Slag: An Ecological Thriller

by David Kendall

Inama Meena is a dalit, an untouchable born to be spurned by the rest of Indian society, bound by a belief that he earned this life of lowly drudgery in a previous incarnation. He immigrates to Canada and works as a street cleaner. Can a person so warped of spirit resurrect himself in the ‘land of the free’?
One day, in a Spadina Avenue gutter, his broom unearths a severed finger. It happens outside an up-market Chinese restaurant. So starts Inama’s incursion into the dark world of the illegal shark fin trade.
