Murdoch Mysteries - Journeyman to Grief by Maureen Jennings

In 1858, a young woman on her honeymoon is abducted, taken across the border to the US and sold into slavery. Thirty-eight years later, the owner of one of Toronto's livery stables has been found dead, horsewhipped and hung from his wrists in his tack room. The investigation endangers Murdoch's own life - and reveals how harms committed in the past can erupt fatally in the present.
"Jennings's tour of fin-de-siecle Toronto.. is by turns bracing and chilling. A surprisingly tender tale of slavery, addiction, violence and revenge served ice-cold." (Kirkus Reviews)"
Maureen Jennings emigrated to Canada from the UK at the age of seventeen.
