Having been abandoned as a child with no explanation of her past, Joelle is intrigued when a classmate tells her that she looks like a girl in a painting of the Narragansett Indians of Rhode Island and so begins to look into their history and the story of the Crying Rocks to see if she is possibly connected to this tribe.
