A woman accused of killing her young daughter on a rural Alberta road one year ago will stand trial on the charges.

The preliminary hearing wrapped up Thursday for Laura Coward.

Coward, who is 48, is charged with first-degree murder in the death of nine-year-old Amber Lucius.

Her body was found in a car near Sundre in September 2014.

Coward was originally charged with abduction against a court order and break and enter.
