Featured Books
Beneath the peaceful beauty of the Ottawa Valley lies a forgotten history of violence, betrayal, and murder.
In Dark Deeds in the Ottawa Valley, award-winning Canadian author Keith Landry brings three of the region’s most shocking true crimes back to life.
Discover the 1868 assassination of Thomas D’Arcy McGee, one of Canada’s Fathers of Confederation; the heartbreaking Cumberland Child Murders of 1890; and the chilling Clarence Creek Murder of 1894.
Drawing on meticulous historical research, newspaper accounts, and court records, Landry transforms these real cases into gripping narratives that read like thrillers while remaining faithful to documented history.
These are not legends.
They happened.
And once you uncover the Ottawa Valley’s darkest secrets, you’ll never see its quiet towns and country roads the same way again.
