Title: Among the Bros: A Fraternity Crime Story Author: Max Marshall Narrator: Stephen Graybill Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 29 minutes Release date: November 7, 2023 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 3.14 of Total 7 Ratings of Narrator: 3 of Total 3 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: “Among the Bros is a harrowing and disturbing book. I have read about fraternity life but nothing like this. This book will blow your mind, each page digging deeper into the unimaginable. Except every word is true.”—Buzz Bissinger, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Mosquito Bowl and Friday Night Lights A brilliant young investigative journalist traces a murder and a multi-million-dollar drug ring, leading to an unprecedented look at elite American fraternity life. When Max Marshall arrived on the campus of the College of Charleston in 2018, he hoped to investigate a small-time fraternity Xanax trafficking ring. Instead, he found a homicide, several student deaths, and millions of dollars circulating around the Deep South. He also opened up an elite world hidden to outsiders. Behind the pop culture cliches of “Greek life” lies one of the major breeding grounds of American power: 80 percent of Fortune 500 executives, 85 percent of Supreme Court justices, and all but four presidents since 1825 have been fraternity members. With unprecedented immersion, this book takes readers inside that bubble. Under the live oaks and Spanish moss of Travel + Leisure’s “Most Beautiful Campus in America,” Marshall traces several “C of C” boys’ journeys from fraternity pledges to interstate drug traffickers. The result is a true-life story of hubris, status, money, drugs, and murder—one that lifts a curtain on an ecstatic and disturbing way of life. With expert pacing and a cool eye, he follows a never-ending party that continues after funerals and mass arrests. An addictive and haunting portrait of tomorrow’s American establishment, Among the Bros is nonfiction storytelling at its finest.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/650870Tue, 07 Nov 2023 08:43:37 +0000Dayana WestPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/650870 to listen full audiobooks.

But though she had the support of the agency, Andrea grew frustrated with the service's bureaucratic idiosyncrasies, and left the force after twelve years. Two decades later, however, she stumbles across a mystery that pulls her right back where she left off: three young men have vanished from the Pacific Crest Trail, the 2,650-mile trek made famous by Cheryl Strayed's Wild, and no one has been able to find them. It’s bugging the hell out of her.   Andrea’s concern soon leads her to a wild environment unlike any she’s ever encountered: missing person Facebook groups. Andrea launches an investigation, joining forces with an eclectic team of amateurs who are determined to solve the cases by land and by screen: a mother of the missing, a retired pharmacy manager, and a mapmaker who monitors terrorist activity for the government. Together, they track the activities of kidnappers and murderers, investigate a cult, rescue a psychic in peril, cross paths with an unconventional scientist, and reunite an international fugitive with his family. Searching for the missing is a brutal psychological and physical test with the highest stakes, but eventually their hardships begin to bear strange fruits—ones that lead them to places and people they never saw coming.   Beautifully written, heartfelt, and at times harrowing, TRAIL OF THE LOST paints a vivid picture of hiker culture and its complicated relationship with the ever-expanding online realm, all while exploring the power and limits of determination, generosity, and hope. It also offers a deep awe of the natural world, even as it unearths just how vast and treacherous it can be.    On the TRAIL OF THE LOST, you may not find what you are looking for, but you will certainly find more than you seek. ** THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER **]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/650341Tue, 22 Aug 2023 08:43:37 +0000Dayana WestPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/650341 to listen full audiobooks.

Title: Carnage: A succulent Chinese meal, Mr Rent-a-Kill and the Australian Manson murders Author: Mark Dapin Narrator: Henry Nixon Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 5 minutes Release date: August 2, 2023 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: Millions have been entertained by the viral video of a man being arrested after a ‘succulent Chinese meal’. But when Mark Dapin investigated, it emerged that this man's story went to the heart of the Australian underworld. A true crime cult classic in the making.  Whether you know it as the ‘succulent Chinese meal’ video, or ‘democracy manifest’, chances are you have seen the video of baritone larrikin Jack Karlson getting arrested outside a Brisbane Chinese restaurant in 1991. The Guardian called it ‘perhaps the pre-eminent Australian meme of the last 10 years’. When Karlson called crime writer Mark Dapin out of the blue, though, Dapin hadn’t heard of him. But there was enough that intrigued him about this theatrical outlaw to continue the conversation. Over the following months emerged a dark and complex past. It turned out that Karlson had been in the background of many notorious incidents in late-twentieth century Australian crime, from collaborating with infamous prison-playwright Jim McNeil to befriending hitman Christopher Dale Flannery (Mr Rent-a-Kill). But most shockingly of all, Karlson’s life story led Dapin to shed new light on a number of unsolved murders, by two serial killers. The result is an extraordinary, deeply revealing portrait of Australian crime from the 60s to the 2010s – a portrait of carnage. ‘Mark Dapin could never be accused of glorifying crime, but he is guilty as sin for understanding it. Inhabited by flawed humans, filled with violence, humour, tears and dreams, Carnage is a classic Australian crime story.’ Gary Jubelin, author of I Catch Killers 'True crime at its grim and richly entertaining best, and – let’s face it – its truest.’ Robert Drewe, author of The Shark Net ‘If ever there was a book crammed with colourful villains who are “mad, bad and dangerous to know,” it’s definitely Mark Dapin’s extraordinary book, Carnage.’ Kate McClymont, author of He Who Must Be Obeid ‘Carnage is a window into Australian mayhem, killingly funny and beautifully told. Dapin finds pathos in a twisted world.’ Matthew Spencer, author of Black River ‘Carnage begins by probing what seems a minor curiosity – an internet meme centred on a colourful character – then takes a turn into the lives of traumatised youths hurled without care or thought into brutalising reformatories. From there they graduate to rorts, robberies, violence. Bleak lives interspersed with occasional forays into squaresville – spouses, kids, even jobs – and attempts at betterment via theatre and literature. A unique, deeply felt take on the Australian underworld.’ Peter Doyle, author of Crooks Like Us ​‘The moment I start reading anything by Mark Dapin I’m captivated, intrigued and engaged for the entire journey.

But when Mark Dapin investigated, it emerged that this man's story went to the heart of the Australian underworld. A true crime cult classic in the making.  Whether you know it as the ‘succulent Chinese meal’ video, or ‘democracy manifest’, chances are you have seen the video of baritone larrikin Jack Karlson getting arrested outside a Brisbane Chinese restaurant in 1991. The Guardian called it ‘perhaps the pre-eminent Australian meme of the last 10 years’. When Karlson called crime writer Mark Dapin out of the blue, though, Dapin hadn’t heard of him.

Title: Narcas: The Secret Rise of Women in Latin America's Cartels Author: Deborah Bonello Narrator: Mai Ling Turner Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 5 hours 7 minutes Release date: July 25, 2023 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: Drug transporters. Money launderers. Killers. Street drug vendors. Weapons traffickers. Kidnappers. Extortionists. VICE journalist Deborah Bonello reports from the trenches in this first-ever in-depth exploration of the hidden power women wield in Latin American drug cartels You’ve heard of Pablo Escobar, Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman, and Rafael Caro Quintero. Their names conjure ghoulish images of bloody streets, white powder, bundles of weed, and a particular flavor of machismo unique to ruthless druglords. But what of the drugladies, las narcas? For the first time, investigative reporter Deborah Bonello takes you behind the curtain to introduce the women at the helm of organized crime south of the US-Mexico border. These women are the powerhouses behind violent cartels; masterminds of extortion rackets; right-hand ladies to El Chapo’s cocaine flow to the US; and matriarchs of major drug trafficking families. In these pages, you will meet women like Doña Digna, the leader of the Valle cartel, and Guadalupe Fernandez Valencia, one of “El Chapo” Guzman’s closest confidants. Narcas, for the first time, gives voice to the women of notorious drug-trafficking monarchies, meticulously documenting the variety of roles they play. Bonello chronicles the complexity of their actions and their desires, the grey chasm between victims and victimizers, co-option and agency, and right and wrong. She examines why women’s experiences are under-reported, emphasizing the importance of understanding women as fully capable beings who are often as ambitious, innovative, ruthless, and violent as their male counterparts. With careful detail, comprehensive research, and groundbreaking storytelling, Narcas paints a vivid picture of the women behind some of the most notorious drug cartels. You will not see Sebastiana Cottón or Marixa Lemus in the stereotypical portrayals of beautiful narco wives or girlfriends, or in the faces of trafficking survivors or drug mules. Rather, you’ll encounter—at staggering rates—the female cartel killers, money launderers, logistical heads, and transporters of Latin America’s infamous crime syndicates.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/638820Tue, 25 Jul 2023 08:43:37 +0000Dayana WestPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/638820 to listen full audiobooks.

Well, not his name, exactly. Whomever this man was, remains a mystery but there are few people who haven't heard of his nickname: Jack the Ripper. The same is true for those said to have died at his hands. If Polly Nicholls, Annie Chapman, Elizabeth Stride, Catherine Eddowes and Mary Jane Kelly had not fallen to his knife, their names would have been lost to history. Instead, they themselves are as much a part of the folklore as their killer. Then there are those who investigated the crimes: the ordinary men, doing their jobs as best they could, who will always be associated with the failed attempts to catch this monster. But if those crimes had happened today, how would they be investigated and how would the approach differ? There is no doubt, how detectives work has changed dramatically over those 130 years. Although, in many senses, things are very much the same. Solving murders relies on an understanding of people, be that the victims, the witnesses and, most importantly, the killers themselves. In Murder Investigation Team: Jack the Ripper, while journeying through these infamous murders, through meticulous contemporary research, witness statements and reporting, ex-detective Steven Keogh will revisit the crimes that were committed, why these lives were taken, and attempt to discover just who was Jack the Ripper? Applying modern-day investigative approaches to the 19th century investigation, and with ground-breaking insight from one of the UK's leading criminal profilers, Pippa Gregory, join Steven on a gruesome and incredible journey of discovery into one of the most infamous crimes in British history.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/656081Thu, 20 Jul 2023 08:43:37 +0000Dayana WestPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/656081 to listen full audiobooks.

A really great read.” —Nicholas Pileggi, author of Wiseguy and Casino and screenwriter of Goodfellas From Matt Birkbeck—investigative journalist and executive producer of Netflix’s #1 movie Girl in the Picture—a revelatory father/surrogate son story that takes readers deep inside the inner workings of the mob through the eyes of William “Big Billy” D’Elia, the right-hand man to legendary mafia kingpin Russell Bufalino, who ran organized crime in the US for more than fifty years. William “Big Billy” D’Elia is Mafia royalty. The “adopted” son of legendary organized crime boss Russell Bufalino, for decades D’Elia had unequaled access to the man the FBI and US Justice Department considered one of the leading organized crime figures in the United States. But the government had no real idea as to the breadth of Bufalino’s power and influence—or that it was Bufalino, from his bucolic home base in Pittston, Pennsylvania, who reigned over the five families in New York and other organized crime families throughout the country. For nearly thirty years, D’Elia was at Bufalino’s side, and “Russ’s son” was a witness and participant to major historical events that have stymied law enforcement, perplexed journalists, and produced false and wild narratives in books and movies—not the least of which being the infamous disappearance of union boss Jimmy Hoffa. In addition, their reach was illustrated by their relationships with Frank Sinatra, Marlon Brando, Michael Jackson, Suge Knight, and many other celebrities and personalities. D’Elia became the de facto leader of the Bufalino family upon Russell Bufalino’s imprisonment in 1979, and he officially took control upon Bufalino’s death in 1994 until his arrest in 2006, when he was charged with money laundering and the attempted murder of a witness. He pled guilty to money laundering and witness tampering and was released from federal prison in 2012.

Title: Evidence of Things Seen: True Crime in an Era of Reckoning Author: Sarah Weinman Narrator: Xe Sands Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 32 minutes Release date: July 4, 2023 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: From Sarah Weinman, the award-winning editor of Unspeakable Acts, a groundbreaking new anthology showcasing the future of the true crime genre True crime, as an entertainment genre, has always prioritized clear narrative arcs: victims wronged, police detectives in pursuit, suspects apprehended, justice delivered. But what stories have been ignored? In Evidence of Things Seen, fourteen of the most innovative crime writers working today cast a light on the cases that give crucial insight into our society. Wesley Lowery writes about a lynching left unsolved for decades by an indifferent police force and a family’s quest for answers. Justine van der Leun reports on the thousands of women in prison for defending themselves from abuse. May Jeong reveals how the Atlanta spa shootings tell a story of America. Edited by acclaimed writer Sarah Weinman, and with an introduction by attorney and host of the Undisclosed podcast Rabia Chaudry, this anthology pulls back the curtain on how crime itself is a by-product of America’s systemic harms and inequalities. And in doing so, it reveals how the genre of true crime can be a catalyst for social change.

Title: Evidence of Things Seen: True Crime in an Era of Reckoning Author: Sarah Weinman Narrator: Xe Sands Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 32 minutes Release date: July 4, 2023 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: From Sarah Weinman, the award-winning editor of Unspeakable Acts, a groundbreaking new anthology showcasing the future of the true crime genre True crime, as an entertainment genre, has always prioritized clear narrative arcs: victims wronged, police detectives in pursuit, suspects apprehended, justice delivered. But what stories have been ignored? In Evidence of Things Seen, fourteen of the most innovative crime writers working today cast a light on the cases that give crucial insight into our society. Wesley Lowery writes about a lynching left unsolved for decades by an indifferent police force and a family’s quest for answers. Justine van der Leun reports on the thousands of women in prison for defending themselves from abuse. May Jeong reveals how the Atlanta spa shootings tell a story of America. Edited by acclaimed writer Sarah Weinman, and with an introduction by attorney and host of the Undisclosed podcast Rabia Chaudry, this anthology pulls back the curtain on how crime itself is a by-product of America’s systemic harms and inequalities. And in doing so, it reveals how the genre of true crime can be a catalyst for social change. These works combine brilliant storytelling with incisive cultural examinations—and challenge each of us to ask what justice should look like.

