INSTANT NATIONAL BESTSELLER A vivid and meticulous true-crime story that exposes the deep fractures in a system that repeatedly fails to protect women, while tracking the once-cold trail of a murderer still at large.
In this riveting true-crime story about victimhood, power, and control, Robertson examines the broken system in place, and asks: if it isn\'t looking out for the vulnerable, the threatened, the hunted--who among us is it protecting?.
I Got a Name uses one woman\'s tragic story to boldly interrogate themes of gender-based violence and the pervasive issues that plague our society.
In compelling, vibrant prose, she works tirelessly to piece together Krystal\'s story, retracing the dire failings of Canadian law enforcement and Bax\'s last steps.
Three decades later, Eliza Robertson has re-opened the case.
Ronald Bax disappeared without a trace.
At 29 years old, the woman who seemed invincible--who was a beloved sister, daughter, and friend--was shot and killed at her home in the Yukon.
Bax\'s threat had been all too real.
The officer brushed her off.
Krystal was scared but she was smart: she reached out to the RCMP for a police escort home.
He terrorized and intimidated her for months on end, and finally issued a chilling warning to her and his ex-wife: the hunt is on .
But soon Krystal became the new outlet for Bax\'s rage.
So when her best friend needed support to leave her abusive husband, Ronald Bax, Krystal leapt into action.
Most importantly, she was tough as nails.
Krystal Senyk was the kind of friend everybody wants: a reliable confidant, a handywoman of all trades, and an infectious creative with an adventurous spirit.
