Reviews
"""I really liked this novel. The setting - Toronto Island - was as important as any characters in the story. The characters are all people I want to know more about...I want to take a trip to Toronto Island after reading this book. I was impressed with the research by the author about the history of the island. Fascinating!"" -Heidi L. Langan ""I love PW Christine Lane. She is intelligent, compassionate and resourceful and has to struggle alongside her female colleagues in a 'Man's' world. It is an eye opener to see exactly what women police officers had to contend with in 1969. This story was made even interesting by the fact that there are numerous mysterious threads in this beautifully written and at times poignant story. The institutional racism was shocking. I was completely hooked from Page 1."" -Geraldine Lopez."
