And it wasn't the first time the "City of Champions" snagged the title nobody wants to claim. It earned the distinction in 2005. Even in 1938, the city had a higher per capita murder rate than Chicago. In Deadmonton, former Sun reporter Pamela Roth takes a look at some of the city's most notorious murders, both solved and unsolved. With testimony from victims' relatives, these stories serve as a reminder of the horror that humans are capable of inflicting upon one another, and highlight the pain left in the wake of such crimes. Deadmonton also offers a glimpse into the lives of detectives working to bring closure to families and justice to victims."--  |c Provided by publisher
