Searching for Savanna details the story of Savanna LaFontaine-Greywind, a Native American woman who was 22 years old and eight months pregnant when she went missing in 2017. A week after she went missing, her upstairs neighbors were arrested - they had possession of Savanna’s baby girl, although Savanna’s body was nowhere to be found.
I picked up this book because there is an epidemic of missing and murdered Native American women in our country. While this book talks about that epidemic in general, it’s only for a small portion of the book, and the focus remains on Savanna for most of the pages. Her story is absolutely horrifying, but if you’re a fan of true crime or want to learn more about this epidemic and how missing Native women cases are really handled, this is a great book to pick up.
