Title: A Death in Malta: An Assassination and a Family's Quest for Justice

Author: Paul Caruana Galizia

Narrator: Paul Caruana Galizia

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 9 hours 51 minutes

Release date: November 7, 2023

Genres: True Crime

Publisher's Summary:

“A chronicle of the sort of silencing-by-murder that we might have thought happens only in Vladimir Putin’s Russia. . . . [and] a son’s distraught but beautiful tribute to his journalist-mother. . . . Exquisite.” —Wall Street Journal A journalist’s spellbinding account of the shocking murder of his muckraking mother and a quest for justice that has reverberated far beyond their tiny homeland An archipelago off the southern coast of Italy, Malta is a picturesque gem eroded by a climate of corruption, polarization, inequality, and a virtual absence of civic spirit. In this unpromising soil, a fearless journalist took root. Daphne Caruana Galizia fashioned herself into the country’s lonely voice of conscience, her muckraking and editorializing sending shock waves that threatened to topple those in power and made her at once the island’s best-known figure and its most reviled. In 2017, a campaign of intimidation against her culminated in a car bombing that took her life.   Daphne was also he devoted and inspiring mother to three sons, who with their father have carried on the quest for justice and transparency after her death. Spellbindingly narrated by the youngest of them, the award-winning journalist Paul Caruana Galizia, A Death in Malta is at once a study in heroism and the powerful story of a family’s crusade for accountability in a society built on lies, with reverberations far beyond their homeland.

Title: Look What You Made Me Do: Fathers Who Kill

Author: Megan Norris

Narrator: Ella James

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 15 hours 16 minutes

Release date: November 1, 2023

Genres: True Crime

Publisher's Summary:

One Australian woman is hospitalised every three hours and two more lose their lives each week as a result of family violence. But for some women there is a punishment far more enduring than injury or their own death. Look What You Made Me Do is a timely exploration of the evil inflicted by vengeful fathers who have killed their own children simply to punish partners for ending unrewarding, often abusive relationships. Drawing on her own experience as a court reporter, award-winning crime writer Megan Norris examines the revenge murders of eighteen children to shine a light on the ultimate act of family violence and the shattering legacy of grief such crimes have on surviving mothers. From the 2018 execution-style shooting murders of Sydney teenagers, Jack and Jennifer Edwards whose angry dad was granted a licence to kill despite his long-standing history of domestic violence – to the premeditated murders of Brisbane mum, Hannah Clarke and her three children whose car was torched by her vengeful ex – this book shows it is not only women who are at risk when family violence turns deadly. ‘Megan Norris has been a trailblazer. The events so accurately described in this book provide powerful insights into widespread patterns of power and control, and the profound harms that can result.' DR DEBBIE KIRKWOOD, Author of Just Say Goodbye ‘It's through sharing these stories that we can lift the sense of shame that clouds victim-survivors, and debunk the myths around intimacy, power and control... We must continue to create change and push for law reform.' MARK WOOLLEY, Small Steps 4 Hannah

Title: Serial Killer: The Story of H. H. Holmes

Author: Raphael Terra

Narrator: Synthetic Voice (tts)

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 0 hours 38 minutes

Release date: October 31, 2023

Genres: True Crime

Publisher's Summary:

This audiobook has been recorded using Text to speech (TTS). Humanity has achieved great heights. We have landed on the moon, placed a powerful computer in our pockets, cured numerous diseases and brought the world the most evil and deranged serial killers. There are very few that stand out quite as much as H. H. Holmes and his Murder Hotel. In fact, his notoriety is so great that Hollywood embarked on a blockbuster about him and now it is even claimed that Britains most notorious serial killer, Jack the Ripper, was none other than H. H. Holmes himself. He presided over the "castle". A devilish architectural creation in down town Chicago made specifically to murder people. Trap doors, chutes, false doors, hidden passageways and spy holes made the Murder Castle the infamous building of its age. Many victims were beaten to death. Some were strangled. Others gassed. And yet more were tortured on racks before they lost their lives. He was not just satisfied with the gruesome murders of adults, Holmes sadistically tormented and killed children as well. In one case he chopped off a young girls feet and buried her with her sister. When he was finally caught, he confessed to twenty seven murders, although it is believed by many that he murdered over 200. But it is not the number of deaths that is the cause of his devilish fame, it is in fact the methods he used. He said that he had been possessed by the devil from the day he was born - and who are we to argue? This is the tale of the evil dark lord of the Murder Hotel - guts and all.

Title: Love, Sex and Murder?: The real-life romance between Jens Soering and Elizabeth Haysom

Author: Jens Soering

Narrator: Jens Soering

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 4 hours 11 minutes

Release date: October 23, 2023

Genres: True Crime

Publisher's Summary:

The Netflix series 'Till murder do us part: Soering vs. Haysom' deals with the Haysom murders in detail, but the love affair between Elizabeth Haysom and Jens Soering comes up a little short. What was their relationship really like back then? How could Jens have fallen so deeply in love with Elizabeth that he was willing to get involved in a double-murder? Jens wrote about this years ago in A far, far better thing (Lantern Books 2017). While the focus of that book is on the murders, seven chapters have almost nothing to do with the crime. Instead, they describe the passionate early months of Elizabeth's and Jens's affair, as well as the five months they spent together on the run in south-eastern Europe, Asia and Great Britain. In this audiobook, Jens reads these seven chapters from A far, far better thing himself. This material is perfectly capable of standing on its own; listeners don't need to know anything about the murder case in order to be drawn into the romantic spell of the story. Was Elizabeth's and Jens's affair really just a nightmare of manipulation and deception? Or was it perhaps also, at least for a time, something beautiful?

Title: Dear Jacob

Author: Patty Wetterling, Joy Baker

Narrator: Rebecca Stern

Length: 13 hours 28 minutes

Release date: October 17, 2023

Ratings: Ratings of Book: 3.67 of Total 6

Ratings of Narrator: 5 of Total 1

Genres: True Crime

Publisher's Summary:

On October 22, 1989, in the small town of St. Joseph, Minnesota, eleven-year-old Jacob Wetterling was kidnapped at gunpoint. Twenty-seven years later, Danny Heinrich led authorities to the boy’s remains. What lies between is the riveting story of the search for Jacob, told by his mother, Patty. With down-to-earth candor, she details the investigation as it unfolds, discusses her family’s struggles, and shows how she maintained her energy and optimism. For her own survival, Patty chose to focus on hope. She became a speaker, trainer, and national advocate for missing children. Her lobbying work took her to Washington, DC, where in 1994 Congress passed the Jacob Wetterling Act, establishing a national sex offender registry. In 2013, the Wetterlings were joined on their quest for answers by two unlikely allies: local blogger Joy Baker and plumber Jared Scheierl. Baker convinced Scheierl to come forward and share his story about being kidnapped from a nearby town and sexually assaulted the same year as Jacob. Together, Baker and Scheierl uncovered a string of similar assaults that had never been fully investigated. The combined efforts of this foursome led to the breakthrough that solved the case. Dear Jacob offers not only a behind-the-scenes account of one of America's most notorious crimes but also a historical account of what has been done in the years since to combat the problem of missing and exploited children.
