 | | Proietti was Montreal's own Machine Gun Molly, shot dead by police at age 27 after a wild, guns-blazing, high-speed chase through the streets of the city's north end. |
 | | It is a whole netherworld that Germain conjures up: the red-light district, the hookers, the hoods, the east- and west-end gangs, Monica's lover Richard Blass who died in a hail of police gunfire in 1975, the drug-trafficker Roger Provencal who protected her, the poverty-stricken families who had to use cardboard to insulate their apartments. |
