CBC reporter Bobbi-Jean MacKinnon covered the Oland case from the beginning. In Shadow of Doubt, she examines the controversial investigation: from the day Richard Oland's battered body was discovered to the conclusion of Dennis Oland's trial, including the hotly debated verdict and its aftermath. Meticulously examining the evidence, MacKinnon vividly reconstructs the cases for both the prosecution and the defence.

Shadow of Doubt is a revealing look at a sensational crime, the tribulations of a prominent family, an the inner workings of the justice system that led to Dennis Oland's contentious conviction.
