Loss of faith : how the Air-India bombers got away with murder

Bolan, Kim 1959- (Author).

Summary: "When the two men charged with planning and executing the 1985 Air-India bombings were acquitted on all charges in March 2005, Canadians across the country were shocked. What had looked like an open-and-shut case had fallen apart in the courtroom, and our sense of justice was deeply offended. Clearly, we hadn't heard the full story, nor had the judge. So what really did happen and how did the most expensive investigation and trial in Canadian history end without a conviction?" "One of the few who knows the whole story is reporter Kim Bolan, who has stubbornly pursued the facts of what remains Canada's first and worst terrorist act for twenty years, placing her own life in danger while uncovering the details of the plot and the actions of the conspirators. She probably should have been a witness at the trial, but decided she would rather report on the proceedings. But she tells us now in Loss of Faith just what she knows. It is an outstanding and hair-raising account of mass murder and deception that pieces together the cowardly plot and the conspirators' successful twenty-year evasion of justice. Book jacket."--BOOK JACKET
