Book summary:

In 1941, two Prince Edward Island men were hanged for the murder of a Charlottetown shopkeeper. The two went to the gallows claiming that another man, never identified, actually committed the crime. What if there really was a mysterious third man? How did he manage to elude the law? This is the intriguing premise behind Charlottetown writer MICHAEL HENNESSEY's gripping historical novel about Prince Edward Island's most famous true-crime legend. An intimate psychological portrait of a man who literally get away with murder, "The Betrayer tells the fictional story of newspaperman Hugh Michael (Mickey) Casey. Looking back over his life with equal measures of insight and delusion, Mickey recounts his childhood in a Charlottetown orphanage, his youth on the tough streets of the city's west end, and the brutal crime that he kept secret throughout his career as a popular newspaper columnist.
