Abstract

In 1990, on a November night that hit minus 28 degrees Celsius, seventeen-year-old Neil Stonechild disappeared only blocks from his mother's home. His frozen body was found three days later, eight kilometers from where he was last seen in downtown Saskatoon. With exclusive co-operation from the Stonechild family, and other key players, and information not yet revealed in the press coverage, "The Starlight Tour" is an engrossing and damning portrait of rogue cops, racism, obstruction of justice and justice denied, not only to a boy and his mother but to the entire country's native community. Print run 10,000.
