J. B. MacKinnon Dead Man in Paradise
Douglas & McIntyre 2005-09 1553651383 / 9781553651383 Paperback Used: Like New Paperback
New unread book. Has dust and scratches on cover and shelf wear on corner and edges.Book DescriptionPublication Date: September 2005At nightfall on June 22, 1965, a soldier walked in from the outskirts of a small town in the Dominican Republic and reported that he had just shot and killed two policemen and an outspoken Canadian Catholic priest. It was the opening scene in a mystery that, forty years later, compels J. B. MacKinnon, a nephew of the murdered missionary, to investigate what many believe was a carefully plotted assassination. "Dead Man in Paradise" is a true story with the suspense of a classic mystery novel, the immediacy of reportage and the insight of a travelogue. More than any of these, it is a personal examination of one of the gravest challenges of our times: finding a balance between our longing to hold the guilty to account for their crimes and the deep human need to forgive.
