Tough on Crime
The Novel
by
David Holdsworth
A prison in Gatineau Park? Tougher sentencing laws to fill it up? Something about this plan smells. After losing seats in the election, a (less than) honourable Prime Minister decides to do things his way with a massive new tough-on-crime bill. Finally, he’ll have the power to silence his critics once and for all. It was all going according to plan until word gets out to the feisty mayor of Riverdale, Quebec, who decides to fight back. Rallying behind their mascot, Arthur the skunk, she and the town pull out all the stops to end the Government’s charade. Then it’s the Prime Minister’s turn to face the music.
Author of The Ambassador's Camel
David Holdsworth enjoyed a long career as a senior civil servant with a ringside seat to the workings of government. These days he looks in from the outside, occasionally poking a stick at the hornet’s nest of Canadian politics. He lives with his wife in Ottawa.
