Book Club | “The Berry Pickers” by Amanda Peters

A four-year-old indigenous girl goes missing from the blueberry fields of Maine, sparking a tragic mystery that haunts the survivors, unravels a community, and remains unsolved for nearly 50 years. The story follows both the child’s Mi’kmaq family and the white family which kidnaped her. Author Amanda Peters has both Mi’kmaq and settler ancestry. She will appear via Zoom to answer our questions.
