Charges are laid, and Joanne’s new beau, Zack Shreve, is hired by Parker as his defence counsel. At the trial, which Joanne is covering for NationTV, Shreve focuses the jury’s attention not on  who shot whom, but on why — on the ethics governing the relationship between a journalist and her subject. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMorrissey’s betrayal of her subjects opens up questions about an even more serious betrayal — the betrayal of children by their parents. While everyone condemns Parker for taking a gun to Morrissey, no one can fault his defence of his only child, Glen, a transsexual. The mutual love and commitment between this father and child stands in stark contrast to the alienation between Howard Dowhaniuk, Saskatchewan’s former premier, and his son, Charlie.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOn the day of the verdict, Morrissey is brutally murdered, and Joanne’s investigation quickly has her trying to unravel the endless knot of the relationship between parent and child. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA deeply affecting novel of trust and betrayal, \u003ci\u003eThe Endless Knot\u003c\/i\u003e is a superb mystery by a virtuoso of the genre.\u003c\/p\u003e\n                        \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                        \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eGail Bowen\u003c\/b\u003e’s Joanne Kilbourn mysteries have made her one of Canada’s most popular crime writers.
