Hija de la guardiana del fuego

An award-winning and acclaimed novel about racism coming soon to Netflix.
One of the New York Times' best young adult books of all time.

As an unofficial member of her Native American tribe, a biracial girl, and the product of a scandal, Daunis Fontaine never quite fit in. She dreams of leaving her past behind, starting fresh, and studying medicine, but a tragedy forces her to care for her fragile mother on the Ojibwe reservation and put her future on hold. The only positive is meeting Jamie, but she feels he is a boy who is hiding something...

One day she witnesses a murder that places her at the center of a criminal investigation. A lethal drug threatens her community, and Daunis trusts that her knowledge of chemistry and traditional medicine will help her find the culprit. But the search for the truth is cruel: Daunis must learn what it means to be a strong Ojibwe woman and how far she is willing to risk to protect her people.
