The Ghosts That Haunt Me

Memories of a Homicide Detective

I am reviewing a copy of The Ghosts That Haunt Me through Dundurn Press and Netgalley:




Steve Ryan is a retired homicide detective who worked in Toronto’s homicide squad for over a decade. For him, the stories of Toronto’s most infamous crimes were more than just a headline read over morning coffee  they were his everyday life.




Steve investigating over one hundred homicides, and the tragedies he saw will never leave him, and he’ll never forget the victims whose deaths he investigated. Some things were so terrible they are impossible to forget, even after his retirement from the police force.




The Ghosts That Haunt Me, reflect on just a few of the many cases that have greatly impacted him. In these pages, he remembers six cases  seven people whose lives were senselessly taken  that he still thinks about nearly every day. While these stories are hard to tell, they were harder to live through. But somewhere in between the crime and the heartache there is a glimmer of hope that good eventually does prevail and that healing can come after grief.





I give The Ghosts that Haunt Me, five out of five stars!




Happy Reading!
