Download or read book The Billionaire Murders written by Kevin Donovan and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2019-10-29 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER A top journalist crosses the yellow tape to investigate a shocking high-society crime. Billionaires, philanthropists, socialites . . . victims. Barry and Honey Sherman appeared to lead charmed lives. But the world was shocked in late 2017 when their bodies were found in a bizarre tableau in their elegant Toronto home. First described as murder-suicide — belts looped around their necks, they were found seated beside their basement swimming pool — police later ruled it a staged, targeted double murder. Nothing about the case made sense to friends of the founder of one of the world’s largest generic pharmaceutical firms and his wife, a powerhouse in Canada’s charity world. Together, their wealth has been estimated at well over $4.7 billion. There was another side to the story. A strategic genius who built a large generic drug company — Apotex Inc. — Barry Sherman was a self-described workaholic, renowned risk-taker, and disruptor during his fifty-year career. Regarded as a generous friend by many, Sherman was also feared by others. He was criticized for stifling academic freedom and using the courts to win at all costs. Upset with building issues at his mansion, he sued and recouped millions from tradespeople. At the time of his death, Sherman had just won a decades-old legal case involving four cousins who wanted 20 percent of his fortune. Toronto Star investigative journalist Kevin Donovan chronicles the unsettling story from the beginning, interviewing family members, friends, and colleagues, and sheds new light on the Shermans’ lives and the disturbing double murder. Deeply researched and authoritative, The Billionaire Murders is a compulsively readable tale of a strange and perplexing crime.

Download or read book The Captain Was a Doctor written by Jonathon Reid and published by Dundurn. This book was released on 2020-10-24 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Canadian medical officer and prisoner of war returns from the Second World War a hero — and a very different man. In August 1941, John Reid, a young Canadian doctor, volunteered to join the Royal Canadian Army Medical Corps with four friends from medical school. After five weeks of officer training in Ottawa, Reid took an optional two-week course in tropical medicine, a choice which sealed his fate. Assigned to “C” Force, the two Canadian battalions sent to reinforce “semi-tropical” Hong Kong, he was among those captured when the calamitous Battle of Hong Kong ended on Christmas Day. After a year in Hong Kong prison camps, Reid was chosen as the only officer to accompany 663 Canadian POWs sent to Japan to work as slave labourers. His efforts over the next two and a half years to lead, treat, and protect his men were heroic. He survived the war, but finding a peace of his own took ten tumultuous years, with casualties of a different sort. He would never be the same.

Download or read book Rogers v Rogers written by Alexandra Posadzki and published by McClelland & Stewart. This book was released on 2024-02-13 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A riveting, deeply reported account that takes us inside the dramatic battle for control of Canada’s largest wireless carrier, and paints a broader picture of the cutthroat telecom industry, the labyrinth of regulatory and political systems that govern it, and the high-stakes corporate games played by the Canadian establishment. Alexandra Posadzki’s ground-breaking coverage in the Globe and Mail exposed one of the most spectacular boardroom and family dramas in Canadian corporate history—one that has pitted the company’s extraordinarily powerful chairman and controlling shareholder, Edward Rogers, against not only his own management team but also the wishes of his mother and two of his sisters. Hanging in the balance is no less than the pending $20 billion acquisition of Shaw Communications, a historic deal that promises to transform Rogers into the truly national telecom empire that its late founder, Ted Rogers, always envisioned. Based on deeply sourced, investigative reporting of the iconic $30 billion publicly traded telecom and media giant, Posadzki takes us inside a company that touches the lives of millions of Canadians, challenging what we thought we knew about corporate governance and who really holds the power. Rogers v. Rogers is also a story of family legacy and succession, of an old guard pushing back at the new guard, and of a company struggling to find its footing in the wake of its legendary founder’s death. At the heart of it all is a dispute between warring factions of the family over how they each interpret the desires of the late patriarch and the very identity of the company that bears their name.

But when the sins of the summer catch up with Caroline "Caro" Linton, she's shocked to find her partner in crime, Toronto Tycoon, Peregrine "Perry" Prichard Lawrence III toting a baby he's convinced is theirs. How could she have given their child away? And how could Caro be so blind to a kindred spirit who, like her, is determined to do the right thing? But the right thing means finding the baby's true mother, something Caro must convince Perry to do, even if it breaks his heart... and hers. Her Toronto Tycoon is a cinnamon roll romance, complete with homemade icing for those who prefer their heroes too good to resist. Written from a Christian worldview, this clean and wholesome billionaire romance takes readers from sultry summer to snowy Christmas. And canvases the reality of mistakes, forgiveness, judgement, and what it truly means to be a Christian. Family is often what you make it and perspective is everything. From a glittering Port Hercule in Monte-Carlo, to the Toronto, Ontario financial district, a wooded Haliburton hideaway, to the high-climes of the Swiss Alps where winter fun happens 360 days a year, Her Toronto Tycoon challenges readers to think before judging. And even then to be more forgiving than human nature will often allow. We all make mistakes! If you're a fan of "clean and swoony" Ellie Hall, the creative flare of Lorana Hoopes, or the tender touch of Liz Isaacson, you'll want a taste of Her Toronto Tycoon.
