Just when you think you have nothing left to lose, they come for your dreams.

Humanity has nearly destroyed its world through global warming, but now an even greater evil lurks. The Indigenous people of North America are being hunted and harvested for their bone marrow, which carries the key to recovering something the rest of the population has lost: the ability to dream. In this dark world, Frenchie and his companions struggle to survive as they make their way up north to the old lands. For now, survival means staying hidden - but what they don't know is that one of them holds the secret to defeating the marrow thieves.

Red Rooms, The Girl Who Grew A Galaxy, A Gentle Habit, The Marrow Thieves, and Empire of Wild are among her novels. She was selected Emerging Artist of the Year at the Ontario Premier's Award for Excellence in the Arts in 2014, and she became the Toronto Public Library's first Indigenous Writer in Residence in 2015. NPR, School Library Journal, the New York Public Library, the Globe & Mail, Quill & Quire, and the CBC all named it as a Book of the Year.
