Teammates
$20.00Three teenage friends on a college rugby team in the shrinking community of English Montreal – three friends each facing wildly different fates. This is the story of Bill Putnam, whose downward trajectory we first begin to trace in the late 1970s, and his friends Rudy and Max. Teammates, their paths will cross in ways they never dreamt of in the happier days of their youth. Colin McGregor, former newspaper editor, teacher and long-term federal inmate, is a regular contributor to Reflet de Société, a Quebec youth magazine with over half a million readers in print and online. He has written this novel of atonement and hope to represent the journey taken by many from light to dark, from society to prison – and back out again. Part fantasy, always very real, this work will move and delight, will make you think and, perhaps, will lead you to dream.

The last wave of our story
$26.00What was supposed to be a wonderful weekend on a fishing trip for a family of five people in the Côte-Nord region turned into a nightmare as violent winds surged through the waters of Lake Cacaoui. Will they be able to survive the immensity of this lake? Will they live through the freezing cold night in the forest? A wave of human solidarity will help them face the physical and mental trauma that this tragedy caused. Despite this beautiful solidarity, a woman will have to form a shell around herself, since humanity also has a side to it that’s gloomy, and sometimes even cruel. In this era of social media, she’ll sadly have to come face to face with completely senseless cruelty. Will she have the strength to get through it all?
