· Cold Case BC is Eve Lazarus' fifth book with us, following Cold Case Vancouver (2015), Blood, Sweat and Fear (2017), Murder by Milkshake (2018) and Vancouver Exposed (2020). · Cold Case BC is a sequel of sorts to Cold Case Vancouver , widening Eve's gaze on infamous murder and missing persons cases to the entire province of British Columbia, Canada. Cases stretch back as far as the 1940s up to the 2010s. There will also be a follow-up story to Eve's "Babes in the Woods" story (from Cold Case Vancouver ) about the two murdered children in Stanley Park found in 1948, whose names were just revealed in February 2022 in a story that Eve broke on her website (she subsequently did a number of Vancouver and national interviews about it). · The idea for this book started with Eve's true crime podcast entitled Cold Case Canada, which she started in 2020 and which boasts a strong regular listenership across North America and downloads currently totaling over 200,000. Like the podcast, the book will appeal to true crime readers everywhere, given the consistent popularity of the genre across TV dramatizations, documentaries and podcasts.

com/ · True crime continues to be one of the most popular subjects in pop culture, pervasive not only in books but in podcasts and streaming documentaries and limited series. (Side note: Eve's book Murder by Milkshake is currently being developed as a possible limited series.) · Indigenous content: Three chapters are about Indigenous victims on the Highway of Tears. Running through these chapters are brief descriptions of the many victims who have disappeared and/or been found along the notorious "Highway of Tears" (Highway 16 in northern British Columbia). Ch 6 is about the first Highway victim, Gloria Moody, and also talks about law enforcement prejudice against the Indigenous community. Ch 9 is about 12-year-old Monica Jack, an Indigenous girl who attended residential school. There is also information about Indigenous victims Barbara LaRocque and Lucy Ann Johnson, though these cases are unrelated to the Highway of Tears.
