Power, Secrecy, and Scandal: The Redpath Mystery in Gilded Age Montreal
Available Now!

In 1901 Montreal, the Redpath sugar fortune bought more than mansions—it bought secrecy.


When matriarch Ada and her son Clifford were found shot, the family didn't call the police. They called a coroner and convened a private inquest in their parlor.


The verdict: Murder-suicide by an epileptic son. The evidence was destroyed. The bodies were buried in haste.


But the truth lay buried under layer after layer of elite privilege.


Contradictory witnesses saw two guns at the scene. The official doctor lied about his presence. And the surviving daughter was finally free from the "burden" of endless caregiving.


Because every case deserves answers—and every victim deserves justice.
