About the Author

Robert Sanderson is the author of the novel Money Boss – that a Kirkus reviewer termed “A bleak and damming story of government neglect of indigenous communities – and co-author of When Freedom is Lost: The Dark Side of the Relationship Between Government and the Fort Hope Band.

​

Robert was inspired to write Destroying Max by his own experiences growing up in Montreal and specifically the time his father spent as a patient in the Allan Memorial Institute. Through his books, he hopes to inspire conversations around the importance of keeping those in authority accountable to those they are obligated to serve.
