I bought it 2 years ago but I only start to read it these days. I'm almost done, I highly recommend you buy it, especially if the price is low it would be a shame not to take advantage of it

AM do actually HAVE the book?
My wife ordered it in Dec for Christmas and Amazon states it hasn't been released yet. I'm still waiting with no release date.

Sorry for the late reply.

I now have four versions: two ebooks (French, English) and two paperbacks (French, English).

The sale alert was with respect to the Kobo ebook version of the newly released English translation.

Last December, via sites like Amazon and Kobo, anyone was able to preorder either the ebook or paperback version of the English edition, with Monday, June 7, 2022 having been advertised as the delivery date.

Downloading of the ebook of the preordered English edition should have been immediately available on June 7. The link on the Amazon Canada site is https://www.amazon.ca/Inside-Montreal-M ... 770416676/.

I would have expected the paperback version to have been delivered on or shortly after June 7.

The co-authors didn't see the English edition for the first time until Saturday, June 4 when they were in Toronto for the festival event. So perhaps delivery of the paperback version has been delayed?

I started and finished the English version today and in a nutshell Andrew Scoppa was a long term police informant who bitched and moaned about everyone else while never taking any responsibility for his own actions and tried to play the victim

You nailed it. And I’d take most of what he said with a huge grain of salt.

Actually, if you noticed.... they mostly only published and printed the things they could independently verify through Law Enforcement or other verified sources. The whole book is written like that.

Hey man hope all is well, but was there anything else interesting or noteworthy from your conversations with Seguin and Thibault that you haven't shared yet. Thank you.
