Description
During a stay on an Indian Reservation, Dr. Michael Yanuck was caught in a flood. Unbeknownst to him, at the same time that he was struggling in the river, a rash of suicides took the lives of several young people. Stunned by the news, he participated in tribal efforts and spiritual ceremonies to heal the people - on this Reservation with the highest suicide rate in the world. Follow him as he shares his journey of life and death, and artfully transports the reader to a world of beauty, of suffering, and of transformation.
