THE BREAK

 Katerena Vermette. The Break. Anansi, 2016.


Re-reading this book for the U of M book club. Like it even more now that I look more closely. The ghost of Raine leading off, then switching to Kookum for the last section. The family with similar looks, habits, experiences. The absent fathers. The gangs. The Metis cop. The break in the case, when we break free of assumptions.
