"Anita Arvast, through her research, attendance at the trials, and jailhouse interviews with one of the convicted, details a fascinating case of justice gone awry: at least one man who appears to have been wrongfully convicted, a case by the Crown built around an unreliable witness, and the unsettling revelation that a likely killer has walked free - and been paid for his assistance. Bloody Justice is a remarkable examination of a shocking crime, and challenges our notions of justice, retribution, and fairness - both in the legal system and the criminal underworld - and shows us that the truth behind these crimes is nothing less than tragedy." -- Page 4 of cover.