In this spellbinding portrait of obsession and flawed genius, the best-selling author of The Stranger in the Woods brings us into Breitwieser’s strange world—unlike most thieves, he never stole for money, keeping all his treasures in a single room where he could admire them. For centuries, works of art have been stolen in countless ways from all over the world, but no one has been quite as successful at it as the master thief Stéphane Breitwieser. Carrying out more than two hundred heists over nearly eight years—in museums and cathedrals all over Europe—Breitwieser, along with his girlfriend who worked as his lookout, stole more than three hundred objects, until it all fell apart in spectacular fashion. In The Art Thief, Michael Finkel brings us into Breitwieser’s strange and fascinating world. Unlike most thieves, Breitwieser never stole for money. Instead, he displayed all his treasures in a pair of secret rooms where he could admire them to his heart’s content. Possessed of a remarkable athleticism and an innate ability to circumvent practically any security system, Breitwieser managed to pull off a breathtaking number of audacious thefts. Yet these strange talents bred a growing disregard for risk and an addict’s need to score, leading Breitwieser to ignore his girlfriend’s pleas to stop—until one final act of hubris brought everything crashing down. This is a riveting story of art, crime, love, and an insatiable hunger to possess beauty at any cost. Cover images: (top) Bat by Albrecht Dürer.

Barbara Butcher was early in her recovery from alcoholism when she found an unexpected lifeline: a job at the Medical Examiner’s Office in New York City. The second woman ever hired for the role of Death Investigator in Manhattan, she was the first to last more than three months. The work was gritty, demanding, morbid, and sometimes dangerous—and she loved it. Butcher (yes, that’s her real name, and she has heard all the jokes) spent day in and day out investigating double homicides, gruesome suicides, and most heartbreaking of all, underage rape victims who had also been murdered. In What the Dead Know, she writes with the kind of New York attitude and bravado you might expect from decades in the field, investigating more than 5,500 death scenes, 680 of which were homicides. In the opening chapter, she describes how just from sheer luck of having her arm in a cast, she avoided a boobytrapped suicide. Later in her career, she describes working the nation’s largest mass murder, the attack on 9/11, where she and her colleagues initially relied on family members’ descriptions to help distinguish among the 21,900 body parts of the victims. This is the “breathtakingly honest, compassionate, and raw” (Patricia Cornwell), “completely unputdownable” (Adriana Trigiani, New York Times bestselling author of The Good Left Undone) real-life story of a woman who, in dealing with death every day, learned surprising lessons about life—and how some of those lessons saved her from becoming a statistic herself.

I know I'm innocent and I’m not afraid of what you’ll turn up.” — Steven Truscott to Julian Sher “Until You Are Dead” chronicles the loss of Canada’s innocence. Prior to June 11, 1959, Canadian parents could allow their children to play outdoors, unsupervised, in places children traditionally love: schoolyards, fields and nearby swimming holes. But on that hot summer day, when the body of a twelve-year-old girl turned up in a woody area near Clinton, Ontario, that innocence was shattered. The girl’s name was Lynne Harper and she had been raped and murdered. The summer was barely over before a popular schoolboy named Steven Truscott, fourteen years old at the time, was tried, convicted and sentenced to hang. Truscott spent ten years in prison after the federal cabinet commuted his death sentence. He has always maintained his innocence. His trial in 1959 was the most famous and controversial in Canadian history. As a producer at CBC TV’s the fifth estate, Julian Sher spent two years investigating the Steven Truscott story for an explosive documentary. When it aired in the spring of 2000, more than 1.4 million Canadians watched the program that sparked headlines across the country and questions in Parliament. Now, in this gripping and shocking account, Sher gives us the full story of that investigation, including new material not revealed on television. From the news that a young girl had gone missing in 1959 to the efforts four decades later by lawyers — those who assisted Guy Paul Morin and others — preparing an application to the federal justice minister for a verdict of wrongful conviction, this is a thorough and chilling examination of the case that rocked the country, and the man who continues to reside at its centre. When Steven Truscott decided to come out of hiding and tell his story to the fifth estate, there were no deals, no commitments, no promises. If Sher and the fifth estate were to investigate one of Canada’s most controversial murder cases, they had to have unfettered access. Truscott readily agreed. "Until You Are Dead” reveals witnesses not called upon to testify; other, more likely suspects, including a known pedophile, never questioned; and important leads that were kept from the defence, the judge and jurors. Boxes of police files and military records hidden or buried in government vaults reveal astonishing and disturbing information about an investigation and trial the authorities always claimed was above reproach. All told, the book uncovers a wealth of information that could have lead to a different verdict and a very different life for the young boy who was nearly executed over forty years ago.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/634646Tue, 13 Jun 2023 08:43:37 +0000Dayana WestPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/634646 to listen full audiobooks.

Title: The Hollywood Con Queen: The Hunt for an Evil Genius Author: Scott C. Johnson Narrator: Sean Pratt Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 3 minutes Release date: June 6, 2023 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: Don’t Miss the Apple TV+ Docuseries Streaming Now! “This book is as engrossing as anything by Agatha Christie, as unsettling as a novel by Stephen King, and reported with a vigorous empathy that leaves Truman Capote in the dust. Scott Johnson’s courage, his relentless quest for the truth behind a set of brilliantly obscured cruelties, and his examination of the very fabric of psychopathy ultimately lead him to question how the appalling lies spat out by the Con Queen relate to the daily untruths required of us all. His narrative is further deepened by breathtakingly honest reportage about himself and his family, which led him to this radical investigation of a deformed mind. I cannot remember the last time I read anything with such breathless fascination.”—Andrew Solomon The spellbinding tale of an epic international manhunt for a psychopathic con artist who exploited the dreams of creators to steal dozens of identities and millions of dollars. Blending years of deep reporting with distinctive, powerful prose, Scott C. Johnson’s unique true crime narrative recounts the tale of the brilliantly cunning imposter who carved a path of financial and emotional destruction across the world. Gifted with a diabolical flair for impersonation, manipulation, and deception, the Con Queen used their skill with accents and deft psychological insight to sweep through the entertainment industry.

Title: The Hollywood Con Queen: The Hunt for an Evil Genius Author: Scott C. Johnson Narrator: Sean Pratt Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 3 minutes Release date: June 6, 2023 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: Don’t Miss the Apple TV+ Docuseries Streaming Now! “This book is as engrossing as anything by Agatha Christie, as unsettling as a novel by Stephen King, and reported with a vigorous empathy that leaves Truman Capote in the dust. Scott Johnson’s courage, his relentless quest for the truth behind a set of brilliantly obscured cruelties, and his examination of the very fabric of psychopathy ultimately lead him to question how the appalling lies spat out by the Con Queen relate to the daily untruths required of us all. His narrative is further deepened by breathtakingly honest reportage about himself and his family, which led him to this radical investigation of a deformed mind. I cannot remember the last time I read anything with such breathless fascination.”—Andrew Solomon The spellbinding tale of an epic international manhunt for a psychopathic con artist who exploited the dreams of creators to steal dozens of identities and millions of dollars. Blending years of deep reporting with distinctive, powerful prose, Scott C. Johnson’s unique true crime narrative recounts the tale of the brilliantly cunning imposter who carved a path of financial and emotional destruction across the world. Gifted with a diabolical flair for impersonation, manipulation, and deception, the Con Queen used their skill with accents and deft psychological insight to sweep through the entertainment industry.

Title: In My DNA: My Career Investigating Your Worst Nightmares Author: Lindsey Wade Narrator: Patricia Santomasso Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 13 minutes Release date: May 30, 2023 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: In 1986, a young girl in Tacoma, Washington, Jennifer Bastian, went out for a bike ride in a local park and never came home. Later her body was found, mutilated and lifeless, but the case went cold, and Jennifer's killer was free. The senseless killing of an innocent girl left an indelible black cloud over Tacoma for three decades and was seared into the memory of young Lindsey Wade, also from Tacoma, who went on to become the detective who would crack the case. Horrifying crimes against women and girls motivated Wade's twenty-one-year law enforcement career and ignited her relentless pursuit of justice for victims. Journey with Detective Wade as she investigates shocking sex crimes and homicides in the Tacoma area, where she has been crucial in bringing new DNA evidence into each cold case. From serial rapists to cold-blooded killers, Wade never backs down from the challenges these investigations present—even adding Ted Bundy's DNA to the national database.

It's a signal paradox of our times that we live in an information society but do not know how it works. And without understanding how our information is stored, used and protected, we are vulnerable to having it exploited. In Fancy Bear Goes Phishing, Scott Shapiro exposes the secrets of the digital age. With lucidity and wit, he establishes that cybercrime has less to do with defective programming than with the faulty wiring of our psyches and society. And because hacking is a human story, he tells the fascinating tales of perpetrators including Robert Morris Jr, the graduate student who accidentally crashed the internet in the 1980s, and the Bulgarian 'Dark Avenger' who invented the first mutating computer-virus engine. We also meet a sixteen-year-old from South Boston who took control of Paris Hilton's cell phone and the Russian intelligence officers who sought to take control of a US election, among others. In telling their stories, Shapiro exposes the hackers' tool kits and gives fresh answers to vital questions: why is the internet so vulnerable? What can we do in response? The result is a lively and original account of the future of hacking, espionage and war, and of how to live in an era of cybercrime. ©2023 Scott Shapiro (P)2023 Penguin Audio]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/620563Tue, 23 May 2023 08:43:37 +0000Dayana WestPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/620563 to listen full audiobooks.

Riegel Narrator: Chris Monteiro Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 39 minutes Release date: May 9, 2023 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: On the night of August 6, 1930, Joseph Force Crater, a newly appointed judge and prominent figure in many circles of Manhattan, hailed a taxi in the heart of Broadway and vanished into thin air. Despite a decades-long international manhunt led by the New York Police Department's esteemed Missing Persons Bureau, the reason for Crater's disappearance remains a confounding mystery. In the early months of the investigation, evidence implicated and imperiled New York's top officials, including then-Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt and Mayor Jimmy Walker, as well as the city's Tammany Hall political machine, lawyers and judges, and a theater mogul. Drawing on new sources, including NYPD case files and court records, and overlooked evidence discovered years later, Riegel pieces together the puzzle of what likely happened to Joseph Crater and why. To uncover the mystery, he delves into Crater's ascension into the scintillating and corrupt world of Manhattan in the Roaring Twenties and Jazz Age.

The powerful narrative reveals the deeper meaning of the events on The Wager, showing that it was not only the captain and crew who ended up on trial, but the very idea of empire. A Best Book of the Year: The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The New Yorker, TIME, Smithsonian, NPR, Vulture, Kirkus Reviews “Riveting...Reads like a thriller, tackling a multilayered history—and imperialism—with gusto.” —Time 'A tour de force of narrative nonfiction.” —The Wall Street Journal On January 28, 1742, a ramshackle vessel of patched-together wood and cloth washed up on the coast of Brazil. Inside were thirty emaciated men, barely alive, and they had an extraordinary tale to tell. They were survivors of His Majesty’s Ship the Wager, a British vessel that had left England in 1740 on a secret mission during an imperial war with Spain. While the Wager had been chasing a Spanish treasure-filled galleon known as “the prize of all the oceans,” it had wrecked on a desolate island off the coast of Patagonia. The men, after being marooned for months and facing starvation, built the flimsy craft and sailed for more than a hundred days, traversing nearly 3,000 miles of storm-wracked seas. They were greeted as heroes. But then ... six months later, another, even more decrepit craft landed on the coast of Chile. This boat contained just three castaways, and they told a very different story. The thirty sailors who landed in Brazil were not heroes – they were mutineers. The first group responded with countercharges of their own, of a tyrannical and murderous senior officer and his henchmen.

The powerful narrative reveals the deeper meaning of the events on The Wager, showing that it was not only the captain and crew who ended up on trial, but the very idea of empire. A Best Book of the Year: The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The New Yorker, TIME, Smithsonian, NPR, Vulture, Kirkus Reviews “Riveting...Reads like a thriller, tackling a multilayered history—and imperialism—with gusto.” —Time 'A tour de force of narrative nonfiction.” —The Wall Street Journal On January 28, 1742, a ramshackle vessel of patched-together wood and cloth washed up on the coast of Brazil. Inside were thirty emaciated men, barely alive, and they had an extraordinary tale to tell. They were survivors of His Majesty’s Ship the Wager, a British vessel that had left England in 1740 on a secret mission during an imperial war with Spain. While the Wager had been chasing a Spanish treasure-filled galleon known as “the prize of all the oceans,” it had wrecked on a desolate island off the coast of Patagonia. The men, after being marooned for months and facing starvation, built the flimsy craft and sailed for more than a hundred days, traversing nearly 3,000 miles of storm-wracked seas. They were greeted as heroes. But then ... six months later, another, even more decrepit craft landed on the coast of Chile. This boat contained just three castaways, and they told a very different story. The thirty sailors who landed in Brazil were not heroes – they were mutineers. The first group responded with countercharges of their own, of a tyrannical and murderous senior officer and his henchmen. It became clear that while stranded on the island the crew had fallen into anarchy, with warring factions fighting for dominion over the barren wilderness. As accusations of treachery and murder flew, the Admiralty convened a court martial to determine who was telling the truth.

