Mississauga Confidential

FROM THE CASE FILES OF HERITAGE MISSISSAUGA…

A murder in a lonely farmhouse with the farmer’s own axe! Two sweethearts pull a bank heist on their wedding day! A young couple offers a midnight ride to a killer! A husband and wife take out hits on each other! Pulp fiction? Think again! These are true tales of crime from Mississauga’s darker side. We’ll tell the facts, name the names and spill the secrets on the dark tales that only get whispered. Meet the gun-toting gangsters, the sicko serial killers, the hitmen and the heisters who inhabited this city. We’ll pull them out of the shadows and detail their dirty deeds. This is Mississauga Confidential. Uncensored and off the record!

Authors Bryan Ho and Nicole Mair have compiled 24 stories of true crime from historic Mississauga for a meticulously researched anthology penned in the hardboiled style of pulp fiction. Dive into Mississauga Confidential as they detail these stranger-than-fiction tales and larger-than-life criminal figures, and explore the growth of a city through the forgotten stories of its dark, criminal past.
