's description.