A story about friendship, love, and the price of self-delusion, The Best Minds explores the ways in which we understand—and fail to understand—mental illness. When the Rosens moved to New Rochelle in 1973, Jonathan Rosen and Michael Laudor became inseparable.

Talty delves the deepest into the history and twisted personality of David Koresh.'' —Wall Street Journal The first comprehensive account of David Koresh’s life, his road to Waco, and the rise of government mistrust in America, from a master of narrative nonfiction No other event in the last fifty years is shrouded in myth like the 1993 siege of the Branch Davidians in Waco, Texas. Today, we remember this moment for the 76 people, including 20 children, who died in the fire; for its inspiration of the Oklahoma City bombing; and for the wave of anti-government militarism that followed. What we understand far less is what motivated the Davidians’ enigmatic leader, David Koresh. Drawing on first-time, exclusive interviews with Koresh’s family and survivors of the siege, bestselling author Stephan Talty paints a psychological portrait of this infamous icon of the 1990s. Born Vernon Howell into the hyper-masculine world of central Texas in the 1960s, Koresh experienced a childhood riven with abuse and isolation. He found a new version of himself in the halls of his local church, and love in the fundamentalist sect of the Branch Davidians. Later, with a new name and professed prophetic powers, Koresh ushered in a new era for the Davidians that prized his own sexual conquest as much as his followers’ faith. As one survivor has said, “What better way for a worthless child to feel worth than to become God?” In his signature immersive storytelling, Talty reveals how Koresh’s fixation on holy war, which would deliver the Davidians to their reward and confirm himself as Christ, collided with his paranoid obsession with firearms to destructive effect. Their deadly, 51-day standoff with the embattled FBI and ATF, he shows, embodied an anti-government ethic that continues to resonate today.

The Oswald that conspiracists rarely talk about—the Oswald who was perched in the sixth floor of the Texas School Book Depository as JFK drove by—was headed for this moment of infamy years before he pulled the trigger.

In 1923 Shanghai, native and foreign travelers alike are enthralled by the establishment of a new railway line to distant Peking. With this new line comes the Peking Express, a luxurious express train on the cutting edge of China’s continental transportation. Among those drawn to the train are oil heiress Lucy Aldrich, journalist John Benjamin Powell, and vacationing Army Majors Roland Pinger and Robert Allen, wives and children in tow. These errant Americans and their eclectic fellow passengers all eagerly anticipate an idyllic overnight journey in first class. But the train’s passengers are not the only ones enchanted by the Peking Express. The bandit revolutionary Sun Mei-yao sees in it the promise of a reckoning long overdue. From his vantage in Shantung Province, a conflict-ravaged region through which the train must pass, he identifies the Peking Express as a means of commanding the global stage. By disrupting the train and taking its wealthy passengers hostage, he can draw international attention to the plight of Shantung and, he hopes, thereby secure a solution. In the first hours of May 6, 1923, Sun and his bandit troops enact their daring plan. Wrested from the pleasures of their luxury cabins, dozens of travelers including Aldrich, Powell, Pinger, and Allen are plunged into the unfamiliar Shantung terrain. Pursued by warlords and led by their captors, they must make their way to the bandits’ mountain stronghold and there await their fate. The Peking Express is the incredible, long-forgotten story of a hostage crisis that shocked China and the West.

Title: There Will Be Fire: Margaret Thatcher, the IRA, and Two Minutes That Changed History Author: Rory Carroll Narrator: John Keating Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 14 hours 6 minutes Release date: April 4, 2023 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: **A Goodreads Choice Awards Nomination for Best History & Biography** **An NPR Book We Love** A race-against-the-clock narrative that finally illuminates a history-changing event: the IRA’s attempt to assassinate Margaret Thatcher and the epic manhunt that followed.     A bomb planted by the Irish Republican Army exploded at 2:54 a.m. on October 12, 1984. It was the last day of the Conservative Party Conference at the Grand Hotel in the coastal town of Brighton, England. Rooms were obliterated, dozens of people wounded, five killed.

Title: If It Sounds Like a Quack...: A Journey to the Fringes of American Medicine Author: Matthew Hongoltz-Hetling Narrator: Jamie Renell Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 38 minutes Release date: April 4, 2023 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: A Pulitzer Prize finalist's bizarre journalistic journey through the world of fringe medicine, filled with leeches, baking soda IVs, and, according to at least one person, zombies. It's no secret that American health care has become too costly and politicized to help everyone. So where do you turn if you can't afford doctors, or don't trust them? In this book, Matthew Hongoltz-Hetling examines the growing universe of non-traditional treatments -- including some that are really non-traditional. With costs skyrocketing and anti-science sentiment spreading, the so-called "medical freedom" movement has grown. Now it faces its greatest challenge: going mainstream. In these pages you'll meet medical freedom advocates including an international leech smuggler, a gold miner-turned health drink salesman who may or may not be from the Andromeda galaxy, and a man who says he can turn people into zombies with aerosol spray. One by one, these alternative healers find customers, then expand and influence, always seeking the one thing that would take their businesses to the next level--the support and approval of the government. Should the government dictate what is medicine and what isn't? Can we have public health when disagreements over science are this profound? No, seriously, can you turn people into flesh-eating zombies? If It Sounds Like a Quack asks these critical questions while telling the story of how we got to this improbable moment, and wondering where we go from here. Buckle up for a bumpy ride...unless you're against seatbelts.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/617416Tue, 04 Apr 2023 08:43:37 +0000Dayana WestPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/617416 to listen full audiobooks.

By fifteen he was terrorizing the streets of New York's Lower East Side, scoring high marks for the 'errands' he was running for his La Cosa Nostra elders. When he turned twenty, Galante was already one of the mob's top enforcers­—a sadistic thrill killer and clinically diagnosed psychopath with big dreams: whack his way into controlling organized crime the world over, vowing to kill Mafia chieftans Tommy Lucchese and Carlo Gambino and take control of their mob families. Carmine 'Lilo' Galante's rise to Mafia star was infamous: hit man for the Luciano and Genovese crime families; named consigliere by Joseph Bonnano; he wiped out eight members of the Gambinos; on behalf of Mussolini he assassinated the publisher of an anti-Fascist newspaper. Galante helped orchestrate one of the largest heroin trafficking operations on record—a power move too dangerous for his rivals in the narcotics trade.

But perhaps the era’s greatest political fiasco—one that resulted in a nationwide scandal, a public reckoning at the Department of Justice, the rise of J. Edgar Hoover, and an Oscar-winning film—has long been lost to the annals of history. In Crooked, Nathan Masters restores this story of murderers, con artists, secret lovers, spies, bootleggers, and corrupt politicians to its full, page-turning glory. Newly elected to the Senate on a promise to root out corruption, Burton "Boxcar Burt" Wheeler sets his sights on ousting Attorney General Harry Daugherty, puppet-master behind President Harding’s unlikely rise to power. Daugherty is famous for doing whatever it takes to keep his boss in power, and his cozy relations with bootleggers and other scofflaws have long spawned rumors of impropriety. But when his constant companion and trusted fixer, Jess Smith, is found dead of a gunshot wound in the apartment the two men share, Daugherty is suddenly thrust into the spotlight, exposing the rot consuming the Harding administration to a shocked public. Determined to uncover the truth in the ensuing investigation, Wheeler takes the prosecutorial reins and subpoenas a rogue’s gallery of witnesses—convicted felons, shady detectives, disgraced officials—to expose the attorney general’s treachery and solve the riddle of Jess Smith’s suspicious death. With the muckraking senator hot on his trail, Daugherty turns to his greatest weapon, the nascent Federal Bureau of Investigation, whose eager second-in-command, J. Edgar Hoover, sees opportunity amidst the chaos. Packed with political intrigue, salacious scandal, and no shortage of lessons for our modern era of political discord, Nathan Masters’ thrilling historical narrative shows how this intricate web of inconceivable crookedness set the stage for the next century of American political scandals.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/605370Tue, 21 Mar 2023 08:43:37 +0000Dayana WestPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/605370 to listen full audiobooks.

The horror occurred in a rustic farming enclave in modern-day Hungary. To look at the unlikely lineup of murderesses—village wives, mothers, and daughters—was to come to the shocking realization that this could have happened anywhere, and to anyone. At the center of it all was a sharp-minded village midwife, a “smiling Buddha” known as Auntie Suzy, who distilled arsenic from flypaper and distributed it to the women of Nagyrév. “Why are you bothering with him?” Auntie Suzy would ask, as she produced an arsenic-filled vial from her apron pocket. In the beginning, a great many used the deadly solution to finally be free of cruel and abusive spouses. But as the number of dead bodies grew without consequence, the killers grew bolder. With each vial of poison emptied, a new reason surfaced to drain yet another. Some women disposed of sickly relatives. Some used arsenic as “inheritance powder” to secure land and houses. For more than fifteen years, the unlikely murderers aided death unfettered and tended to it as if it were simply another chore—spooning doses of arsenic into soup and wine, stirring it into coffee and brandy. By the time their crimes were discovered, hundreds were feared dead. Anonymous notes brought the crimes to light in 1929. As a skillful prosecutor hungry for justice ran the investigation, newsmen from around the world—including the New York Times—poured in to cover the dramatic events as they unfolded.

Journalist Kathleen McLaughlin knew she’d found a treatment that worked on her rare autoimmune disorder. She had no idea it had been drawn from the veins of America’s most vulnerable. So begins McLaughlin’s ten-year investigation researching and reporting on the $20-billion-a year business she found at the other end of her medication, revealing a “vampiric real-life story of modern-day greed” (Leah Sottile, host of Bundyville). Assigned to work in China, where the plasma supply had been rocked by numerous scandals, McLaughlin hid American plasma in her luggage during trips between the two countries. And when she was warned by a Chinese researcher of troubling echoes between America’s domestic plasma supply chain and the one she’d seen spin out into chaos in China, she knew she had to dig deeper. Blood Money shares McLaughlin’s decade-long mission to learn the full story of where her medicine comes from. She travels the United States in search of the truth about human blood plasma and learns that twenty million Americans each year sell their plasma for profit—a human-derived commodity extracted inside our borders to be processed and packaged for retail across the globe. She investigates the thin evidence pharmaceutical companies have used to push plasma as a wonder drug for everything from COVID-19 to wrinkled skin. And she unearths an American economic crisis hidden in plain sight: single mothers, college students, laid-off Rust Belt auto workers, and a booming blood market at America’s southern border, where collection agencies target Mexican citizens willing to cross over and sell their plasma for substandard pay. This “captivating and anguished exposé” (Publishers Weekly) weaves together McLaughlin’s personal battle to overcome illness while also facing her own complicity in this wheel of exploitation with an electrifying portrait of big business run amok.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/618314Tue, 28 Feb 2023 08:43:37 +0000Dayana WestPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/618314 to listen full audiobooks.

Journalist Kathleen McLaughlin knew she’d found a treatment that worked on her rare autoimmune disorder. She had no idea it had been drawn from the veins of America’s most vulnerable. So begins McLaughlin’s ten-year investigation researching and reporting on the $20-billion-a year business she found at the other end of her medication, revealing a “vampiric real-life story of modern-day greed” (Leah Sottile, host of Bundyville). Assigned to work in China, where the plasma supply had been rocked by numerous scandals, McLaughlin hid American plasma in her luggage during trips between the two countries.

But with the 2019 season came a force louder than Formula One could dream of muffling: William Storey, the founder of British energy drink startup Rich Energy. Storey became a multimillion-dollar sponsor of the Haas Formula One team a year after records showed Rich Energy having a mere $770 in the bank. He equated his doubters to moon-landing truthers and publicly mocked both the Haas team and the entities winning legal disputes against him. But where were actual cans of Rich Energy, and did the supposed sponsorship funds exist? In the six months between Storey's first race as a Formula One sponsor and his very public exit, he stole the spotlight with a loud mouth and an active Twitter account. Haas team boss Guenther Steiner once described the Rich Energy news cycle as: 'I'm getting sick of answering these stupid fucking questions on a race weekend.

Josélio cut a grisly path to success: having arrived in the jungle with a shady past, he quickly made a name for himself as an invincible thug who grabbed massive tracts of public land, burned down the jungle and executed or enslaved anyone trying to stop him. Enter Dezinho, the leader of a small but robust farm workers' union fighting against land grabs, ecological destruction, and blatant human rights abuses. When Dezinho was killed in a shocking assassination, the local community held its breath. Would Josélio, whom everyone knew had ordered the hit, finally be brought to account? Or would authorities look the other way, as they had hundreds of times before? Dezinho's widow, Dona Joelma, was not about to let that happen. After his murder, she stepped into the spotlight, orchestrating a huge push to bring national media attention to the injustices in the Amazon. Set against the backdrop of Bolsonaro's devastating cuts to environmental protections, Brazil's rapidly changing place in the geopolitical spectrum, and the Amazon's crucial role in climate change, Masters of the Lost Land is both a gripping epic into one of the last wild places on Earth and an urgent illustration of how people are fighting for – and winning – justice for their futures and the environment.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/646109Thu, 09 Feb 2023 08:43:37 +0000Dayana WestPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/646109 to listen full audiobooks.

