Abstract
"Robert Royer was raised by his grandmother in a white, middle-class suburb of Edmonton, a world of neat houses and manicured lawns, of well-heeled respectability and quiet Sundays. However, when Robert was ten, his grandmother died suddenly, and his world changed completely."--Front flap.
