Life on Homicide: A Police Detective's Memoir

Former Toronto police chief William McCormack knows how ugly a homicide investigation can be. In ten years as a homicide detective, he investigated more than 100 homicides and came away with stories that range from grisly and bone-chilling to downright unbelievable -- and sometimes even comical. He shares some of Toronto's most famous murder cases, including the Scarborough Golf Club Road cabby murder and the shootout involving a bad-check artist at the Royal York Hotel.
