Summary
A two-part series — The twisted story of Sergeant John Wilson: a mountie at the centre of a sordid love triangle that played out as World War I raged on.
Put together from an archive of hundreds of real love letters, forged letters and police and court memos, this gripping, action-packed miniseries offers a vivid snapshot of Canada at a pivotal moment in history.
Canadian True Crime donates monthly to help those facing injustice.
This month we have donated to Women’s Shelters Canada, an organization that supports over 600 shelters across the country for women and children fleeing violence. You can find a shelter near you by going to sheltersafe dot ca.
Look out for early, ad-free release on CTC premium feeds: available on Amazon Music (included with Prime), Apple Podcasts, Patreon and Supercast.
