Summary:

"When an Indigenous group demands the local schools name be changed, rifts are formed within the community and the legacies of who we honour from history are challenged. This mystery/adventure set in a small BC lumber town is a fictional account of an event that is similar to many across the country - a sudden conflict over a school name and the historic figure it recognizes."-- Provided by publisher.
