Mary Anderson Parks' debut novel, The Circle Leads Home, tells the story of Katherine, a 32-year-old American Indian whose husband died from a drug overdose two years earlier. Now she finds herself working as a legal secretary to support herself and their sons, ages 9 and 13. She invariably falls for the wrong men, but this time, when she finds herself in an abusive relationship, she feels the need to run. She takes her family to the reservation she fled some fourteen years prior, only to find that her people's traditional tribal values are being challenged by the money-making lure of selling off old-growth timber and operating casinos. The Circle Leads Home is the third title in the Colorado University Press' Women West series. The series includes both fiction and non-fiction titles dedicated to the exciting contributions of women in the American West.
