Jeannies Demise by Ian Radforth
August 1, 1875, Toronto: The naked body of a young woman is discovered in a pine box, half-buried in a ditch along Bloor Street. So begins Jeannies Demise, a real-life Victorian melodrama that played out in the bustling streets and courtrooms of Toronto the Good, cast with all the lurid stock characters of the genre.
