Description:
<p>Nyla has an affinity to fire. A neglected teen in a small northern town&mdash;trying to escape a mother battling her own terrors&mdash;she is kicked out and struggles through life on the&nbsp;streets. Desperate for love,&nbsp;Nyla&nbsp;accidentally sets fire to her ex&rsquo;s building and&nbsp;is then incarcerated for arson. Through community-led diversion, Nyla finds herself on a reserve as their firekeeper. But when climate change&ndash;induced wildfires threaten her new home, she knows intimately how to fight back.</p>

<p>The fourth book from acclaimed writer Kat&#322;&#305;&agrave; brings a Northern Indigenous perspective to the destructive effects of ongoing colonialism. Displaying Kat&#322;&#305;&agrave;&rsquo;s enthralling storytelling style,&nbsp;<em>Firekeeper</em>&nbsp;is a coming-of-age tale that addresses intergenerational trauma by reclaiming culture, belonging and identity.</p>

<p>Join Nyla on her healing journey through the fire to sacred waters.</p>
