Leo Desroches
Created by Wayne Arthurson

LEO DESROCHES, the son of Cree and French-Canadian parents, is a compulsive gambler who's pretty much screwed up everything in his life, but he's begun the slow road back, taking a gig working for Edmonton's biggest paper, covering their "Aboriginal Issues" beat.

A fresh voice, a unique perspective and an intriguing setting. I'm gonna be watching this one.

Wayne Arthurson, like Leo, is the son of Cree and French-Canadian parents. He's worked as a newspaper reporter, drummer for a rockband and as a freelance journalist. He lives in Edmonton.
