Myth Makers is a powerful story that measures the worth of two worlds...This story is epic, outstanding, a bridge between north and south. And through art one can discover its true center.-Reader's Favourite Reviews
Few have even heard of the Sixties Scoop, but for Margaret Swiftfox, it meant being taken from her home and sent south to live with two old sisters. It meant learning early that she had to keep her aboriginal origins hidden.
Now in her forties, Margaret is a successful businesswoman and believes she has moved beyond the past, but when Elizabeth Lange plows into her world, she realizes that is a myth.
Kooky Elizabeth. Flaky Elizabeth. Failed Elizabeth. Elizabeth Lange has dealt with labels her whole life. While the curator position in the Northwest Territories gives her the chance to make up for what was taken from her, the desperate move is not for the fainthearted.
Right off the bat, conflict between the two women about the NWT's arts leads to hostile face-offs. But when they travel across the Arctic, circumstance pushes both Elizabeth and Margaret to reveal their pasts and the legacy it's left behind. Can this new-found friendship help them heal its trauma?
