A communist, strategist, and bibliophile, he led Métis and First Nations to rebel against government and church oppression. Brady's success made politicians and clergy fear him, and he had enemies everywhere. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn 1967, while prospecting in Saskatchewan with Cree Band Councillor and fellow activist Absolom Halkett, both men vanished without a trace from their remote lakeside camp. For 50 years rumours swirled of secret mining interests, political intrigue, assassination, and murder. Cold Case North is the story of how a small team, with the help of a local Indigenous community, exposed police failure in the original investigation, discovered new clues and testimony, and gathered the pieces of the North's most enduring missing persons puzzle.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michael Nest,Deanna Reder,Eric Bell\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Regina Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/07\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.69lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.00h x 5.00w x 0.74d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780889777491","brand":"University of Regina Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46858679976073,"sku":"9780889777491","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_a8da838e-508d-4580-a9e0-3796bdc5573a.jpg?v=1780984162","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/cold-case-north-the-search-for-james-brady-and-absolom-halkett-9780889777491","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
