12-year-old Lynne Harper came from a Canadian Air Force family and was used to frequently relocating all across the map in Canada. In the summer of 1957, the family settled into the Permanent Married Quarters--the PMQ, as many called them--in RCAF Station Clinton, which was once an air force base south of Clinton, Ontario, roughly 20 kilometres away from Lake Huron. All of the kids living on base attended the same school, swam in the same RCAF pool, and frolicked at the same playground. 
On June 9th, 1957, Lynne came home for dinner and asked her parents if either one of them could take her to the local RCAF pool. All children were required to be accompanied by an adult when attending the pool for a swim. However, both of them objected, causing much of a fuss on Lynne’s end. Lynne left to go to the pool by herself, but was turned away by the pool’s supervisor. She then returned home and begrudgingly helped with some chores before leaving  the house again without telling anyone where she was going. 
Lynne found herself at the local playground, where she approached 14-year-old Steven Truscott. The two were classmates but never really interacted. Steven was your average 8th grader who was physically active and never got himself into trouble. Lynne asked if he could give her a lift on his bike to Highway 8, and he agreed to do so. On the way there, Lynne mentioned her intention to visit Mr. Lawson’s barn on Highway 8 to see the ponies. 
As per her request, he dropped Lynne off at the intersection of a country road and Highway 8. On the way back to Clinton, Steven would later claim he looked over his shoulder to see Lynne getting into a mysterious vehicle. 
Lynne never came home that night. The next morning, she was still missing. Lynne’s parents notified police and an investigation ensued. On June 11, two days after Lynne’s disappearance, her body was found close to a bush on Lawson’s property. She had been sexually assaulted and strangled with her own blouse. 
The following day, Steven was arrested for her murder, as he was the last person to be seen with her. During the trial, the defense and Crown brought on many witnesses, plenty of which were children. One female classmate claimed that Steven had repeatedly invited her to meet him at Lawson’s barn. When she finally went there, he never showed up. The following day at school, she confronted him about it, and he responded by shrugging his shoulders. 
The defense and Crown argued endlessly about the timeline of the murder. But ultimately, Steven was found guilty and sentenced to death by hanging, making him the youngest person in Canada to face execution. 
Steven has maintained his innocence for years and believed he was given an unfair trial. Many people advocated on his behalf and fought for his conviction to be overturned. In 1960, Steven’s death sentence was commuted to a life sentence. In 2007, his conviction was overturned and he was exonerated as it was argued that the forensic evidence presented at his trial was weak and circumstantial. 
To this day, Lynne Harper’s death remains unsolved, with Canadians divided on their beliefs about whether Steven was truly the culprit.

January Book Reviews: The Bone Doll's Twin by Lynn Flewelling
Tumblr media
This book has been on my radar ever since it was recommended in a tordotcom post. Also, I liked Flewelling's other books. Prophecy states that Skala will only prosper when ruled by a queen of the ancient line. But Erius seizes the throne from his sickly sister-- and begins to eliminate his female relatives as potential rivals. When a new heir is born, two wizards disguise her as a boy using dark magic in hopes she can come of age and challenge Erius.
Everyone knows that girl-disguised-as-boy is a very gender trope. But here, Flewelling exceeds herself to add even more gender per gender. Tobin has the body of a boy, is raised as a boy, and no one tells him about his origin story or that he has to be a girl one day in order to retake the throne. Which is understandable, since he's under twelve for most of the book, but it still makes for a very transgender narrative.
ALSO this is a very good fantasy book in its own right. It's much more tightly plotted and sleek than Flewelling's other series. I also like how the book plays with genre a little-- it's half high fantasy and half gothic horror, which is a fascinating combination. Tobin's trapped in a crumbling castle, haunted by his mother, his dead twin brother, and by the sins of the past. There are GHOSTS and also CURSES. And blood magic and a little bit of necromancy.
Very fun. Highly recommended if you like epic fantasy.
