"A startling tour de force." -BookLife Reviews As a fierce nor'easter bears down on her Massachusetts town, Fiona Richter places a frantic 911 call. Her husband, Simon, eighty years old and suffering from dementia, has gone missing from the house-along with his clarinet. So begins The Singing Stick, the story of a son, his long-dead mother, and the music that anchors them both in times of great unmooring. "Heartrending story of an Indigenous family's multigenerational trauma . . . a startling tour de force." -BookLife Reviews (Editor's Pick) "A deeply thoughtful novel about finding one's voice when all has seemingly been lost." -Indie Today (five stars) "Cole-Dai confronts harsh realities with the deftness of a true storyteller. A remarkable achievement." -Colin Mustful, founder/editor, History Through Fiction
