Daunis should be starting her first classes away at college, her first steps to becoming a medical doctor, her dream, but instead, she is home, after a tragedy has struck her family. As an unenrolled tribal member and the product of a teenage relationship between a wealthy rich White girl and a Native hockey star, Daunis has always had to feel her way carefully through her two families. And now a new version of a toxic drug is striking down people she has known and loved all her life, and she is asked to help with the undercover investigation.

A thriller. A story centering on Obijwe culture. The wild ebb and flow of young love. Hockey life. All somehow bound into a unique coming-of-age story.

I can't recommend this one enough.
