Book description
Thirteen-year-old Casey Templeton has recently moved with his family
to the southeastern Alberta town of Richford. One night Casey seeks
refuge from a snowstorm in an abandoned farmhouse and stumbles upon
his nearly frozen, unconscious science teacher, Mr. Deverell. Casey
attempts to revive his teacher and searches the house for something to
make a fire with. In the attic he makes a frightening discovery -- a
sophisticated office filled with computers, a printer, and racist
posters and flyers!
Richford is harbouring a vicious cell of white racists who are
targeting everyone they deem "alien." Somehow Mr. Deverell
is connected to the dangerous organization, and so, too, are other
residents, young and old, in Casey's new town.
Soon the RCMP and Casey's hacker brother, Hank, get involved in the
mystery, but its Casey who leads the investigation into a warped world
where hate is marketed on the Internet and innocent people are preyed
on by bigots and bullies blinkered by their own prejudices.
Gwen Molnar paints and writes in Edmonton, Alberta.
