A Glacier's Guide to Dying [Michelle Porter] *Release Date Sept. 8 2026*

A young Métis man searching for his missing father finds himself arguing with a dying glacier in this compelling, profane, and ultimately hopeful novel about the burdens and blessings of inheritance, from the award-winning author of A Grandmother Begins the Story.

Robbie is torn: between trying to "rescue" his stubborn Métis mother—determined to stick with her abusive second husband and her home in the path of ravenous wildfires in Canada—and the quest to find his father, a white man often absent due to mental health challenges but now long missing in the mountains south of the border.

After he and his American uncle find themselves following a very pregnant bison up the slopes of a huge glacier named Omega, Robbie must also navigate between fear and wonder as he starts hearing the ancient voice of Omega giving him guidance. Has Robbie accessed a deep connection to the land, one he can trust? Or is he succumbing to the same illness that had wreaked havoc on his father's life?
