<p>A 1909 Windigo murder trial. Soon to be a major motion picture.\nCharged with murder was old Jack Fiddler, a shaman and leader of the Sucker clan from the upper Severn river in what is now northwestern Ontario. Joseph Fiddler, Jack's younger brother, was also charged. Their alleged crime was the killing of a possessed woman who had turned into the dreaded windigo.\nOne of the most unusual cases in the history of Canadian jurisprudence commenced in Norway House, Manitoba, in the fall of 1907. Killing the Shamen is the true and fascinating account of the events that lead up to the "murder," the trial, and the aftermath. The present work is one volume in a trilogy of Sandy Lake stories, including Sacred Legends and Legends from the Forest.</p>
