  England in the 19th century. Victoria is on the throne. The nation is at its height. An Empire stretching around the globe. Industrial and scientific advancement. Literary and artistic excellence. 
   
  And yet, behind the glow of this supposedly golden age, there lay hidden human misery and extremes of depravity. This was the age of Sherlock Holmes, Jack the Ripper and the terrible poverty of millions living in slums. Drink, drugs, prostitution, murder. All these were the norm in the dark and dirty back alleys of the cities. 
   
  In the small village of Pyle Marsh just outside of Bristol, lived a master shoemaker by the name of Samuel Hobley. He and his wife were comfortable and raised five children. The youngest of these was the girl who would later be known as Amelia Dyer. She would become one of the worlds most notorious serial killers. We know her today as the Angel Maker.

  On the day she was murdered, Myrtle Underwood Cook boasted to local authorities about new evidence of a major bootlegging ring operating out of the Rock Island train depot behind her house in a small town in eastern Iowa. Then, as she sat at her window sewing, she took a single slug through the heart. She was president of the local temperance union; her killing made the front page of the New York Times. The next day her funeral made national news due to the eerie presence of a small army from the Ku Klux Klan, its members, donned in full regalia, drawn from three surrounding states. 
   
   
   
  It was September 1925, and Al Capone had just taken over the Chicago Outfit, evangelist Billy Sunday was converting thousands to temperance, and the KKK had marched on Washington, DC. During its first half century of statehood, Iowa lurched from wet to dry and back eight times before Prohibition was ratified in 1919. And when Iowa was still a territory, its Black Codes imprinted generations with a legacy of intolerance and racism. 
   
   
   
  Mrs. Cook and the Klan is a true crime investigation that not only sheds new light on Myrtle Underwood Cook's unsolved killing but also explores the confluence of the social, political, and economic forces that brought the Klan, street gangs, a local mob boss, and the temperance movement together in a small American town.

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  Many doctors in Germany were convinced that they were the chosen people to create a healthy, racially pure Volkskörper (body of people) and by doing so, establish a racial utopia. As strong supporters of National Socialism, they welcomed the founding of the Third Reich. After Hitler acceded to power, German physicians joined the SS in particular. During the twelve years of the Nazi era, seven percent of German doctors became members of the SS. The average membership of the population was only 0.6 percent. Moreover, doctors were also overrepresented as a profession, with teachers consisting of less than half a percent and musicians only three percent. Only lawyers had a larger share in the SS than doctors. 
  The average income of German doctors increased extremely after 1933, even exceeding the income of lawyers. The Nazi doctors of the human experiments also joined the SS in large numbers. German doctors were far more reluctant to join the NSDAP than the SS. Before 1933, only seven percent of all German doctors joined the NSDAP (Nazi party). They joined the party when it seemed opportune to do so, in 1933, and particularly in 1937. In 1933, physicians made up almost a quarter of all academic professionals in the NSDAP. Most doctors joined the NSDAP in 1937, with a membership rate of 43 percent of the total profession. German physicians sat on the fence during the first years of the Nazi era, insecure about the effects of the new regime on their profession. By 1937, the Third Reich had won the trust of several reasons. The NSDAP had solved the economic crisis and had reorganized the medical profession. Moreover, the regime had solved “the Jewish question” in the medical sector.

Recently divorced, Di was flattered when, in late 2014, a customer she assisted in the store she helped manage expressed a romantic interest in her. She eventually accepted his invitations and, as their relationship developed, it seemed this suave, charming man was too good to be true. And he was. 
  Di’s life quickly became a story of survival and fear. She was harassed, stalked, defamed, and accused of murdering her best friend. Facing death threats, Di turned to the authorities, but it seemed no one could—or would—put a stop to her nightmare.
