You can't catch me / by McKenzie, Catherine,author.;
"Assumed identities. A con game. Unwitting victims. Recently fired from her investigative journalism job for plagiarism, Jessica Williams is looking for a break from the constant press coverage-and potential new coverage of her past as a noted cult survivor. She decides to escape for a week to a resort in Mexico boasting no connections to the outside world. While waiting at the airport for her flight, she encounters a woman with the same name, who she dubs Jessica Two. Drawn together by the coincidence, they play a game of twenty questions to see what other similarities they share, and exchange contact information. A week later, Jessica returns home and is bombarded with alerts that there have been large cash withdrawals from her bank account. Security footage from the bank confirms her suspicions-Jessica Two has stolen her money. She goes to the police, but soon realizes that the crime is a low priority to them. Frustrated, shemeets up with her old friend, Liam, an investigator who helped her escape the cult. When Liam and Jessica Google "Jessica Williams," they get thousands of hits-Jessica was the most popular girl's name in 1985 and the name Williams is almost as ubiquitous as Smith. But Jessica is determined to catch the imposter, and writes a Facebook post hoping to chase down more people with the same name. When she gets a number of responses, she sets in motion a plan to catch the thief. But then Jessica begins to receive threatening messages. Filled with incredible twists and turns, You Can't Catch Me is a tantalizing, character-driven exploration of how far people will go to get revenge."--

Murder on the inside : the true story of the deadly riot at Kingston Penitentiary / by Fogarty, Catherine,author.;
Includes bibliographical references."On April 14, 1971, a handful of prisoners attacked the guards at Kingston Penitentiary and seized control. The inmates held the guards hostage for four intense days, making headlines around the world and drawing international attention to the dehumanizing realities of incarceration when several inmates appeared on camera and described the overcrowding, inadequate rehabilitation programs, harsh punishment, and extreme isolation they endured. As negotiations between the leaders of the inmates and a citizens' committee of journalists and lawyers entered the a third day, tensions inside the prison erupted when gangs of angry, disenfranchised convicts turned their rage towards the weakest prisoners. As heavily armed soldiers prepared to regain control of the prison through a full military assault, the inmates finally gave up the fight. Murder on the Inside tells the story of a prison in crisis set against the backdrop of a pivotal time in history when the disenfranchised began rebelling against institutional discrimination. Like the uprising at the Attica Correctional Facility in upstate New York that occurred later the same year, leaving twenty-nine inmates and ten guards dead and marking a watershed moment for civil rights in America, the Kingston rebellion was a pivotal moment in Canadian thinking about human rights. Until now, few have known the story--yet the tense prison drama chronicled in this book is more relevant today than ever, as Canada's correctional system remains mired in crisis almost fifty years later."--

Behind You A Novel [electronic resource] : by Hernandez, Catherine.aut; Hernandez, Catherine.nrt; cloudLibrary;
As terror grips a city, a young girl faces danger closer to home and chilling memories that last a lifetime. Catherine Hernandez's most gripping and affecting novel yet, Behind You is inspired by a horrifying chapter in Canadian history and follows fictional characters terrorized by a fictional perpetrator. Alma is a Filipina woman who works as a film editor for a cheesy True Crime series featuring the most notorious killers of the 20th century called Infamous. On the surface she seems to live a good life with her wife Nira and teenage son, Mateo. But there is so much left unsaid. It's not until Infamous' last episode features the Scarborough Stalker that she remembers coming of age while the serial rapist and killer was attacking women and girls in Scarborough in the late 80s and early 90s. What unfolds are two storylines: In the past, young Alma watches an entire city become consumed with a manhunt for an elusive, terrifying suspect, while she herself is in jeopardy from closer corners. In the present, adult Alma must come to terms with her own ideas of consent to stop her son's dangerous behaviour towards his girlfriend. Weaving back and forth in time, Behind You, is a moving story of one girl’s resilience into adulthood and a chilling portrayal of the insidiousness if rape culture. It daringly turns the Whodunit genre on its head by asking the question ""Who hasn't done it?"" As in, who has not been complicit in sexual harm?
