Summary:
"... a historical account of Dr. John Butt, who was the chief medical examiner of the Shearwater military base back in 1998. It was in that year Butt faced the most challenging job of his career: going through the dismembered body parts of the 229 people who died in the Swissair Flight 111 tragedy that crashed on the coast of Nova Scotia on Sept. 2, 1998. Throughout this gruesome process, it leaves him transformed as it starts his journey of self-discovery and self-acceptance as a gay man."
CBC Award-winning author Gina Leola Woolsey tugs at your heartstrings with written portraits of people striving to find love, self-acceptance, and belonging in an ever changing world. She left her corporate career mid-life to pursue an education in creative writing, earning a BFA from the University of British Columbia and an MFA from the University of King’s College. She lives wherever the narrative takes her. Currently, her time is split between small-town Alberta, downtown Montreal, and her hometown of Vancouver.
