Twelve years after a native Ojibway elder gave Myrya Blackstone her missing native ’medicine’ of a hawk, a protector, she is a partner in a security business in Toronto. She contacts her old boss, a mentor, after her friend on a Reserve was attacked, requiring surgery. Plus images of the white teenager that slashed Myrya’s face when she was a teenager resurface. Four women seek justice: a black woman, a white woman with a transgender woman lover and a First Nations woman.The mentor set up two sting operations: one infiltrating a gang in Sault Ste. Marie involved in arson, loan sharking and gun running. The other, he hired two adult entertainment twins to drug the ’slasher’. The sister of the ’slasher’, discovered her father with dementia is gay, and in his will requires that he be buried in a small pre-Canada Jewish cemetery near Algonquin Park. A discovery by ground sensing radar at the cemetery established a link to the elder that said a hawk would bring her messages and protection. The two sting operations unite, allowing the four women to exact justice.
