​
In this story, I have tried to illustrate the dedication, determination and tenacity of law enforcement forces in all parts of our country, the men and women who daily work to protect each one of us and to solve and prosecute crimes that happen in our communities.
Even though this story found its inspiration from an actual case, it is only a novel created to reflect the imagination of the author.
All names, characters, places and incidents in this novel are products of my imagination and are not meant to represent any actual person living or dead or any real locations or occurrences.
This murder could have taken place in any part of Canada.

Bob McCarthy has done it again - creating skillfully crafted stories based on historical fact in his own unique brand of historical fiction.
By using real historical personalities, and creating fictional accounts of their lives, McCarthy blends Sarnia's historical past with images of what may have taken place.

Learning about the heritage of Lambton County is like having a dialogue with the past.
What might you discover if you had a chance to listen to voices of our past and you were able to better picture what actually happened, what it may really have been like?
I have always believed that history is best told when it is presented as a series of stories. But where do all of the stories come from in the first place?
In Voices of Lambton, I have taken information I have gathered about Lambton County’s heritage and presented it as stories told by the people who lived in our past.
I hope that these verbal images presented as Voices of Lambton will help to illustrate our history as it might have been experienced by the people of Lambton’s past.
These dialogues allow me a way to present glimpses of our culture and the hearing of these stories hopefully will allow you to create a picture in your mind of what it might have been like to have lived in another time.
