Thank you to the author and publisher for an e-ARC copy of the book in exchange for my honest opinion. Well first off you would never think this is the author's first book. Well written, paced and packed with great information not only about this case but other famous serial killers. The author does a great job analyzing the changes in society and history to attempt to understand how we evolved, for lack of a better word, state. He does this without the reading being dry. Much enjoyed. ( ) nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
The unbelievable true story of Canada's first known spree killer, told by a veteran of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. In June 1966, Matthew Charles Lamb took his uncle's shotgun and wandered down Ford Blvd in Windsor, Ontario. At the end of the bloody night, two teenagers lay dead, with multiple others injured after an unprovoked shooting spree. In his investigation into Lamb's story, Will Toffan pieces together the troubled childhood and history of violence that culminated in the young man's dubious distinction as Canada's first known spree killer--at which point the story becomes, the author writes "too strange for fiction." Travelling from the border city streets, to the courtroom, to the Oak Ridge rehabilitation centre, and finally Rhodesia, Watching the Devil Dance is both a thrilling narrative about a shocking true crime and its bizarre aftermath and an insightful analysis of the 1960s criminal justice system.
