She raises her hand and Mayor Cooper ignores her unless another councillor objects. Not that any of them listen to what she says. When the Mayor passes out a commemorative brick to each councillor in memory of the now destroyed historic sweater factory owned by his family, Libby is not impressed.\u003cbr\u003eNow she walks into an In Camera meeting and finds out that everyone knows about the huge Lake Ontario waterfront proposal to be built in her downtown ward. She knows nothing. The century old merry-g-round, the petting zoo, the historic warehouses, the rooming houses all gone. In their place a white elephant convention centre paid by the city and a hotel. Huge condos looming just like the modern eyesores in the middle of the historic Gabardine downtown. They replaced the old Kitten Sweater Factory. The view of the waterfront will be totally blocked off. She and Jeff Barber try to get the information out of In Camera to warn the public. They fail. Everyone else passes the motion to go ahead with the developers' plans. It's not right. Then Jeff is murdered.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jane Mitchell\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1998682250\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781998682256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Jane Mitchell, 1000trees\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/17\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.54lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.44d","brand":"Jane Mitchell","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47637477687551,"sku":"9781998682256","price":14.35,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_03ada369-524c-40b1-ba11-06d73cb965a3.jpg?v=1765116442","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/bad-council-jane-mitchell-9781998682256","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
