In 2008, Danny Wolfe, a Winnipeg Aboriginal man, was 31-years-old and awaiting trial on two counts of first-degree murder in…
at the Regina Correctional Centre. In spite of his young age, Danny had found himself in and out of correctional facilities since his teenage years, sometimes even finding his own way out. Now, fifteen years after his last break out of prison, Danny was orchestrating a bigger escape from a jail where the notion was inconceivable. This biography traces the early years of Daniel Wolfe's life, from his birth in Regina to his mother Susan Creeley, a First Nations woman; to his first brush with the law at the age of four and then his subsequent arrests; to the birth of the Indian Posse--the Aboriginal street gang in Canada that would eventually claim the title of the largest street gang in North America with over 12,000 members (from BC to Ontario, and even Texas, Oklahoma, and Arizona) and Danny at the helm; to Danny's death in 2010. Bestseller. 2016.

The author presents a look into the different stages of bin Laden's life, and how each battle hardened his resolve,…
deepened his sense of struggle, and intensified his anger. Randal also outlines the failures and miscalculations of the U.S. in its attempts to contain and thwart the elusive bin Laden - most notably, Clinton's series of bombings in Afghanistan and Sudan, which, in failing to kill bin Laden, led many Muslims to believe that Allah had saved him and boosted his reputation. 2004.

Philosopher Karyn L. Freedman travels back to a Paris night in 1990 when she was twenty-two and, in one violent…
hour, her life was changed forever by a brutal rape. We follow Freedman from an apartment in Paris to a French courtroom, from a trauma centre in Toronto to a rape clinic in Africa. At a time when as many as one in three women in the world have been victims of sexual assault and when many women are still ashamed to come forward, Freedman's book is a moving and essential look at how survivors cope and persevere. Winner of the 2015 British Columbia National Award for Canadian Non-Fiction. 2014.

Soraya was just fifteen, a schoolgirl in the coastal town of Sirte, when she was given the honour of presenting…
a bouquet of flowers to Colonel Gaddafi on a visit he was making to her school. This one meeting changed Soraya's life forever.

Until Vito Rizzuto went to prison in 2006 for his role in a decades-old Brooklyn triple murder, he ruled the…
Port of Montreal, the northern gateway to the major American drug markets. A master diplomat, he won the respect of rival mafia clans, bikers and street gangs, and criminal business thrived on his turf. His family prospered and his empire grew--until one of North America's true Teflon dons finally lost his veneer. As he watched helplessly from his Colorado prison, the murders of his son and father made international headlines; the killings of his lieutenants and friends filled the pages of Canadian news; and the influence of the 'Ndrangheta, the Calabrian Mafia, spread across Montreal faster than the blood of Rizzuto's crime family. In 2012, Vito Rizzuto emerged from prison, a 66-year-old man who could carefully rebuild his criminal empire or seek bloody revenge and damn the consequences. Bestseller. 2015.

An attack in London left Ann Walmsley unable to walk alone down the street, and shook her belief in the…
fundamental goodness of people. A few years later, when a friend asked her to participate in a bold new venture in a men's medium security prison, Ann had to weigh her curiosity and desire to be of service against her anxiety and fear. But she signed on, and for eighteen months went to a remote building at Collins Bay, meeting a group of heavily tattooed book club members without the presence of guards or security cameras. There was no wine and cheese, no plush furnishings. But a book club on the inside of a prison proved to be a place to share ideas and regain a sense of humanity. 2015.

"Dans la soirée du samedi 10 avril 1734, Montréal brûle. L'esclave Marie-Joseph-Angélique est traduite devant la justice et accusée d'avoir…
mis le feu. Soumise à la question extraordinaire, forme de torture atroce pendant laquelle on brise les os des jambes, elle craque et avoue avoir commis cet incendie criminel. Puis, elle est pendue. Angélique entre dans l'histoire canadienne en tant que criminelle. Cependant, son procès nous offre une occasion unique de raconter sa vie d'esclave, une vie dont on n'aurait pas entendu parler autrement. Afua Cooper fait revivre brillamment un chapitre méconnu de l'histoire du Canada, celui d'une Noire rebelle d'origine portugaise qui a cherché à briser ses chaînes. En nous présentant le vécu de cette jeune femme, elle met en lumière ce qui l'a sans doute poussée à commettre pareil crime. Par le fait même, elle détruit le mythe d'un Canada considéré comme un paradis pour les Noirs ayant échappé à l'esclavagisme des États-Unis. L'histoire d'Angélique est le plus ancien récit à propos de l'esclavage dans le Nouveau Monde. [...]" -- 4e de couv . Titre uniforme: The hanging of Angelique.