In July 1985, the discovery of Fr Niall Molloy's badly beaten body in the bedroom of his close friends and business associates, Richard and Therese Flynn, was the stuff of soap operas, not of a small rural village in the Irish midlands. The gentle-natured cleric came to a violent and bloody end during a weekend of extravagant wedding celebrations at the Flynn stately home, Kilcoursey House. For decades, the events of that tragic night fuelled rife speculation and gossip, as well as allegations of a cover-up by the State and Church, and today his death remains unsolved and shrouded in mystery. From an extraordinary criminal trial and acquittal, which conflicted with a subsequent inquest verdict, to a botched investigation and questions over motive, the savage beating of Fr Niall Molloy continues to beg more questions than answers. Anatomy of an Injustice - The Killing of Fr Niall Molloy builds on fresh revelations unveiled in a recent two-part TV documentary for RTE, ‘The killing of Fr Niall Molloy', to detail and document the whole story before and after that fateful summer Sunday. In this new book, TV documentary producer, Sharon Lawless of Flawless Films, and Maresa Fagan, a journalist of 20 years standing, delve further into the case to test evidence, old and new, and follow the money trail. It forensically analyses all available facts and testimony given at the 1986 trial and inquest and also hears from criminal and medical experts about how Fr Molloy died and about what really might have occurred that night. This story of significant public interest also sheds light on the many injustices in the case and how the Molloy family were let down by the State and criminal justice system.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/646102Thu, 09 Feb 2023 08:43:37 +0000Dayana WestPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/646102 to listen full audiobooks.

This story of significant public interest also sheds light on the many injustices in the case and how the Molloy family were let down by the State and criminal justice system.]]>185cleanfullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/i-know-who-you-are-how-an-amateur-dna-sleuth-unmasked-the-golden-state-killer-and-changed-crime-fighting-forever-by-barbara-rae-venter--65274281https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/604295 to listen full audiobooks. Title: I Know Who You Are: How an Amateur DNA Sleuth Unmasked the Golden State Killer and Changed Crime Fighting Forever Author: Barbara Rae-Venter Narrator: Barbara Rae-Venter Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 23 minutes Release date: February 7, 2023 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4.5 of Total 4 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: EDGAR AWARD FINALIST • “A true-crime masterpiece written by a cold-case-cracking master.”—John Douglas, New York Times bestselling co-author of Mindhunter “Barbara Rae-Venter isn’t just the genealogy expert who helped capture the Golden State Killer—she’s an unsung hero who has given murdered women and children their faces and names back.”—Maureen Callahan, New York Times bestselling author of American Predator “Echoes the dedication displayed by such fictional police detectives as California novelist Michael Connelly’s Harry Bosch.”—The Wall Street Journal   For twelve years the Golden State Killer terrorized California, stalking victims and killing without remorse. Then he simply disappeared, for the next forty-four years, until an amateur DNA sleuth opened her laptop. In I Know Who You Are, Barbara Rae-Venter reveals how she went from researching her family history as a retiree to hunting for a notorious serial killer—and how she became the nation’s leading authority on investigative genetic genealogy, the most dazzling new crime-fighting weapon to appear in decades.   Rae-Venter shares haunting, often thrilling accounts of how she helped solve some of America’s most chilling cold cases in the span of just three years, frequently starting with little more than a DNA sample. She brings readers inside her unique “grasshopper mind” as she pores through obituaries, marriage records, and old newspaper articles. Readers join in on urgent calls with sheriffs, FBI agents, and district attorneys as she details the struggle to obtain usable crime scene DNA samples, until, finally, a critical piece of the puzzle clicks into place. I Know Who You Are captures both the exhilaration of these discoveries and the deep-rooted emotions that linger around cold cases. It is a story of relentless curiosity and reinvention, and of human beings striving to answer the most elemental questions about themselves: What defines identity? Where do we belong? And are we truly who we think we are?]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/604295Tue, 07 Feb 2023 08:43:37 +0000Dayana WestPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/604295 to listen full audiobooks.

It was heaven on earth—and, some whispered, the devil’s garden. Thousands came by trains and carriages to see this new Eden, carved from hundreds of acres of wild woodland. They marveled at orchards bursting with fruit, thick herds of Ayrshire cattle and Cotswold sheep, and whizzing mills. They gaped at the people who lived in this place—especially the women, with their queer cropped hair and shamelessly short skirts. The men and women of this strange outpost worked and slept together—without sin, they claimed. From 1848 to 1881, a small utopian colony in upstate New York—the Oneida Community—was known for its shocking sexual practices, from open marriage and free love to the sexual training of young boys by older women. And in 1881, a one-time member of the Oneida Community—Charles Julius Guiteau—assassinated President James Garfield in a brutal crime that shook America to its core. An Assassin in Utopia is the first book that weaves together these explosive stories in a tale of utopian experiments, political machinations, and murder. This deeply researched narrative—by bestselling author Susan Wels—tells the true, interlocking stories of the Oneida Community and its radical founder, John Humphrey Noyes; his idol, the eccentric newspaper publisher Horace Greeley, founder of the New Yorker and the New York Tribune; and the gloomy, indecisive President James Garfield—who was assassinated after his first six months in office.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/628895Tue, 07 Feb 2023 08:43:37 +0000Dayana WestPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/628895 to listen full audiobooks.

When taxi driver Christopher Halliwell was arrested, Detective Superintendent Stephen Fulcher didn't expect what happened next. After the body of another missing girl, Becky Godden-Edwards, was uncovered, the police had two murders on their hands and one suspect, but how many more unsolved murders could Christopher Halliwell be responsible for? The hidden cache of around sixty pieces of women's clothing and accessories that he led police to suggests that the number could be much higher than the two murders he has been convicted of. In The New Millennium Serial Killer, former police intelligence officer Chris Clark and true crime podcast host Bethan Trueman use their in-depth research to present a comprehensive study into convicted killer Christopher Halliwell. With a foreword by former Detective Superintendent Stephen Fulcher, this book presents a fascinating account of this cruel killer and tells the heartbreaking stories of over twenty women whose cases remain unsolved today, seeking to find justice for their loved ones who are still waiting for answers.

Two years before 9/11, the United States was attacked by an unknown enemy. No advance warning was given, and it didn't target civilians. Instead, tomahawk missiles started missing their targets, US agents were swept up by hostile governments, and America’s enemies seemed to know its every move in advance. A new phase of warfare—cyber war—had arrived. And within two decades it escaped Pandora's Box, plunging us into a state of total war where every day, countless cyber attacks perpetrated by states and mercenaries are reshaping the world. After receiving an anonymous email with leaked NATO battle plans during the bombardment of Kosovo, journalist Matt Potter embarked on a twenty-year investigation into the origins of cyber war and how it came to dominate the world. He uncovered its beginnings – worthy of a Bond movie – in the last days of the Cold War, as the US and its allies empowered a generation of Eastern European hackers, only to wake up in the late 90s to a new world order. It's a story that winds through Balkan hacking culture, Russia, Silicon Valley, and the Pentagon, introducing us to characters like a celebrity hacker with missing fingers who keeps escaping prison, FBI agents chasing the first generation of cyber mercenaries in the 90s, tech CEOs, and Russian generals obsessed with a Cold War rematch. Never before told, this is the riveting secret history of cyberwar not as governments want it to be – controlled, military-directed, discreet, and sophisticated – but as it really is: anarchic, chaotic, dangerous, and often thrilling.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/589885Tue, 10 Jan 2023 08:43:37 +0000Dayana WestPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/589885 to listen full audiobooks.

No municipality has been under court oversight to reform its police department as long as the city of Oakland. It is, quite simply, the edge case in American law enforcement. The Riders Come Out at Night is the culmination of over twenty-one years of fearless reporting. Ali Winston and Darwin BondGraham shine a light on the jackbooted and sadistic cops known as “The Riders,” and the lack of political will and misguided leadership that have conspired to stymie meaningful reform. The authors trace the history of Oakland since its inception through the lens of the city’s police department, through the Palmer Raids, McCarthyism, and the Civil Rights struggle, the Black Panthers and crack eras, to Oakland’s present-day revival. Those who have fought for reform are also revealed, including Keith Batt, a wide-eyed rookie cop turned whistleblower, who was unwittingly partnered with the leader of the Riders, and Jim Chanin and John Burris, two dedicated civil rights attorneys. Meanwhile, Oakland’s deep history of law enforcement corruption, reactionary politics, and social movement organizing is retold through historical figures like Black Panther Huey Newton, drug kingpin Felix Mitchell, district attorney and future Supreme Court Justice Earl Warren, and Mayor Jerry Brown. “As thrilling as the best noir fiction” (Whiting Foundation, 2021 Creative Nonfiction Grant Jury), The Riders Come Out at Night is the story of one city and its police department, but it’s also the story of American policing—and where it’s headed.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/601037Tue, 10 Jan 2023 08:43:37 +0000Dayana WestPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/601037 to listen full audiobooks.

Meanwhile, Oakland’s deep history of law enforcement corruption, reactionary politics, and social movement organizing is retold through historical figures like Black Panther Huey Newton, drug kingpin Felix Mitchell, district attorney and future Supreme Court Justice Earl Warren, and Mayor Jerry Brown. “As thrilling as the best noir fiction” (Whiting Foundation, 2021 Creative Nonfiction Grant Jury), The Riders Come Out at Night is the story of one city and its police department, but it’s also the story of American policing—and where it’s headed.]]>185cleanfullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/boston-tabloid-the-killing-of-robin-benedict-by-don-stradley--65274299https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/622888 to listen full audiobooks. Title: Boston Tabloid: The Killing of Robin Benedict Author: Don Stradley Narrator: Patrick Lawlor Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 14 minutes Release date: January 10, 2023 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: The disappearance of a twenty-one-year-old woman from a Massachusetts suburb became one of the most discussed crimes of the twentieth century. The discussion intensified when the public learned that Robin Benedict worked as a prostitute in Boston’s notorious red-light district, the “Combat Zone,” and was linked by a trail of blood to a famous professor from Tufts University. When Robin Benedict vanished, the investigation and media circus that gripped the city of Boston hadn’t been seen since the days of the Boston Strangler case. On a Sunday morning in March 1983, a small-time pimp walked into a police station and claimed his girlfriend was missing. He said she had been on her way to visit a client named William Douglas. In the year that followed, the case drew in detectives, state troopers, scores of journalists, and even psychics. But Robin was never found. Boston Tabloid reconstructs a grisly murder and explores one man’s bizarre obsession. In revisiting this legendary crime, Don Stradley consulted journalists involved in the media frenzy, prison authorities, arresting officers, and psychiatrists, all in an effort to unravel a most tangled story. Why was the city, and the nation, swept up in this sordid tale? It remains a grim and fascinating moment in Boston’s history.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/622888Tue, 10 Jan 2023 08:43:37 +0000Dayana WestPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/622888 to listen full audiobooks.

Title: [Spanish] - Crímenes sorprendentes en el Vaticano Author: Ricardo Canaletti Narrator: Juan Manuel Abraham Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 15 hours 44 minutes Release date: January 5, 2023 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: La Iglesia católica habría querido que estos crímenes permanecieran ocultos o que se olvidasen. Pero en los suntuosos salones y frente al altar de la Basílica de San Pedro también se mintió, también se robó, también se mató. Desde el emperador Constantino hasta el papa Francisco, la Iglesia católica ocultó asesinatos, estafas y sucesos desopilantes. En este libro, Ricardo Canaletti reconstruye los hechos y los narra con el estilo inconfundible y la pasión que lo convirtieron en el periodista de casos criminales más leído de la Argentina. Canaletti esta vez recorre Alejandría, Constantinopla, Cirene, Atenas, Lombardía y Roma; consigue fuentes, archivos históricos y se remonta a la Antigüedad, pero también se mete con escándalos contemporáneos. A la filósofa Hipatia, una mujer culta e independiente, la lincharon los fanáticos instigados por el poder eclesiástico. Otra mujer se sentó en el trono de Pedro y años después parió en plena procesión. Hubo un papa al que llamaban 'Satanás' y otro que había sido pirata. Durante la 'pornocracia', los asuntos se resolvían con favores sexuales. Los papas eran padres de papas. Se torturó hasta la muerte para no pagar deudas. Un sumo pontífice estranguló a otro, y hubo uno más que llevó a juicio al cadáver de su antecesor. En estas páginas están los 'banquetes de las castañas' que organizaba el papa Borgia. Asoman Maquiavelo, Leonardo da Vinci, Giordano Bruno. Y se busca saber qué hay detrás de la repentina y jamás investigada muerte de Juan Pablo I, que se había enfrentado a la masonería y a la corrupción demostrada con la caída del Banco Ambrosiano; y también de la desaparición -aún impune- de la jovencita Emanuela Orlandi, que une el atentado de Juan Pablo II con los servicios de inteligencia y las tumbas compradas por la delincuencia. Crímenes sorprendentes en el Vaticano demuestra en cada caso que al demonio le sientan muy bien los lugares sagrados.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/651448Thu, 05 Jan 2023 08:43:37 +0000Dayana WestPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/651448 to listen full audiobooks.

Title: I Did It: The Largest Woman-Run Ponzi Scheme in American History Author: Gina Champion-Cain, Barbara Bry, Neil Senturia Narrator: Barbara Bry, Neil Senturia Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 50 minutes Release date: January 3, 2023 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: I Did It is the story of Gina Champion-Cain, the mastermind behind the largest woman-led Ponzi scheme in US history—$400 million. This real-life story includes a multitude of participants, banks, hedge funds, egomaniacs, and small-time crooks, all fueled by greed, stupidity, and a keen desire to look the other way. And even when they were looking in the right direction, all of these people and entities saw nothing. Gina was the Penn and Teller of misdirection, acting with caring behavior to other people (while bilking her investors), creating philanthropic endeavors and single-mindedly pursuing her dream of building an empire, taking it public, and cashing out all the investors. In August 2019, Gina’s seven-year program of selling phony liquor license loans came to an end when the SEC, the US Attorney’s Office, and the FBI filed suit and shut it down. In San Diego, Gina, then fifty-four, was an icon. To the outside world, this beautiful, charismatic woman looked as if she had succeeded in a male-dominated good-old-boys club—building an empire that included real estate, restaurants, and retail; she was a guest economics commentator for the San Diego Union-Tribune; and she served on prestigious corporate and nonprofit boards. The City of San Diego even honored her with her own Gina Champion-Cain Day. She cooked dinner for her husband, Steve, walked the dogs on the beach, and was a role model for young women.

