In the spirit of the popular Canadian podcast Dark Poutine, host Mike Browne chronicles some of his all-time favourite stories
In Murder with a Twist, we are confronted by unusual weird motives, strange perpetrators and bizarre murder weapons. In one story, we see a man who is willing to kill to possess a human voice. In another, two women in an elder-care home play a deadly game to prove their love to each other.
Perpetual Puzzles covers six stories that remain unresolved and will leave you with more questions than answers. They include the archaeological find of the century, which turns out to be something far more sinister, as well as the discovery of a dead man on the beach with a mysterious clue in his pocket.
The Madness of Crowds reveals that murder and mayhem are sometimes a group effort. We meet two young Canadians who leave home one summer to find work and instead end up on a murder spree, and a bizarre California cult that asks its members to topple the Mormon church.
The book concludes with Notable Disasters, which describes some of the most tragic and deadly events in history, including the devastating tsunami in the Indian Ocean on December 26, 2004, as well as the disastrous Grenfell Tower fire in London in June 2017.
The book includes a foreword by Alan R. Warren, bestselling true crime author and host of the House of Mystery Radio Show.
