Imagine this reverse scenario. An Australian writes a book in which the hero is Australian, the victim is Australian and peppered throughout the book are stereotypical references to Canadians, one chapter is entitled Too Many Canadians, and lo and behold, surprise, surprise, the murderer is Canadian. I wonder what a Canadian picking up the book might think.
By the way, it was seven backpackers, not seventeen.