Title: Code Name Blue Wren: The True Story of America's Most Dangerous Female Spy—and the Sister She Betrayed Author: Jim Popkin Narrator: Jim Popkin Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 24 minutes Release date: January 3, 2023 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 3 of Total 1 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: The incredible true story of Ana Montes, the most damaging female spy in US history, drawing upon never-before-seen material and to be published upon her release from prison, for readers of Agent Sonya and A Woman of No Importance. Just days after the 9-11 attacks, a senior Pentagon analyst eased her red Toyota Echo into traffic and headed to work. She never saw the undercover cars tracking her every turn. As she settled into her cubicle on the 6th floor of the Defense Intelligence Agency in Washington, FBI Agents and twitchy DIA officers were hiding in nearby offices. For this was the day that Ana Montes--the US Intelligence Community superstar who had just won a prestigious fellowship at the CIA--was to be arrested and publicly exposed as a secret agent for Cuba. Like spies Aldrich Ames and Robert Hanssen before her, Ana Montes blindsided her colleagues with brazen acts of treason. For nearly 17 years, Montes succeeded in two high-stress jobs. By day, she was one of the government’s top Cuba experts, a buttoned-down GS-14 with shockingly easy access to classified documents. By night, she was on the clock for Fidel Castro, listening to coded messages over shortwave radio, passing US secrets to handlers in local restaurants, and slipping into Havana wearing a wig.  Montes didn’t just deceive her country. Her betrayal was intensely personal. Her mercurial father was a former US Army Colonel. Her brother and sister-in-law were FBI Special Agents. And her only sister, Lucy, also worked her entire career for the Bureau. The highlight of her distinguished 31 years as a Miami-based language specialist: Helping the FBI flush Cuban spies out of the United States. Little did Lucy or her family know that the greatest Cuban spy of all was sitting right next to them at Thanksgivings, baptisms, and weddings. In Code Name Blue Wren, investigative journalist Jim Popkin weaves the tale of two sisters who chose two very different paths, plus the unsung heroes who had to fight to bring Ana to justice. With exclusive access to a “Secret” CIA behavioral profile of Ana, family memoirs, and Ana’s incriminating letters from prison, Popkin reveals the making of a traitor—a woman labelled “one of the most damaging spies in U.S. history” by America’s top counter-intelligence official. After more than two decades in federal prison, Montes will be freed in January 2023. Code Name Blue Wren is a thrilling detective tale, an insider’s look at the clandestine world of espionage, and an intimate exploration of the dark side of betrayal.

From the Introduction: In writing George Hill Hodel: “The Early Years,” my original intent was to present all my father’s suspected crimes from the 1920s and 1930s in one edition. I have found this is simply not possible as it would require a book that would dwarf Dostoevsky’s nearly seven-hundred-page opus, Crime and Punishment. Therefore, I will present “The Early Years” in two parts, two editions. This edition is Part II and presents my investigations of his suspected crimes in the 1930s. Note that I said, “suspected crimes.” I want to be crystal clear on this point. My two-part, “Early Years” investigations are just that—a search out of for the truth. …In the presentation of these crimes from the long ago (the first one goes back one hundred years), I make no claim to a “solution.” I am not saying that my father, George Hill Hodel, committed any of these crimes, beyond a “Reasonable Doubt”—which would be the legal requirement to find him guilty. Several of these crimes, without the introduction of hard physical evidence, or DNA, are not solvable. Others have been claimed “solved” by law enforcement and are considered “Case Closed.”…To be clear. These crimes from the Twenties and Thirties did not present themselves to me post-Black Dahlia Avenger published in 2003. I was aware of them and his possible involvement in them as early as the year 2000, a full three years before I presented my father to the world as the killer of Elizabeth “Black Dahlia” Short and the other LA Lone Woman Murders.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/653014Sun, 01 Jan 2023 08:43:37 +0000Dayana WestPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/653014 to listen full audiobooks.

Title: [Spanish] - El siglo de las drogas (nueva edición) Author: Luis Astorga Narrator: Beto Moreno Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 33 minutes Release date: December 29, 2022 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: A veinte años de su publicación original, la pertinencia de este libro no puede ser mayor: el negocio de las drogas ilegalizadas se encuentra en todos lados. Una nueva edición de una investigación clásica acerca los fármacos prohibidos y la historia de sus usos, las percepciones y las relaciones con los diferentes agentes sociales, desde la época porfiriana hasta nuestros días. Su autor, Luis Astorga, prestigiado investigador y analista del tema, critica de forma abierta la manera prejuiciosa y desinformada de abordarlo, y plantea posibles escenarios del futuro. A veinte años de la publicación de El siglo de las drogas, su pertinencia no puede ser mayor. Las menciones sobre el negocio de las drogas ilegalizadas abundan en la prensa: las disputas entre miembros de organizaciones criminales, la alarmante situación de las cárceles, las acciones violentas de sicarios y la reestructuración de los territorios de venta de sustancias psicoactivas ilícitas. El panorama sigue siendo complicado. Los políticos insisten en que el crimen organizado amenaza la seguridad nacional, aunque a muchos de ellos les conviene su fortalecimiento. Los institutos contra las adicciones se ven limitados por la falta de recursos, y el ciudadano común padece la falta de información de primera mano. La 'guerra contra las drogas' se puede volver una guerra interminable porque delincuencia y poder político han estado unidos históricamente, pero también porque la concepción que se tiene del fenómeno de la venta y el consumo varía de acuerdo con la época donde se ubica. Nuestra visión de drogas como la mariguana, la cocaína y las derivadas del opio cambia al mismo tiempo que nuestra realidad. En este contexto, Luis Astorga presenta un recorrido histórico que va desde el Porfiriato hasta la actualidad sobre los usos, las percepciones y el tráfico de esas sustancias y presenta interrogantes sobre los posibles escenarios del futuro: si la guerra está perdida de antemano, ¿sólo nos queda su legalización?]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/653556Thu, 29 Dec 2022 08:43:37 +0000Dayana WestPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/653556 to listen full audiobooks.

If the waterfront was infested with German and Italian agents then the US Navy needed a recourse just as insidious to secure it. Naval intelligence officer Commander Charles Radcliffe Haffenden had the solution: recruit as his own spies, members of La Cosa Nostra. Pier to pier, no one terrified the longshoremen, stevedores, shopkeepers, and boat captains along the harbor better than the Mafia gangs of New York, who controlled the docks in Manhattan and Brooklyn. Haffenden was prepared to make a deal with the devil–the man who put 'organized' into organized crime. Even from his cell in Dannemora State Prison, former Public Enemy #1, Charles 'Lucky' Luciano still had tremendous power. Luciano was willing to wield it for Haffenden. But he wanted something in return—Luciano's contacts in Italy to track the Nazis' movements.

The weather was mild for late March in Kansas City; the sky was clear, and there was the pale remnant of a Full Moon that bore the dubious name of Death Moon, the last full moon of winter. A little before 7 A.M., fifteen-year-old Ann Harrison walked to the end of her driveway on Kansas City's east side to wait for the bus to take her to Raytown South High School. Ten minutes later, she disappeared but no one saw what happened. As if waiting for her return, her belongings were still stacked carefully by the side of the road. By the Side of the Road is the true crime story of the kidnapping, rape, and murder of Ann Harrison and the long journey forced upon her family who had to wait nearly three decades to see her killers brought to final justice.

Hallinan Narrator: Steve Marvel Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 21 minutes Release date: December 20, 2022 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: From his hardscrabble NYC upbringing, through the NYPD ranks, to command of America's first ever joint task force on terrorism alongside the FBI, Kevin M. Hallinan lived a lot of history. From beat cop to detective, Hallinan maneuvered through some of America's most volatile decades and saw from the inside the tenuous gray line between law and order. Early in his career, Hallinan became embroiled in deadly mob cases, which pulled him under the scrutiny of the feared and historic Knapp Commission on police corruption. In extreme danger and under pressure, he persevered and kept his integrity intact. Higher-ups took notice and brought him into the chief of detectives' office where he helped reorganize robbery squads and create innovative and responsive new police initiatives. One such effort helped bring awareness and sensitivity to sexual assault investigations and contributed to the creation of the revolutionary Special Victims Unit. And that was only the beginning. His fascinating inside look at a life in law enforcement spans layers of history, explores evolutions in national security, and features game-changing heroes and eye-opening innovations. Kevin M.

For two decades, Imbriale was a street-level operative in one of the most violent crews in the Colombo Family. Now in hiding, Imbriale teams up with true-crime veteran writer Craig McGuire to take you inside the Thirteenth Avenue rackets at the height of their violence. This is the jarring account of his lawless lifestyle culminating in a gang war in South Brooklyn, from which he emerges a survivor. From his first arrest at fifteen for robbing a Coney Island pimp to surviving multiple assassination attempts, Imbriale offers up dozens of too-good-to-be-true tales featuring some of the most notorious gangsters, as well as other lions and lackeys of La Cosa Nostra, and details a beef with none other than Greg 'The Grim Reaper' Scarpa Sr. A young streetwise hustler, Imbriale thought he found loyalty, a brotherhood. Instead, he descended into a world of treachery and deceit, where your best friend is your executioner, and no one gets out alive. But no one expected him to become the domino that helped bring it all down.

Australia's most prolific serial sexual killers met in prison. They were a complete contrast: Christopher Worrell, the charismatic psychopathic youngster; and James Miller, the older and socially awkward loner. For Miller, it was love at first sight. They developed an ominous sexual bond – proving that opposites can attract – and then kill. Once free, the inseparable tag team slayed as many people as notorious Australian serial killer Ivan Milat. Whereas Milat took a year to murder seven victims, the duo achieved the same in seven short weeks … the last four killed in only six days. The frenzied carnage only stopped when Worrell died in a car accident. So ended the life of Australia's own BTK. Like America's Dennis Radar, Worrell bound, tortured and killed – because he could.

Sometimes questions remain: was it an accident, suicide, or something more sinister? An elderly couple having an illicit affair disappear into the bush, their campsite destroyed by fire but their vehicle untouched. Who are the mysterious 'Hill People' and does a missing drone hold the key to the mystery? A skydiver plunges to his death and investigators soon discover his parachute had been tampered with. But with a hundred potential murder weapons and just as many suspects who are used to the adrenaline rush of a high-stakes sport, can anyone uncover who did it? A young mother heads out for a night on the town to celebrate her new car and never comes home. Her text messages and car tracking system tell a story right up to the moment she disappears. Did she disconnect the GPS herself or was someone in the car with her? An entire town is wary of a hard-living man, and none more so than his battered wife.

Title: The Shadow of Death: The Hunt for the Connecticut River Valley Killer Author: Philip E. Ginsburg Narrator: Stephen Bowlby Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 15 hours 53 minutes Release date: November 29, 2022 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: In the mid-1980s, someone stabbed six women to death in the Connecticut River Valley on the border between New Hampshire and Vermont. The murderer remains at large and the total number of his victims is unknown. In this brilliant work of true crime reportage, New York Times–bestselling author Philip E. Ginsburg provides fascinating insights into the groundbreaking forensic methods used to track the killer and paints indelible portraits of the lives he cut so tragically short. The Shadow of Death recreates the fear that consumed the idyllic region when young women began to disappear with horrifying regularity. Friends and family of the victims were left to endure the bottomless pain of imagining their loved ones' terrifying last moments. Desperate to stop the slayings, local police and FBI investigators used exotic new techniques to try to unmask the murderer. Ginsburg documents the extraordinary efforts of psychologist John Philpin as he risks his own emotional stability to get inside the mind of a madman. Law enforcement officials identified several suspects and came tantalizingly close to putting all the pieces of the puzzle together, but it was only after a pregnant woman survived a brutal attack that the killings appeared to stop. The question remains: Could they start again?]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/620821Tue, 29 Nov 2022 08:43:37 +0000Dayana WestPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/620821 to listen full audiobooks.

There it was, inches away from me on a hotel table. Not in conventional currency, but in the world's deadliest commodity. Heroin.' As part of Scotland Yard's undercover team, it was Peter Bleksley's job to infiltrate some of the capital's most dangerous gangs and bring them down. For ten years, he went deeper into the criminal underworld than any cop had before him. Meeting with dealers, gangland leaders and members of the IRA and the Mafia, he lived the life of the Great Pretender, constantly changing his identity to ensure his cover was never blown. Whilst undeniably thrilling work at times, it came at a heavy price. The more successful he was at bringing criminals to justice, the longer the list of those who wanted revenge became. Even now, Peter looks over his shoulder in case someone should wish to act on an old threat. In The Gangbuster, Bleksley draws us into the world of drugs, violence and covert operations he inhabited for so long in the pursuit of justice.

All these years later, the question remains: why? Who would wish to kill this respectable husband and family man in such a brutal fashion? Was it simply a tragic case of mistaken identity, or did someone have reason to end Alistair's life? And what was the significance of the envelope handed to him before he was fatally wounded? Over the years, lines of enquiry have been investigated and dismissed, gossip has spread, theories offered and rumours debated at length. And yet, so long after Alistair's death, no arrest has ever been made and precious few motives have been made public. In this gripping true crime investigation, Peter Bleksley, top ex-undercover cop and The Chief on Channel 4's Hunted, strives to uncover the truth and hunt down Alistair's killer.

