Firekeeper’s Daughter
A biracial Ojibwe teenager becomes an FBI informant investigating a drug ring inside her own community.
Daunis is biracial Ojibwe, unenrolled in her tribe, and about to defer college when she witnesses a murder and is recruited as an FBI informant investigating meth in her community. Boulley, herself Ojibwe, packs the book with Anishinaabe language, ceremony and the specific politics of tribal enrolment, and is unflinching about violence against Native women. A thriller that carries a great deal more than its plot.
