<p><em>The Seventh Shot</em> is a recounting of two grisly Ontario murders some thirty years on, and the remarkable efforts of police detectives to unravel the senseless brutality of these crimes. The author, and one-time classmate of the killer, haunted by the crimes and some demons of her own, sets about shedding light on the dogged determination of Ontario Police Detectives to bring a killer cop to justice, involving a little luck, and a whole lot of talent.<br>Drawing on faded archival copies, hours of interviews and first hand accounts, This one time journalist follows the life of Ronald Glen West, once referred to as’ The .22-Calibre Killer’, from birth to time spent on the range with the likes of Bernardo and Williams, with whom, among many other coincidences, he has more than crimes in common.<br>Besides the 1970 murders of two young mothers in the Oak Ridges Moraine, Burke addresses the yet unsolved Blind River killings at a roadside rest stop in 1991 for which West has long been suspected.<br>One cannot read<em> The Seventh Shot</em> without comparing the parallels of the Golden State Killer: both cops, long undetected and ultimately charged through the science of DNA.<br></p>
