Dundurn Group Unsolved: True Canadian Cold Cases

Not a bad effort
This book was decent. There seemed to be too much emphasis on killings in Ontario (with the exception of the Trail of Tears killings and a few exceptions). However, the case descriptions are thorough, honest and tend to veer away from anything overly sensational.The cases are haunting. Even after all these years they continue to fascinate people. I would have appreciated more content from the pre-90's/2000's

A thought-provoking and important work
Well researched and written with great consideration not only toward the victims of the horrible crimes explored in the book, but also toward the complexity of evidence gathering and the dedication of law enforcement. Details in the book are laid out with sober sensitivity - only enough to distill a sense of dread and sorrow we should feel for these victims. Most of us go through our daily lives without thinking about such horrors, but Hoshowsky doesn't look away and doesn't flinch. He reminds us that the murder victims deserve justice and dignity: they deserve our attention.

Paperback.
A great read, didn't want to put it down-Mostly about Ontario not much on the rest of Canada. I live in Ontario and never heard of a lot of these cold cases.

I wish this book could be reissued; apparently only available on-line
Excellent read! Some of these cases will make great projects for my criminology students!

A Real Spellbinder
I found this book to be very interesting as I remember some of the cases discussed. You get a real understanding of how, even with great police work, some crimes don't get solved. It was hard to put down.
