When the mechanical malfunction brought eighteen-year-old McDonald’s employee Derek Wood into the restaurant’s back room, he saw the safe and got a dangerous idea. It would be so easy to prop the back door open, allowing two friends to sneak inside and steal the money. Wood assumed there was at least $200,000 in the cashbox—an incredible haul for just a few minutes’ work—but things would not go according to plan.\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e The robbery went wrong from the start, and within minutes, a fast-food restaurant in the wilds of Nova Scotia was turned into a bloodbath. Wood and his accomplices attacked the employees, killing three instantly and leaving the fourth for dead. In the safe, where they had expected to find a fortune, there was barely $2,000. They fled the scene, instigating a manhunt that would captivate the nation.\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e In the tradition of \u003ci\u003eIn Cold Blood\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eThe Onion Field\u003c\/i\u003e, this stunning work of true crime tells the story of the small-town murder that shocked a nation. Phonse Jessome brings a trained journalist’s eye to the case, which remains one of the most horrifying incidents of suburban violence in recent history.","brand":"MysteriousPress.com\/Open Road","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47127167992048,"sku":"9781504038003","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781504038003_p0.jpg?v=1763710387","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781504038003","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
