A True Story of Racism, Indifference and the Pursuit of Justice for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls
The book investigates the haunting and tragic history of the Highway of Tears, a remote stretch of road in British Columbia, Canada, where numerous Indigenous women and girls have disappeared or been murdered over several decades.

The narrative highlights the resilience of the victims' families and communities as they seek justice and accountability, while also addressing broader issues of violence against Indigenous women across Canada.