Title: The Columbus Stocking Strangler Author: William Rawlings Narrator: James Edward Thomas Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 23 minutes Release date: November 18, 2022 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: During an eight-month period in 1977 and 1978, the city of Columbus, Georgia, was terrorized by a mysterious serial killer who raped and ritualistically strangled seven elderly women in one of the community's finer neighborhoods. Despite intensive efforts on the part of police the Stocking Strangler, as he came to be known, managed to elude capture. After the last murder in April 1978, the case went cold.   In the spring of 1984, a series of fortuitous events connected to an unrelated murder and a stolen pistol led to the capture of Carlton Gary, who had recently escaped from a South Carolina prison. Following a dramatic trial in August 1986, Gary was convicted of three of the seven Columbus murders and sentenced to death, a penalty that would not be carried out until March 2018.   This convoluted tale of crime and punishment is punctuated by dramatic and unexpected twists and turns including issues of race, alleged conspiracy and misconduct on the part of the police and the judiciary, a second serial killer active in Columbus during the time of the Strangler murders, the Ku Klux Klan, errors in DNA analysis, and a vigorous and prolonged struggle by attorneys and death penalty opponents who believed in Gary's innocence.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/646482Fri, 18 Nov 2022 08:43:37 +0000Dayana WestPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/646482 to listen full audiobooks.

It is, in some ways, the story of all workingmen and women with ambition who never achieve their ultimate goal. But what makes Luigi unique is that, for him to achieve his goal, people had to die. His ambition, from when he was twelve years old, was to be a made man in the Mafia. He once told a presidential commission, 'American child falls in love with baseball, I fall in love with Mafia.' Coauthor Michael Vecchione spent months interviewing the hitman about his life in the Sicilian and American Mafia, finally becoming his confidant. Those days, weeks, and months together brought Luigi to realize that, despite the concept of omertà—the code of silence ingrained in him from an early age—the road to a truly honorable life meant turning on those he once admired. Luigi had done everything asked of him by his Mafia bosses. This included the murder of thirteen people. But unlike other hitmen, Luigi was denied the Mafia recognition he felt he deserved. Drawing on personal files, handwritten notes, and official sources, this book attempts to explain his complicated life.

Title: [Spanish] - Crímenes. Diez casos reales (Crímenes 2) Series: #2 of Crímenes Author: Carles Porta Narrator: Aleix Peña Miralles Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 46 minutes Release date: November 3, 2022 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 1 Ratings of Narrator: 5 of Total 1 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: *****INCREÍBLEMENTE REAL***** El periodismo literario de Carles Porta sigue la estela de Ferdinand von Schirach y Patrick Radden Keefe. Carles Porta probablemente sea uno de nuestros mejores periodistas, pero sin duda se ha coronado, con sus libros, podcasts y series televisivas, como un magistral narrador de relatos reales. En este volumen, que recoge diez de los casos más impactantes de la crónica negra reciente, descubriremos su especialidad literaria: contarnos extraordinarias historias de crimen y trabajo policial mientras nos mantiene en vilo hasta la última línea. La fórmula puede parecer sencilla, pero él la convierte en inimitable gracias al tratamiento riguroso que hace de los grandes personajes que escoge y la manera en que los sabe envolver en tramas tan potentes como verídicas. Aquí encontraremos, entre otros: el caso de Amaia Azkue, la vecina de Zarautz cuyo asesino fue identificado por un detalle trivial; la estremecedora desaparición de los hermanos Òrrit en el hospital de Manresa y la búsqueda que ha llevado a cabo durante décadas su numerosa familia; el asesinato a sangre fría de un hombre en Madrid a causa de un macabro juego de rol; o el sangriento robo que cometió una mujer en Fargo, Dakota del Norte, contra su propia vecina. La crítica ha dicho: «El rey de la crónica negra en España.» El Mundo «Un maestro de relatar crónica negra.» Lídia Penelo, Público «Un profundo ejercicio de depuración de estilo.» ABC «Periodismo en profundidad, y próximo.» La Vanguardia «Combina el rigor y el entretenimiento sin caer en la tentación del morbo ni tampoco rehuir los anzuelos para propulsar la lectura.» El País La crítica ha dicho sobre La farmacéutica: «Se lee todo del tirón y uno no da crédito a que sucediera de verdad. [...] Crónica definitiva de aquel secuestro, es un libro de lectura muy dinámica.» El Mundo «Lo que realmente le gusta a Porta es contar buenas historias. [...] La última es un clásico de 1992, tiene como protagonista a una farmacéutica y la cuenta en un gran libro.» La Vanguardia «Un solo hilo narrativo que combina la vivacidad, el drama y la ironía, además de evidenciar la grandeza y, a su vez, la miseria humana. [...] Sin duda, con esta crónica, Porta se consagra, según los expertos del género, como un maestro del periodismo narrativo.» NacióDigital «Este libro pone orden y claridad a los acontecimientos: Porta narra con dinamismoy rellena todos los agujeros con tal de revertir los malentendidos que circulan en la esfera pública.» El País «Una crónica trepidante.» ABC «Una especie de Fargo en la Garrotxa.» Diari de Girona]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/634565Thu, 03 Nov 2022 08:43:37 +0000Dayana WestPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/634565 to listen full audiobooks.

Más de una decena de mujeres es asesinada a diario en México. Y con cada muerte se abre una herida profunda en sus familias que nunca cierra ni deja de doler. ¿Por qué se mata a las mujeres en este país? ¿Cómo viven las familias después de esta tragedia? Saskia Niño de Rivera ofrece en este libro de testimonios y revelaciones sin precedentes las respuestas y las explicaciones para entender desde lo más hondo este delito y el purgatorio que desencadena. A partir de las confesiones de agresores de mujeres y feminicidas, podemos saber de forma directa las causas y contextos de estas muertes, cómo fue la infancia de los perpetradores, quién los educó, en qué momento la violencia que soportaron se convirtió en estigma. Y, en consecuencia, qué suplicio viven las madres de las mujeres violentadas, por qué el duelo se agudiza cuando empiezanlas investigaciones y se enfrentan a la insensibilidad de juezas, ministerios públicos, policías, funcionarias o abogados: ¿por qué como sociedad nos hemos vuelto tan indiferentes? Maldita entre todas las mujeres es una obra terrible y enternecedora que ahonda en las vidas de los criminales y las acciones de quienes buscan la justicia para sus hijas, madres o hermanas muertas.

The case was dubbed the “trial of the decade” and would coincide with the explosion of social media and a new era of trying cases in public as much as the courtroom. While Italian prosecutors, the press, and online lynch mobs convicted Knox in the court of public opinion, Bremner would draw upon her decades in the courtroom and in front of the camera to turn the tide with a new kind of defense in pursuit of justice. Bremner takes us inside some of the biggest cases of recent times and offers her expert insights and analysis as our legal system faces unprecedented forces fighting to tip the scales of justice their way. Why couldn’t prosecutors convict O.J. Simpson despite all of the evidence seemingly proving he killed his wife Nicole? Could a jury remain unbiased in the face of overwhelming public pressure in the trial of Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin for the murder of George Floyd?

Justice in the Age of Judgement is Bremner’s unparalleled and unflinching look at the captivating cases tried on Twitter and TV, where the burden of proof and fundamental legal tenet of “innocent until proven guilty” is under assault from the court of public opinion.]]>185cleanfullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/german-ich-sollte-der-nachste-sein-ungekurzt-by-leoluca-orlando--65274211https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/645741 to listen full audiobooks.

First as a British ‘spook’ during the Cold War, then as a world-renowned writer of espionage fiction, but also in his personal involvements. He guarded his private life with fierce determination, so that even when he finally permitted his life story to be written, there was still one element he insisted be excluded: the women. Married with children for virtually all his adult life, le Carré – David Cornwell – had a number of secret affairs, usually conducted abroad with women encountered by chance on his travels. These relationships were always intense, dramatic, even tragic, yet each was destined to last no more than a few months. But there was one love affair that withstood the test of time; just one woman in all his life whom he took into the innermost sanctum of his writing and his heart. The Secret Heart is the account of Suleika Dawson’s unique and enduring love affair with John le Carré. Written with fearless honesty and insight, the book sheds a bold new light on one of the foremost British writers of the 20th century and offers an alternative measure of the man over the literary legend.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/593532Tue, 18 Oct 2022 08:43:37 +0000Dayana WestPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/593532 to listen full audiobooks.

In cases of unexpected or unexplained death, it was his job to determine when a person took their final breath, and whether they had died naturally - or not. But Manock did not have the necessary training for such a specialist role, and made serious errors in several major cases. The full extent of his wrongdoing, and the exact number of cases impacted by it, remain a mystery more than twenty-five years after he retired.

Se trata de episodios de sangre y confesiones increíbles que sucedieron en el Uruguay del siglo XXI.

Un relato que ilumina sobre lo peor de la sociedad, pero que también intenta dar pistas para entender a sus protagonistas sin que eso implique justificar, aceptar o defender las atrocidades que cometieron. Entrevistar a sicarios y autores intelectuales de homicidios es poner en juego la palabra y el cuerpo como un mecanismo de comunicación determinante. Estremece escuchar, duele preguntar y conocer, genera estupor transcribir y uno siente bronca al escribir estas historias.

Title: [Spanish] - Prisionero del sistema: Testimonios de un sobreviviente a la tortura y la injusticia carcelaria Author: Rafael Méndez Valenzuela Narrator: Carlos Monroy Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 20 minutes Release date: September 22, 2022 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 1 Ratings of Narrator: 5 of Total 1 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: La historia de un joven que estuvo encarcelado injustamente desde sus 20 años hasta sus 33 y de cómo venció al sistema para quedar libre. En enero de 2008 Rafael Méndez Valenzuela fue detenido en el Estado de México. Agentes federales y militares lo obligaron a firmar una declaración en la que reconocía que formaba parte del grupo criminal La Familia. Tras 10 años en prisión, y al existir una denuncia por tortura, un tribunal federal ordenó la reposición del proceso para mantenerlo preso en lo que se investigaban los hechos, aun cuando el afectado ya había cumplido su sentencia en la cárcel. Ante la suma de injusticias, su madre, la periodista Judith Valenzuela, se acercó a distintas instancias judiciales y asociaciones de derechos humanos sin mayor éxito. Fue hasta que acudió a la conferencia mañanera presidencial, donde expuso el caso, que logró que López Obrador instara a la Secretaría de Gobernación y a la Suprema Corte de Justicia a revisar el caso para que Rafael por fin fuera liberado. Con una prosa contundente que quita el aliento, Prisionero del sistema es el relato de la lucha de Rafael y su madre en contra de un sistema jurídico podrido, anacrónico. A lo largo de sus páginas descubrimos cómo la impartición de justicia en México somete a personas arbitrariamente y facilita la ilegalidad y la degradación humana de todos los que la integran: agentes policiacos, militares, ministerios públicos, jueces, gobernantes y sobre todo presos inocentes que pocas veces logran salir del infierno para rehacer su vida. Palabras de la crítica «Rafael nos lleva de la mano, a veces con susurros, a veces con gritos de desesperanza, por los vericuetos del aparato judicial mexicano, al que expone y desnuda hasta la vergüenza.

Now I'm sitting on the other side: disgraced, forced out of the police and judged to be a criminal. I want to show you what the world looks like from here. Talking to crooks, cops, forensic psychologists, scientists and victims, I've gone back to some of Australia's worst acts of badness, including unsolved murders that never made the front pages as well as infamous killings carried out by Ivan Milat and the Granny Killer, the murder of Anita Cobby, the Hoddle Street massacre, Port Arthur, horrific abuse at the Parramatta girls' home and the disappearance of preschooler William Tyrrell.

Title: The Unquiet Grave: The FBI and the Struggle for the Soul of Indian Country Author: Steve Hendricks Narrator: Charles Constant Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 13 hours 14 minutes Release date: September 13, 2022 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: In 1976 the body of Anna Mae Aquash, an American Indian luminary, was found frozen in the Badlands of South Dakota—or so the FBI said. After a suspicious autopsy and a rushed burial, friends had Aquash exhumed and found a .32-caliber bullet in her skull. Using this scandal as a point of departure, The Unquiet Grave opens a tunnel into the dark side of the FBI and its subversion of American Indian activists. But the book also discovers things the Indians would prefer to keep buried. What unfolds is a sinuous tale of conspiracy, murder, and cover-up that stretches from the plains of South Dakota to the polished corridors of Washington, D.C. Author Steve Hendricks sued the FBI over several years to pry out thousands of unseen documents about the events. His work was supported by the prestigious Fund for Investigative Journalism.

Title: Lighting Candles: A Paramilitary's War with Death, Drugs and Demons Author: David Leslie Narrator: Ruairi Conaghan Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 24 minutes Release date: September 13, 2022 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: When Manny McDonnell was twelve, he awoke to discover British troops surrounding his home in the toughest area of trouble-torn Belfast. Internment had begun and, encouraged by a fiercely Republican mother, he took to the streets with other school kids, throwing bricks, bottles and petrol bombs at soldiers. Jailed at fifteen for having IRA links, he became a unit commander leading deadly missions for the INLA before joining the IPLO, a group so vicious even the IRA ordered it to disband. But his decades of commitment to a free united Ireland turned to disillusion when bombs indiscriminately killed two little boys in mainland Britain. It was a wake-up call and, sickened by the way events were unfolding, McDonnell distanced himself from the Troubles and began to spend more time in Scotland with major gangland players Paul Ferris and Tam 'The Licensee' McGraw. Friendly with both, he then faced difficult choices when the two fell out and became bitter rivals and sworn enemies. Lighting Candles is an astonishing and horrifying exposé of one man's journey through the blood, bombs and bullets of the paramilitaries to the criminal activities of drug-smuggling gangsters. It is also a story of how, no matter what has gone before, it's possible to put the past behind you and begin again.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/620308Tue, 13 Sep 2022 08:43:37 +0000Dayana WestPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/620308 to listen full audiobooks.

