Blue Vengeance follows her younger brother Danny and Cookie's friend Janine through a lazy Winnipeg summer, as they plot to kill the despised teacher they blame for Cookie's death.

As he grapples with grief and love, loyalty and betrayal, and the loneliness at the heart of being human, Danny comes to understand that his life, and his choices, will never be simple again.
