It's cold, he's sick, and the little food he has is spoiled. When the coast is clear, Frenchie starts running north. Mitch makes Frenchie hide in a tree and sacrifices himself. Frenchie and his older brother, Mitch, find a bag of Doritos, but the sound attracts Recruiters.
His mom became depressed, and Recruiters got her. Not long ago, Frenchie’s dad left with the Council to try to convince the Governors to stop the atrocities happening at the residential schools. The story delves into how he found Miig, the middle-aged Anishnaabe man who becomes Frenchie’s surrogate father figure. The novel begins with the “coming-to story” of Frenchie, an eleven-year-old boy growing up in the Métis Indigenous community in Canada.
