Missing from the Village: The Story of Serial Killer Bruce McArthur, the Search for Justice, and the System That Failed Toronto's Queer Community by Justin Ling
5.0
dark emotional hopeful informative reflective sad medium-paced
Ling masterfully balances giving an honest, open account of what truly happened during these gruesome events while also honoring every victim and loved one he speaks about. Ling remains empathetic and genuine throughout the entire book, which is refreshing considering today's dark fascination with true crime. He cares passionately and openly. Ling rightfully calls for us to do better in the future: to work towards a true queer community, for the reform of law enforcement and the righting of systemic wrongs, and to build a bridge between us together.
