Ghosts of Woodwards is inspired by a true historical event in Vancouver Canada in 2002; Woodsquat: Tent-City. At this time over 300 homeless persons and political activists illegally occupied three city blocks of downtown Vancouver for 92 days. This was the longest camp protest ever recorded in North America.
This suspense/drama begins at the Woodwards Tent-City occupation and follows Woodsquat, its aftermath and the lives of two fictitious characters: Destiny Calling and Rattlesnake Chief Feather.
Destiny is a humanitarian interested in helping people get off the streets. She is taken for millions leaving her virtually penniless and needing to piece together her own life. more
Rattlesnake is an indigenous man, homeless by choice - for the sake of the cause, who drifts in character from a man seeking emancipation for his people to a drug & lust-driven extortionist. more

Maurice is a friend of Rattlesnake Chief Feather. He is an eccentric wheelchair-bound amputee with unusual, but interesting life experiences to speak of and absurd lies as well.
He lives at Woodsquat, but remains fully interactive with Rattlesnake and Destiny during the duration of the story following the protest. Maurice has has a creepy side and although seemingly trustworthy at first, Maurice becomes one of the most likely persons to be involved in the extortion of funds from Destiny's charitable funds.
