About the book
Born into a Metis family of Cree, Scottish, English and French descent but never told of his heritage, Gregory Scofield knew he was different. His father disappeared after he was born, and at five he was separated from his mother and sent to live with strangers and extended family. Only his love for his sensitive but battered mother and his Aunty Georgina, a neighbor who befriended him, kept him alive. This is Gregory's traumatic, tender and hopeful story of his fight to rediscover and accept himself in the face of a heritage with diametrically opposed backgrounds.
