Murder in the Mummy’s Shadow

Murder in the Mummy’s Shadow
A Mick & Mack Mystery
Toronto, October 1950. Fog coils around the towers of University College, and whispers of cults and curses haunt the lecture halls.
When a graduate student is found dead in a circle of chalk symbols, Detectives Mick McCathie and Mack MacNeely are drawn into a world of midnight gatherings, cryptic inscriptions, and an Egyptian sarcophagus said to conceal a terrible secret.
At the center of it all stands Professor Elias Vane — eloquent, enigmatic, and unsettlingly calm. Is he a scholar of ancient mysteries… or the architect of something far darker?
As bodies fall and the rituals grow bolder, Mick and Mack must navigate a maze of frightened students, rival academics, and symbols that may be more than superstition. The trail leads beneath University College itself, into a crypt where the past refuses to sleep — and where the line between reason and madness blurs in candlelight.
In a city of fog and fear, the detectives face a final question: have they stopped a killer, or merely delayed an awakening?Murder in the Mummy’s Shadow — a Mick & Mack Halloween Mystery.

Power, Secrecy, and Scandal: The Redpath Mystery

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.

Murder in the Mummy’s Shadow (Trailer)
Fog coils around University College as a grad student turns up dead inside a circle of chalk—a jagged compass pointing straight at something older than the city. Mick McCathie and Mack MacNeely follow whispers of midnight chants, a newly arrived sarcophagus at the ROM, and a professor with a velvet jacket and an unsettling smile. Is Elias Vane a scholar… or the architect of an awakening? When the ritual descends into a hidden crypt, the detectives must decide whether they’ve stopped a killer—or only delayed what the inscription promised: The Sleeper Awaits.

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

Power, Secrecy, and Scandal: The Redpath Mystery in Gilded Age Montreal
A FORTUNE BOUGHT SILENCE. A MURDER DEMANDED IT.
In 1901 Montreal, the Redpaths commanded one of Canada’s greatest fortunes—a legacy built on sugar, prestige, and the absolute control of their private world. But that world shattered on the evening of June 13th, when matriarch Ada and her son, Jocelyn Clifford, were found dead from gunshots inside their opulent Golden Square Mile mansion .
The official verdict, rendered swiftly by a private inquest convened inside the family home, blamed a fit of "temporary insanity" and closed the case as a murder-suicide. No police were called. Within 48 hours, the bodies were buried, sealing the horror deep beneath the family’s wealth .
But the story they fabricated is riddled with fatal flaws:
* Why did two witnesses testify to seeing two revolvers at the scene, not the single gun Peter Redpath claimed ?* Why did the family physician, Dr. Thomas Roddick, provide the crucial verdict of insanity—despite evidence suggesting he was not in Montreal to examine the bodies that night?* And why, five years later, did Dr. Roddick marry Amy Redpath, the daughter whose diary confessed that her mother’s illness had become an unbearable "burden"?
The evidence suggests not a suicide, but a calculated, clinical act of self-preservation carried out by an insider. Discover the true story of how Montreal’s elite weaponized their privilege, sacrificing justice to bury a brutal family secret for a century.
The question is no longer what happened, but who got away with it.
Because every case deserves answers—and every victim deserves justice.

TWENTY YEARS ON: A BARRIE TRAGEDY April Dobson’s Unsolved Murder

TWENTY YEARS ON: A BARRIE TRAGEDYApril Dobson’s Unsolved Murder
A quiet night helping a friend turned deadly just after midnight on October 14, 2005. Forty-year-old mother, April Dobson, was relaxing on a friend's porch at 300 Browning Trail when a single, fatal gunshot rang out. The shooter vanished, leaving behind a murder that has haunted Barrie, Ontario, for two decades.
In this deep dive, host Jay Nicoll of Nicoll Investigations explores the chilling evidence: a mysterious young male on a mountain bike, the frantic, sudden move of the house's tenants, and four disturbing scenarios involving drug rumors, biker ties, and men who were police persons of interest. Two of those individuals have since died—one of an overdose.
Driven by the heartbreak of April's son, who has fought relentlessly for justice, this episode exposes the complexity of a case the police still believe can be solved. Someone knows the truth.

The Unsolved Murders of Lori Pinkus and Toronto’s Sex Trade Workers

The Unsolved Murders of Lori Pinkus and Toronto’s Sex Trade Workers
Unraveled Secrets in the Shadows of Toronto
In the dark streets of Toronto, a sinister pattern emerged from the mid-1980s to the late 1990s: five sex trade workers, including Lori Pinkus, brutally strangled and left in chilling scenes far from where they were last seen. Were these murders the work of a single predator stalking the city’s most vulnerable? Ontario Cold Cases - Canada’s True Crime Podcast dives deep into these haunting mysteries, unearthing clues that could finally crack these decades-old cases.
Lori Pinkus, a young woman fleeing a troubled past, met a tragic end behind Brockton High School in 1991. Her final words to her mother—“If I die, will you bury me?”—echo as a heartbreaking plea. Now, a breakthrough male DNA profile offers hope for justice, but the killer’s identity remains elusive. Could it be Gregory George Ashford, a convicted murderer whose chilling diary confessed an urge to kill again? Or Daniel Harvey Atkinson, a predator linked to violent assaults on sex workers? As FBI expert John Douglas reveals, the weekend timing of these crimes points to a serial killer lurking in Toronto’s shadows.
Gripping, suspenseful, and packed with investigative twists, this episode of Ontario Cold Cases will leave you questioning: Is the truth finally within reach?

THE GIRL IN THE BOILER ROOM: Andrea Atkinson and a Toronto Nightmare

THE GIRL IN THE BOILER ROOM: Andrea Atkinson and a Toronto Nightmare
Toronto, October 1990. Six-year-old Andrea Atkinson vanished from the high-rise she called home. The sudden disappearance of an innocent child launched a frantic, city-wide search that consumed a community and broke a family.
Ten agonizing days later, the worst was confirmed. Andrea’s tiny body was found hidden in the boiler room—a maintenance space in the very apartment building where she should have been safe. She had been brutally sexually assaulted and murdered.
The killer was the person no one suspected: John Carlos Terceira, the building’s 18-year-old caretaker—a familiar face, a trusted fixture, and ultimately, a devastating betrayer. Convicted of first-degree murder, Terceira was sentenced to life.
For over three decades, the Atkinson family has fought to keep the only thing left of their peace: their daughter’s killer behind bars.
Now, the fight continues.
In this special short edition, we explore the horrific crime that shattered Toronto's sense of security and bring you the latest development: Terceira’s attempt at freedom, and the Parole Board’s necessary decision to deny his release.
This is a story of stolen innocence, a betrayal of trust, and the decades-long pursuit of justice.
COMING SOON: Don't miss our full-length, in-depth feature on the entire tragic story in an upcoming episode: The Murder of Andrea Atkinson.
