“Betrayals” is a murder mystery novel set in a fictional small city in Canada. It features the sexual exploitation of a fourteen year-old immigrant boy by his female language teacher. The novel examines the personal and psychological factors which led to this distortion of the teacher-student relationship. However, the teacher is murdered. A police investigation follows -- with startling revelations involving a series of suspects, each with a motive to kill. Murder touches and maims the lives of all who come near it. The reader is plunged into the world of drug dealing, a string of burglaries, the betrayal of lovers, and the result of the flight of an immigrant family to Canada to escape an abusive father. The novel ends with a tragic twist of fate.
