How a people die  Cover Image Book Book

How a people die / Alan Fry.

Fry, Alan, (author.).

Summary:

"It's Saturday morning on the Kwatsi Reserve. The citizens are red-eyed and bleary, their shabby houses littered with empty bottles. But this Saturday is different. Last night while her parents partied, a baby girl died in her crib, her body crusted with filth and sores. RCMP Corporal Thompson stirs up a hornet's nest when he charges the infant's parents with criminal neglect. But who, or what, really killed Annette Joseph? 'Tell us how a people die,' one character says, 'and we can tell you how a people live.'"-- back cover.
