Description
A hard-working real estate agent goes out to show a piece of property to her client--and never returns.
This short ebook is an excerpt from a book by journalist Pamela Roth: Deadmonton: Crime Stories from Canada's Murder City. In Deadmonton, Roth takes a look at some of the city's most notorious murders. With testimony from victims' relatives, these stories serve as a reminder of the pain and horror that humans are capable of inflicting upon one another. But Deadmonton also offers a glimpse into the lives of detectives working to bring closure to families and justice to victims.
