  ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
  In Patricia Briggs’s Cry Wolf, readers are plunged into a world where werewolves navigate complex social structures and face threats from both within and outside their community. The story centers on Charles, a powerful werewolf tasked with investigating a series of disturbing attacks. As he delves deeper into the mystery, he uncovers a sinister plot orchestrated by Mariposa, a ruthless witch with the ability to control werewolves, who seeks to usurp the Marrok, the leader of the North American werewolves. The narrative explores themes of power, loyalty, and the enduring impact of trauma. Charles, burdened by his violent past, finds solace in his relationship with Anna, an Omega werewolf who offers him a sense of peace. Asil, haunted by the loss of his mate, becomes entangled in Mariposa's web of manipulation, drawn to a false promise of resurrection. The story unfolds amidst a backdrop of ancient magic and supernatural intrigue, where werewolves struggle to maintain their place in a world where danger lurks around every corner.

  Bizarro - The Surreal Saga of...

  Jordan S. Rubin

  Inside a drug war so screwy that people don't know what's illegal—until it's too late. 
   
   
   
  Bizarro is a must-listen tale of the unprecedented prosecution of Burton Ritchie and Ben Galecki, the Florida-based founders of a sprawling "spice" (synthetic cannabinoid) operation. With this book, journalist and former New York City narcotics prosecutor Jordan S. Rubin exposes a Reagan-era law called the Analogue Act, which targets dealers selling drugs that are "substantially similar" to controlled substances—an unwieldy law that produces erratic results in court. 
   
   
   
  Rubin brings listeners deep inside the synthetic war, exploring how Ritchie and Galecki landed in its crosshairs and why one of the DEA's own chemists may have been their best chance at freedom, until he was arrested too. This stranger-than-fiction narrative is backed by thousands of pages of court records and exclusive interviews with defendants, lawyers, law enforcement, celebrities, and more. Bizarro reveals the world of underground chemists making drugs faster than the government can ban them, dealers making millions in a gray market, and a justice system run amok.
