This book brings to life 14 Canadian women, victims of the gallows. They have the unique chance to proclaim their innocence beyond the tombstone, after centuries of silence. Some of them are entitled to convince us that they were victims of judicial errors. Their lives were unduly confiscated for the simple satisfaction of a vain Prosecutor who wished to build a prestigious career without the slightest failure. Others owe their execution to the carelessness of an inexperienced or inept lawyer. Bringing all these women out of oblivion was the best tribute the author could offer them, for all of them have suffered, and as such deserve our benevolent indulgence.
