"Joanne Shaver was a troubled teenager who met an untimely death. From a normal, loving home she ran away to the streets of Calgary. This compassionate and articulate account of her life, which ended tragically in murder, explores the \"kid out of control\" and, as a case study, shows the alienation of a young person, which happens all too frequently." . . . . . . "This is a portrait of Joanne Shaver, a troubled teenager who met a violent death at the age of seventeen.
