Travel Guide

Travel BookTrail style to Toronto

There’s a nice Toronto feel in this book with a character having lived here and having many links to the story too. Mentions here are vague but the feel of the big city, the huge metropolis are what helps drive the story along. They show the contrast between city and smaller town such as Kingston.

Then head up to  Kingston….

Most of the novel takes place here. The police have quite the case on their hands. In a bleak apartment block someone has been found murdered who hadn’t lived there long.  The city is small and was the promise of a new start in life for her. Sadly, despite the move away from the big city, danger has followed her to the countryside.

Kingston sits on Lake Ontario and is known as the “Limestone City” for its impressive City Hall and other grand buildings like it.  Canada’s first prime minister, Sir John A. Macdonald is commemorated at the Bellevue House National Historic Site.
