A horrific resident-on-resident murder at the Toronto Manor Long-Term Care Home shocks the city and leaves people wondering what goes on behind the walls of the homes built to care for society’s most vulnerable citizens. To find some answers, a small group of friends come up with a desperate idea-sending one of them into the home in an 'undercover' capacity to glean information and hopefully bring about change. Retired investigative journalist Larry agrees to be the plant, and what he discovers is worse than anyone imagined.Inside the Manor, Larry uncovers drug theft, sexual assault, and violence, but his investigation ends abruptly and must be picked up by Abbey Roberts, RN and Director of Care, who fights to protect her residents with limited financial and human resources.Terror at the Manor is the gripping second book in the Abbey Roberts series, and it pulls readers into the hidden realities of long-term care. Suspenseful and emotional this story exposes the shadows lurking in institutional care and the courage it takes to confront them.