These first-person contacts continue to this day. As such, this is the first book in a new series of books whose aim is to bring new revelations to the public about Bundy, the victims, the murders, and the almost murders that failed Bundy for one reason or another. This first offering, Ted Bundy: The Yearly Journal Volume One, contains a great deal of never-before-published information from a number of women who barely escaped his grasp. It also reveals Bundy’s geographic hunting pattern after his arrival in Salt Lake City, Utah, in September 1974; a surprising discovery the author never expected to make, but did, and it all came about through the valid testimonies of the women who encountered him during this period. The book also delves into what the author believes is perhaps an accurate, albeit conservative, estimate of how many women or young girls Bundy approached but failed to abduct during his years of murder. Each new volume will focus on particular aspects of the case where further investigation is warranted. There are still “unknowns” out there, and as the author has experienced, where unknowns exist the possibility of discovery awaits.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/599998Tue, 06 Sep 2022 08:43:37 +0000Dayana WestPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/599998 to listen full audiobooks.

What led to this act of femicide, and why were his victims forgotten? On May 2, 1963, Robert Killins, a former United Church minister, slaughtered every woman in his family but one. She (and her brother) lived to tell the story of what motivated a talented man who had been widely admired, a scholar and graduate from Queen's University, to stalk and terrorize the women in his family for almost twenty years and then murder them.

While they situate this murderous rampage in the literature on domestic abuse and mass murders, they also explore how the two traumatized child survivors found their way back to health and happiness.

For weeks after they were declared missing, an image of these smiling young girls dressed in their matching Manchester United kit, taken just a couple of hours before they went missing, was plastered across the British press as a nationwide search began to take place.

Title: As Far As The Saffron Fields: The Pulwama Conspiracy Author: Danesh Rana Narrator: Nimisha Sirohi Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 30 minutes Release date: July 20, 2022 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: In March 2019, two militants were killed during a siege at a house in Nowgam, on the outskirts of Srinagar. One of them was known simply as 'Idrees Bhai'. The encounter was forgotten for the most part, until investigators came upon a mangled phone that had been destroyed by Idrees Bhai. When the Samsung smartphone began to reveal its secrets, investigators realized they had hit upon a motherlode. For, Idrees Bhai was none other than Umar Farooq Alvi, the mastermind of the Pulwama suicide attack of February 2019 which had killed forty CRPF personnel, the deadliest terror attack on Indian security forces since 1989. Now, for the first time, serving IPS officer Danesh Rana meticulously pieces together the conspiracy behind the attack. Based upon personal interviews with the protagonists, police chargesheets and other evidence, Rana breaks down the modern face of militancy in Kashmir, fuelled by highly motivated young Kashmiris who have taken on the mantle of bringing down the Indian state. This is the story of a state in conflict, told through the story of a single terror attack. Piecing together the stories of several actors - from Umar the boy-wonder insurgent to Insha, the love of his life; from Adil Dar, the man who rammed a van full of explosives into the CRPF bus to Head Constable Jaimal Singh, the driver of that ill-fated bus - As Far as the Saffron Fields is by far the most definitive book on the Pulwama attack, going where no book on the Kashmir conflict has gone before.

Edwin Valero's life was like a rocket shot into a wall. With a perfect knockout record in twenty-seven fights, the demonic Venezuelan boxer, known as 'El Inca' and 'El Dinamita,' seemed destined for a clash with all-time great Manny Pacquiao. But the Fates had other ideas. Fueled by cocaine and booze and paranoia, Valero blazed into a mania that derailed his career in the ring and resulted in the brutal death of his young wife Jennifer–and soon afterward, his own. In chilling detail, Don Stradley captures one of the darkest and most sensational boxing stories in recent memory, which, until now, has never been fully told.

As revealed in their harrowing personal accounts, life for the wife and sons of Thomas 'Tommy Del' DelGiorno became a descent into hell. When Maryann Welch ignored misgivings on her wedding day and plunged into marriage with the small-time gangster, she could not have foreseen how swiftly his greed and bloodlust would propel him to the highest ranks of the South Philadelphia Mafia. In the end, guilty of a raft of crimes that included multiple murders, Tommy Del served less than a year in prison in exchange for turning government witness during a dozen trials against fellow mobsters.

This pacey account of the capture of the Kelly Gang reads like a detective story. He lurched through the gun smoke, his head encased in an iron helmet, and started shooting. To the weary police in the cordon around the Glenrowan hotel, he appeared like a monster, or a creature from hell. For over a century, the Ned Kelly legend has grown and grown. He's become Australia's Robin Hood, and leader of a colonial Irish resistance. How much of the legend is true? This is the real story of the hunt for the Kelly Gang over two long years. As gripping as any police procedural, it is an account of poorly trained officers unfamiliar with the terrain, in pursuit of the most dangerous men in the state. By recounting the story from the perspective of the law, David Dufty gets to the heart of the story and finds answers to many unresolved questions. Why was the gang always one step ahead of the police? Did law-abiding citizens really assist the outlaws? Did the barely literate Ned really write the impassioned Jerilderie Letter? Did the police really persecute the Kelly family?]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/584376Tue, 12 Jul 2022 08:43:37 +0000Dayana WestPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/584376 to listen full audiobooks.

High off his own arrogance and unrelenting in his manipulations, Thomas Capano—a golden boy in his youth, a successful attorney, a loving father—murdered Anne Marie Fahey, a woman with whom he had a rocky affair, and left her body to sink to the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean. Anastasia's investigation follows the murder's hidden grains of truth: diary entries, police reports, obituaries. The truth, however, left a messy trail. With contradictory accounts pointing every which way and a dismal lack of evidence, who was telling truth among the lies? The Summer Wind inserts the listener directly into the dramatic proceedings of 1996, offering a gripping account of the early missing person's case and subsequent hunt for the one man who held the missing pieces.

His journey has, until now, never been told. In the winter of 1979, aged just twenty-seven, the inmate who would come to be known as 'Charlie Bronson' was considered uncontrollable by the prison system. Certified insane, he was transferred from Parkhurst Prison to the most infamous high-security psychiatric hospital in England, Broadmoor Asylum for the Criminally Insane. There he embarked on a one-man campaign to retain his sanity, and to fight against the brutality of a largely hidden regime that relied on enforced drug control. This outstandingly honest account takes the reader back to those dark days. It is a journey filled with sadness, and yet it is one that includes much laughter and pathos, as well as detailing the camaraderie among fellow patients, who included Ronnie Kray and Frankie Fraser. How Charlie Bronson survived Broadmoor, what he endured and the things he witnessed are, for the very first time, documented in this sad, moving, often chilling and sometimes funny account of one man's journey into madness and his methods for surviving the UK's most feared and notorious psychiatric hospital. Capturing Bronson's unique voice, it is a roller-coaster ride of madness, pain, laughter and tears.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/582954Thu, 07 Jul 2022 08:43:37 +0000Dayana WestPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/582954 to listen full audiobooks.

Spencer Schneider was recruited in the eighties, and he stayed for more than twenty-three years as his life disintegrated, his self-esteem eroded, and he lined the pockets of Gans and her cult. Cult members met twice weekly, though they never acknowledged one another outside of meetings or gatherings. In the name of inner development, they endured the horrors of mental, sexual, and physical abuse, forced labor, arranged marriages, swindled inheritances and savings, and systematic terrorizing. Some of them broke the law. All for Gans. “During those years,” Schneider writes, “my world was School. That’s what it’s like when you’re in a cult, even one that preys on and caters to New York’s educated elite. This is my story of how I got entangled in School and how I got out.” At its core, Manhattan Cult Story is a cautionary tale of how hundreds of well-educated, savvy, and prosperous New Yorkers became fervent followers of a brilliant but demented cult leader who posed as a teacher of ancient knowledge.

Title: The Colony: Faith and Blood in a Promised Land Author: Sally Denton Narrator: Ann Richardson Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 22 minutes Release date: June 28, 2022 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: On the morning of November 4, 2019, a caravan of women and children was ambushed by masked gunmen on a desolate stretch of road in northern Mexico controlled by the Sinaloa drug cartel. Firing semi-automatic weapons, the attackers killed nine people and gravely injured five more. The victims were members of the LeBaron and La Mora communities—fundamentalist Mormons whose forebears broke from the LDS Church and settled in Mexico when their religion outlawed polygamy in the late nineteenth century. The massacre produced international headlines for weeks, and prompted President Donald Trump to threaten to send in the US Army. In The Colony, Sally Denton delves into the complex story of the LeBaron clan. Their homestead—Colonia LeBaron—is a portal into the past, a place that offers a glimpse of life within a polygamous community on an arid and dangerous frontier in the mid-1800s, though with smartphones and machine guns. Rooting her narrative in written sources as well as interviews with anonymous women from LeBaron itself, Denton unfolds an epic, disturbing tale that spans the first polygamist emigrations to Mexico through the LeBarons' internal blood feud in the 1970s and up to the family's recent alliance with the NXIVM sex cult, whose now-imprisoned leader, Keith Raniere, may have based his practices on the society he witnessed in Colonia LeBaron.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/586505Tue, 28 Jun 2022 08:43:37 +0000Dayana WestPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/586505 to listen full audiobooks.

Title: The Curse of the Turtle: The True Story of Thailand’s “Backpacker Murders” Author: Suzanne Buchanan Narrator: Eileen Buckley Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 23 minutes Release date: June 28, 2022 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: Coming soon: a documentary series featuring the book!Koh Tao, a small island in the Gulf of Thailand, surrounded by pristine beaches, swathed in sunshine, and a mecca for tourists, divers and backpackers. But “Turtle Island” has its dark side. In 2014, Koh Tao was the site of the brutal double murders of two British backpackers, but theirs weren’t the only suspicious backpacker deaths. My name is Suzanne Buchanan. I am the former owner and editor of the Samui Times, a news publication on Koh Samui, and covered the stories of the so-called “backpacker murders” and other suspicious deaths. Although I am a British citizen, because of my investigation and stories, as well as my support for the two Burmese migrant workers sentenced to death for the murders, I had to flee Thailand for my own safety. There is currently an active warrant for my arrest should I return to Thailand, which had been my home for more than twenty years, and I continue to receive death threats. In The Curse of the Turtle, listeners can make up their own minds on who is responsible for the murders that so devastated the victims’ families. Were the Burmese migrant workers responsible? Or were the powerful, tribal families who run Koh Tao involved?

Title: The Curse of the Turtle: The True Story of Thailand’s “Backpacker Murders” Author: Suzanne Buchanan Narrator: Eileen Buckley Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 23 minutes Release date: June 28, 2022 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: Coming soon: a documentary series featuring the book!Koh Tao, a small island in the Gulf of Thailand, surrounded by pristine beaches, swathed in sunshine, and a mecca for tourists, divers and backpackers. But “Turtle Island” has its dark side. In 2014, Koh Tao was the site of the brutal double murders of two British backpackers, but theirs weren’t the only suspicious backpacker deaths. My name is Suzanne Buchanan. I am the former owner and editor of the Samui Times, a news publication on Koh Samui, and covered the stories of the so-called “backpacker murders” and other suspicious deaths. Although I am a British citizen, because of my investigation and stories, as well as my support for the two Burmese migrant workers sentenced to death for the murders, I had to flee Thailand for my own safety. There is currently an active warrant for my arrest should I return to Thailand, which had been my home for more than twenty years, and I continue to receive death threats. In The Curse of the Turtle, listeners can make up their own minds on who is responsible for the murders that so devastated the victims’ families. Were the Burmese migrant workers responsible? Or were the powerful, tribal families who run Koh Tao involved? And if so, were they aided by corrupt law enforcement?]]>185cleanfullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/spanish-el-caso-viuda-negra-el-asesinato-que-pone-al-descubierto-la-mayor-red-de-lavado-de-dinero-en-el-penismo-by-zedryk-raziel-raziel--65274300https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/602209 to listen full audiobooks. Title: [Spanish] - El caso viuda negra: El asesinato que pone al descubierto la mayor red de lavado de dinero en el Peñismo Author: Zedryk Raziel Raziel, Arturo Ángel, Manu Ureste Narrator: Gabriela Warkentin, Ricardo Avilés Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 40 minutes Release date: June 23, 2022 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4 of Total 1 Ratings of Narrator: 1 of Total 1 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: El caso Viuda Negra es una historia de crimen, odio e interés por el poder que no sólo detalla los casos más oscuros de corrupción en la Secretaría de Hacienda, sino que también pone en bandeja de plata los elementos suficientes para perseguir a las grandes cabezas detrás de ellos. Isaac Gamboa era un exfuncionario de la Secretaría de Hacienda que, de la mano de Luis Videgaray, se convirtió en uno de los hombres más poderosos e importantes durante el sexenio de Peña Nieto. Su asesinato, y el de su familia en mayo de 2020, a manos de un comando armado en Temixco, Morelos, quedó sepultado bajo el móvil de un supuesto crimen pasional, orquestado por su esposa —hoy detenida— y uno de sus escoltas. Sin embargo, la información que poseía Gamboasobre desvíos de recursos durante el gobierno anterior sugiere que su silencio podría haber resultado muy conveniente para altos funcionarios del peñismo. A partir de un trabajo periodístico riguroso y un ritmo narrativo apasionante, Manu Ureste, Zedryk Raziel y Arturo Ángel —reporteros de investigación de Animal Político— relatan el multihomicidio a la luz de las tramas de corrupción en las que el exfuncionario estaba implicado: la red de empresas fantasma alrededor de él y su familia relacionadas con el lavado de hasta 5 mil 800 millones de pesos. Pero no sólo eso, también descubren en Gamboa al hombre clave para trazar el mecanismo con el que se desviaron recursos públicos en escándalos de corrupción como la Operación Safiro, que permitiría hundir a importantes funcionarios y políticos prominentes del gobierno peñista. «El caso Viuda Negra es una radiografía que, desde lo local, exhibe la podredumbre de un sistema que se protege y reproduce, que hace todo para no morir. Incluido matar.» -Gabriela Warkentin]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/602209Thu, 23 Jun 2022 08:43:37 +0000Dayana WestPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/602209 to listen full audiobooks.

