Daunis Fontaine, the product of a short-lived romance between a wealthy white young woman and a member of the Ojibwe tribe, doesn't feel fully accepted in either her "Zhaaganaash" family or Ojibwe one, but she tries to fit in the best she can and tries to honor her native heritage as best as she can. After her best friend is killed by an ex-
boyfriend high on meth, she discovers the handsome new Cherokee guy in town is an undercover FBI agent, and she's recruited to try to find out who is producing the high potency meth that is tragically affecting her Ojibwe community and others like it. What she finds out will have her wondering who she can trust and where to place her loyalty. Firekeeper's Daughter is not only a gripping mystery but an outstanding coming-of-age novel steeped in Ojibwe tradition.
