The present-day murder case is linked to seven campmates apparently being targeted by the perpetrator of a murder at the camp in 1875.

Character Revelations

Continuity

  • Young Murdoch uses two lessons learned from Father Keegan in Shipwreck : "...nothing to fear from the dead " and "What do you observe?"
  • First time anyone has called Murdoch "Billy". When young Murdoch is asked "Don't your friends call you Billy?" He replies, "Not really."
  • Again, Rebecca loses her position at the morgue and regains it back again with Dr. Ogden as her champion.

Historical References

  • Algonquin Provincial Park, established in 1893, it is the oldest provincial park in Canada. Over 2,400 lakes and 1,200 kilometres of streams and rivers are located within the park. These were formed by the retreat of the glaciers during the last ice age. The park is considered part of the "border" between Northern Ontario and Southern Ontario. The park is in an area of transition between northern coniferous forest and southern deciduous forest. This unique mixture of forest types, and the wide variety of environments in the park, allows the park to support an uncommon diversity of plant and animal species.
