Hockey = Canada. Sadly, it also means Residential Schools and abuse. Oh Canada, I love you, but you have a dark past. The best moments of this book occur when Indian Horse is on the ice. The description of what happens in the mind of a highly-skilled hockey player is interesting (especially for someone who has never played). The abuse story-line is subtle, but in the end as tragic as you would expect. A good, not great, book.
