Karen McBride is an Algonquin Anishinaabe writer from the Timiskaming First Nation in the territory that is now Quebec. The quarry that's been lying unsullied for over a century on her father's property is stirring the old magic that crosses the boundaries between this world and the next. With the aid of Nanabush, Hazel must unravel a web of deceit that, if left untouched, could destroy her family and her home on both sides of the Medicine Wheel. Soon Hazel learns that there's more at play than just her own sadness and doubt. From what, exactly? Sure, her dad's been dead for almost two years and she hasn't quite reconciled that grief, but is that worth the time of an Algonquin demigod? He tells her he's here to help her, save her. Since coming home to Spirit Bear Point First Nation, Hazel Ellis has been dreaming of an old crow. An ancient troublemaker with the power to do great things, only he doesn't want to put in the work. Like lit sage in a windowless room or aluminum foil on a metal filling. A name that has a certain weight on the tongue-a taste.
