But he’s never met the once-legendary hockey player. Even after Gerry, as an adult, reconnects with his Anishinaabe relatives on his dad’s side of the family, Dale remains a mystery — a missing puzzle piece and a mythic villain. It’s not until his late twenties, juggling a commercial pilot career, a troubled marriage, and a young son of his own, that Gerry gets a call from Dale. Meeting for the first time in a dodgy sports bar in Toronto, Dale pitches Gerry on a dangerous but lucrative business venture, setting in motion an unlikely partnership that will test how far both father and son will go in the name of family.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eDrawing on both Anishinaabe storytelling and film noir influences, \u003ci\u003eThe Return of the Nish \u003c\/i\u003eexplores the tragedy of lost opportunities, the cyclical nature of time, and how people and places return to us in new lights.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tyson Stewart (CA)","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback With flaps","offer_id":43328467173443,"sku":"9781770868380","price":24.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0678\/3523\/2323\/files\/BNCImageAPI_8af8f661-23cb-4cfb-b643-2d60f1fd14f8.jpg?v=1780147716","url":"https:\/\/thebookshop613.ca\/products\/9781770868380","provider":"The Bookshop 613","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
