22 murders : investigating the massacres, cover-up and obstacles to justice in Nova Scotia

Palango, Paul 1950- (author.).

Summary: As news broke of a killer rampaging across the tiny community of Portapique, Nova Scotia, late on April 18, 2020, details were oddly hard to come by. The RCMP was largely silent then, and continued to obscure the actions of denturist Gabriel Wortman. Watching the RCMP stumble through the Portapique massacre, Palango knew the story behind the headlines was more complicated and damning than anyone was willing to admit. Palango peels away the layers of this murderous episode, and unearthing the collision of failure and malfeasance that cost a quiet community 22 innocent lives.
