One hundred years after the fascinating events that shook Canada’s western most province took place, the real story can finally be told. Peter Grauer has taken a snapshot in time, rich in detail and largely based on restricted and private sources never before seen or published - just four years in the first decade of the twentieth century. The tragic facts of the guilt and innocence of two men, one a tubercular Canadian school teacher and the other a reclusive American on the run from unknown events across the border, are revealed in this book. The wealth of detail presented by the author will enable the reader to render judgment on whether that Kamloops jury and the manipulated public opinion of 100 years ago were right or wrong. After years of painstaking research, the story of how the mysterious Third Man was identified and how retribution finally caught up to him is told in stark detail.