El autor de Vacíos de poder en México continúa en esta obra un imperioso análisis sobre el crimen organizado y sus vínculos con la corrupción política. Prólogo de Carlos Castresana. Edgardo Buscaglia se concentra en los principios y las claves del lavado de dinero o blanqueo de capitales, la principal actividad que sostiene el patrimonio de los grupos delincuenciales. Por medio de casos paradigmáticos recientes, el autor realiza un examen de los crímenes que preceden el blanqueo en diversas naciones, desplegando posteriormente una minuciosa descripción de los modus operandi y las fases por las que los capitales de procedencia ilícita se integran en la economía legal. Al mismo tiempo, muestra con exactitud cómo se involucran distintos sectores económicos -bancario, farmacéutico, inmobiliario, remesas, entre otros- para mover dinero sucio en un trayecto tan complejo que puede atravesar decenas de países antes de lavarse de forma definitiva. Ante una delincuencia global que se expande a la par de la sangre de sus víctimas, estas páginas representan una lectura indispensable para explorar los mecanismos internacionales que han resultado más efectivos para combatir el lavado de dinero y los grandes retos pendientes tanto de los Estados como de la sociedad civil. Carlos Castrena, en el prólogo: 'Edgardo Buscaglia ha denunciado sistemáticamente, con valentía y credibilidad excepcionales, la convivencia que desde los poderes públicos y las corporaciones privadas permite a los grupos criminales desarrollarse y lavar impunemente sus ingentes beneficios. Sin embargo, su visión no es catastrofista. Identifica el problema y desarrolla una agenda con propuestas concretas.' Otros autores han opinado: 'En este libro están las claves para comprender el lavado de dinero y las estrategias para acotarlo.

In this audiobook, you’ll discover the crimes, killings and macabre acts carried out by individuals who were inspired by their favourite characters from the big screen. From the teen who slaughtered his mother and sister carrying out a Halloween inspired murder to the two young girls who attempted to stab their friend to death in the name of a fictional online character, you’ll discover crimes you’ve never heard of, all carried out by people who took their love for fiction and turned it into a terrifying reality. There’s the tale of the man who took his love for Taxi Driver to a whole new level by trying to slaughter the President. You’ll also learn about the man who adored a fictional villain from a classic movie so much that he killed two wives 13 years apart, both in a brutal fashion. Then there’s the heartbreaking tale of the gang of youths who adored a horror franchise so much they tortured and mercilessly killed a young woman who thought they were her friends. Copycat Killers delves into the inspiration behind horrifying murders and tells the tales of inspiration gone awry; when life imitates art in the worst ways imaginable.

Title: Hitmen: The Mafia, Drugs, and the East Harlem Purple Gang Author: Scott M. Deitche Narrator: Perry Daniels Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 5 hours 40 minutes Release date: May 24, 2022 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: Scott M. Deitche presents an in-depth exposé on East Harlem's notorious Purple Gang whose murderous exploits became a media obsession and Mafia lynchpin. In the late 1970s, a string of seemingly unconnected murders had Harlem police and federal authorities at their wits' end until they realized several commonalities. The victims were all either Mafia members or potential witnesses of Mafia activity and they'd all been shot from .22 pistols traced back to a single private sale in Florida. From these details, the FBI and police were able to build a profile of a rogue sect of Mafia hitmen known as the East Harlem Purple Gang. Starting on the fringes of Mafia families, the Purple Gang members became indispensable and installed members in the highest ranks of the Genovese, Bonanno, and Lucchese families. Often serving as freelance hitmen, kidnappers, and drug traffickers, the Purple Gang's exploits quickly crossed into mythology as media outlets scrambled to keep up with new murders and the law's crusade to bring the gang members to justice. Sifting through the mystery and mythos, author Scott M. Deitche brings readers into Harlem's gritty streets to experience the Purple Gang's reign of terror, the investigators who tried to bring them down, and the gang members who either suffered violent ends or are still at large today.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/584277Tue, 24 May 2022 08:43:37 +0000Dayana WestPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/584277 to listen full audiobooks.

La guerra contra el narco, la alternancia en los gobiernos de México y Estados Unidos, la captura y extradición de capos, la atomización de cárteles, el surgimiento de nuevos líderes, las fluctuaciones del mercado nacional e internacional y la evolución en el tráfico y consumo de estupefacienteshan creado un nuevo México, que atraviesa la mayor crisis de violencia en 80 años. Y las estrategias gubernamentales la empeoran: los abrazos en lugar de balazos no tienen sentido cuando existen grupos criminales que imperan en zonas enteras del país. De hecho, ya han reaparecido bandas que prácticamente estaban disueltas, estados enteros volvieron al control del narco y varios cárteles han recibido espaldarazos y mensajes que los han empoderado.

Title: Last Gangster in Austin: Frank Smith, Ronnie Earle, and the End of a Junkyard Mafia Author: Jesse Sublett Narrator: Mark Bramhall Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 34 minutes Release date: May 17, 2022 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: Ronnie Earle was a Texas legend. During his three decades as the district attorney responsible for Austin and surrounding Travis County, he prosecuted corrupt corporate executives and state officials, including the notorious US congressman Tom DeLay. But Ronnie Earle maintained that the biggest case of his career was the one involving Frank Hughey Smith, the ex-convict millionaire, alleged criminal mastermind, and Dixie Mafia figure. With the help of corrupt local authorities, Smith spent the 1970s building a criminal empire in auto salvage and bail bonds. But there was one problem: a rival in the salvage business threatened his dominance. Smith hired arsonists to destroy the rival; when they botched the job, he sent three gunmen, but the robbery they planned was a bloody fiasco. Investigators were convinced that Smith was guilty, but many were skeptical that the newly elected and inexperienced Earle could get a conviction. Amid the courtroom drama and underworld plots that the book describes, Willie Nelson makes a cameo. So do the private eyes, hired guns, and madams who kept Austin not only weird but also riddled with vice.

El 9 de enero de 1993, Jean-Claude Romand mató a su mujer, sus hijos, sus padres e intentó, sin éxito, darse muerte.

Based on the original trial transcripts, it is for you to decide if an innocent man was sent to the gallows. On January 11, 1950, Timothy Evans of 10 Rillington Place stood trial at the Old Bailey, accused of the murder of Geraldine, his own baby daughter. The courtroom was heavy with tension as the prosecution, led by Mr Christmas Humphreys, began delving into the mysterious death of his wife, building their case on the sworn testimony of a fellow tenant who resided on the ground floor… Mr John Reginald Christie. The jury took only 35 minutes to find him guilty and on March 9, still protesting his innocence, Timothy Evans was hanged at Pentonville Prison. But that wasn’t the end of the matter. Three and a half years later… Christie, by now destitute and homeless, is arrested while loitering on the embankment near Putney Bridge in London. And so begins one of the most infamous trials in British legal history, when Christie, a seemingly unassuming and quiet man is charged with the murder of his wife, Ethel. A serial killer and necrophiliac, he is tried in the same court as Evans and in spite of his plea of insanity, he is destined to stand on the very same gallows at Pentonville Prison as Timothy Evans.

La minería es uno de los negocios más jugosos del país... pero no para los trabajadores o las comunidades donde se desarrolla. Deja una utilidad anual de $200,000 millones de dólares, de los cuales muypocos se ven reflejados en la calidad de vida de la sociedad mexicana, que en cambio sí sufre los estragos de la explotación desmesurada. Solapadas por el gobierno desde hace al menos veinticinco años, cuando se firmó el Tratado de Libre Comercio de América del Norte, cerca de 267 compañías -principalmente canadienses y estadounidenses- operan en México sin escrúpulos ni restricciones. Lo peor de todo es que a su alrededor convergen los peores males que aquejan a nuestro país: corrupción, desgobierno, narcotráfico, violencia, pobreza y desplazamiento. Esta investigación, que el reportero J. Jesús Lemus realizó por los cuatro rincones del país, revela por primera vez las operaciones ilegales de la industria minera que, por increíble que parezca, opacan la brutalidad del narcotráfico, y lanza una alerta urgente sobre los peligros que representan para la soberanía y la supervivencia de nuestro país.

It is a world where good men are corrupted by the irresistible lure of money and power and families are shattered by lies, violence, and tragedy. Danny Seifert, a street-smart and ambitious young man, follows his father’s example in his efforts to provide a good, comfortable life for his wife and children. Soon, however, his path leads him toward the dark heart of the Mob. His career choices eventually bring him to a point where he must choose between loyalty to the Mob and probable prison time, or coming clean to the FBI, testifying against Mob leaders, and risking retaliation to himself and his family. He chooses the latter, which ultimately leads to his murder and decades of living in fear for his widow, Emma, and their children. As they grow into men, Danny’s sons, Joe and Nick, take it upon themselves to find the man responsible for their father’s death and make him pay. In seeking retribution for Danny, will they also succumb to lives of crime, or will they follow the high road of law and justice all the way to the Family Secrets trial in 2007, one of the largest Mob trials in history?

Title: Confession of a Serial Killer: The Untold Story of Dennis Rader, the BTK Killer Author: Katherine Ramsland Narrator: Michael Braun Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 11 minutes Release date: January 18, 2022 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 2 Ratings of Narrator: 5 of Total 2 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: Explore the mind and motivations of a serial killer. In 1974, Dennis Lynn Rader stalked and murdered a family of four in Wichita, Kansas. Since adolescence, he had read about serial killers and imagined becoming one. Soon after killing the family, he murdered a young woman and then another, until he had ten victims. He named himself “B.T.K.” (bind, torture, kill) and wrote notes that terrorized the city. He remained on the loose for thirty years. No one who knew him guessed his dark secret. He nearly got away with his crimes, but in 2004, he began to play risky games with the police. He made a mistake. When he was arrested, Rader’s family, friends, and coworkers were shocked to discover that B.T.K. had been among them, going to work, raising his children, and acting normal. This case stands out both for the brutal treatment of victims and for the ordinary public face that Rader, a church council president, had shown to the outside world. Through jailhouse visits, telephone calls, and written correspondence, Katherine Ramsland worked with Rader himself to analyze the layers of his psyche. Using his drawings, letters, interviews, and Rader’s unique codes, she presents in meticulous detail the childhood roots and development of one man’s motivation to stalk, torture, and kill. She reveals aspects of the dark motivations of this most famous of living serial killers that have never before been revealed. In this audiobook Katherine Ramsland presents an intelligent, original, and rare glimpse into the making of a serial killer and the potential darkness that lives next door.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/587387Tue, 18 Jan 2022 08:43:37 +0000Dayana WestPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/587387 to listen full audiobooks.

Givens, David Bushman Narrator: Robert Fass Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 59 minutes Release date: January 1, 2022 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: A brilliantly researched reinvestigation into the nearly forgotten century-old murder that inspired one of the most seductive mysteries in the history of television and film. In 1908, Hazel Drew was found floating in a pond in Sand Lake, New York, beaten to death. The unsolved murder inspired rumors, speculation, ghost stories, and, almost a century later, the phenomenon of Twin Peaks. Who killed Hazel Drew? Like Laura Palmer, she was a paradox of personalities—a young, beautiful puzzle with secrets. Perhaps the even trickier question is, Who was Hazel Drew? Seeking escape from her poor country roots, Hazel found work as a domestic servant in the notoriously corrupt metropolis of Troy, New York. Fate derailed her plans for reinvention. But the investigation that followed her brutal murder was fraught with red herrings, wild-goose chases, and unreliable witnesses. Did officials really follow the leads? Or did they bury them to protect the guilty?

He was the first guy to take the fall. Now, he is the first to tell the whole truth—and nothing but the truth. For O. J. Simpson to get away with murder, an innocent cop had to be destroyed—that was the strategy of the Simpson defense. But as certainty about Simpson's guilt grew, so did outrage about the scapegoating of Detective Mark Fuhrman. Fuhrman knew how the police mishandled and overlooked key evidence. He knew where the prosecutors went wrong. Now the former LAPD detective tells his side of the story in this damning expos├®. In this blockbuster book, Fuhrman takes listeners on a detective's journey through the crucial first twenty-four hours of the investigation. We uncover not only the bloody glove but explosive new evidence recorded by Fuhrman and his partner at the scene but astonishingly never presented at the trial. Fuhrman's own hand-drawn maps of the crime scene and his reconstruction of the murders leave no doubt about what really happened at South Bundy Driveon June 12, 1994.
