''I loved this... very tough and very real.'' - Margaret Atwood

When Stella, a young mother in an Indigenous community, looks out her window one wintry evening and spots someone being attacked on the Break - a barren field on an isolated strip of land outside her house - she calls the policeBy the time help arrives, all that is left of the struggle is blood on the snow.
