Terribilis

Witty, handsome, and a skilled conversationalist, Alison Mornay’s ex-husband is also a biology prof at Ottawa U. His speciality is a rare breed of Colombian frog. But when a string of apparent heroin overdoses leads to the death of a very odd assortment of people – including a human resources specialist at the university, and two Byward Market prostitutes – one male, one female – Detective Constables Morrow and Crowther start looking a little more deeply into Dr. Gerry Scott’s field of study, and the biology lab.

Mystery, thriller, and medical drama, Terribilis is a journey into a 21st century heart of darkness.
