The Boy by Betty Jane Hegerat

In Stettler in 1959, a man named Robert Raymond Cook was accused of killing his entire family. He was put on trial, found guilty and hung for the crime. Fifty-two years later, people still wonder if Robert Cook did indeed commit the crime.

Betty Jane Hegerat has written another book on the subject; this time part fiction, part non-fiction. Betty Jane will be at the Stettler Public Library on Tuesday, June 14th to share her new book, The Boy, with us. Swing by (6:00 PM) to listen to her speak and meet with her.

In the meantime, enjoy this blog entry where she talks about the book, the crime and more:
