Summary of The Billionaire Murders by Kevin Donovan

Disclaimer: This book is a summary of The Billionaire Murders. It is not the original book and it is not intended to replace the original book.

The investigation of a horrendous high-society crime is carried out by a renowned journalist who goes outside the norms.

People who are victims include the wealthy, charities, and socialites. Barry and Honey Sherman gave off the image of having a wealthy existence. However, the globe was startled aback in the later part of 2017 when their bones were found in a bizarre arrangement within their opulent house in Toronto. The first version of the incident was that it was a murder-suicide, with the victims being found seated next to their basement swimming pool with belts around their necks. However, the police ultimately established that it was a planned, deliberate double killing. Friends of the developer of one of the top generic pharmaceutical corporations in the world and his wife, a powerhouse in the field of charitable giving in Canada, felt the scenario to be totally unexplainable without any explanation. It is reported that their whole fortune is significantly above $4.7 billion when taken into account.

One might also consider the opposing side of the tale. During his fifty-year career, Barry Sherman was a self-described workaholic, a well-known risk-taker, and a disruptor. He was also a strategic genius who developed a massive generic medicines firm named Apotex Inc. Regarded as a caring friend by many, Sherman was also loathed by others. He was blamed for curtailing academic freedom and manipulating the courts to win at any cost. Upset with architectural problems at his mansion, he sued and recouped millions from craftsmen. At the time of his death, Sherman had just won a decades-old legal dispute involving four relatives who claimed 20 percent of his riches.

Toronto Star investigative writer Kevin Donovan follows the frightening narrative from the beginning, questioning family members, acquaintances, and coworkers, and shines fresh light on the Shermans' lives and the horrible double murder. Deeply detailed and authoritative, The Billionaire Murders is an endlessly engaging account of an unusual and interesting murder.
