'Fascinating' Margaret Atwood Can taking the law into your own
hands be the right thing to do? In June 2013, three upstanding
citizens of a small town in Nova Scotia murdered their neighbour,
Phillip Boudreau, while out fishing. Boudreau was an inventive
small-time criminal who had terrorised and entertained Petit de
Grat for two decades. He had been in prison for nearly half his
adult life. He was funny and frightening, loathed, loved and
feared. Boudreau seemed invincible, a miscreant who would plague
the village forever. As many people said, if those fellows hadn't
killed him, someone else would have. Blood in the Water is a
gripping story in a brilliantly drawn setting, about power and law,
security and self-respect, and the nature of community. And at its
heart is a disturbing question: are there times when taking the law
into your own hands is not only understandable but the responsible
thing to do?
