Ezra Cloud hates living in Northeast Minneapolis. His father is a professor of their language, Ojibwe, at a local college, so they have to be there. But Ezra hates the dirty, polluted snow around them. He hates being away from the rez at Nigigoonsiminikaaning First Nation. And he hates the local bully in his neighborhood, Matt Schroeder, who terrorizes Ezra and his friend Nora George.

Ezra gets into a terrible fight with Matt at school defending Nora, and that same night, Matt’s house burns down. Instantly, Ezra becomes a prime suspect.

Knowing he won’t get a fair deal, and knowing his innocence, Ezra’s family sends him away to run traplines with his grandfather in a remote part of Canada, while the investigation is ongoing. But Matt is looking for him …

From acclaimed author Anton Treuer comes a novel that’s both taut thriller and a raw, tender coming-of-age story, about one Ojibwe boy learning to love himself through the love of his family around him.©2024 Anton Treuer (P)2024 Recorded Books

It is hard to believe that Anton Treuer has never written fiction before because this is a moving story filled with humor, adventure, sadness, hope, and most importantly, love. The characters are well crafted and you come to care deeply for them as the story progresses. The characters of Emma and Liam share a beautiful love story and Liam is as funny a character as I have seen in fiction in a long, long time. This might be a young readers book but it moved this 54 year old man to tears and made me laugh out loud as well. This is a very authentic story as well because there may be no one who knows more about Ojibwe culture than Treuer. I can't recommend this book highly enough, and hearing the author speaking Ojibwe through his characters adds to the work. This would be a fantastic addition to any library or classroom and I, for one, hope the author is just getting started.

A very moving adventure story.
