The Cades lived in a quaint, single-family dwelling on Cahill Drive, two blocks south of Warner Park. In contrast to the cramped design of most suburban developments, the homes in this part of town had been built with a little breathing space in mind. The area had been cut from very old forest, the many trees left standing all huge and majestic, giving the area a shaded, rural feel. Compared to Vickie’s townhouse in Mississauga, eight minutes east on the 401, Oakville seemed a paradise.
