  My Secret Life Volume Seven...

  My Secret Life is an anonymously penned memoir written during a period from the 1840s to the 1880s by a wealthy and sex obsessed English gentleman who refers to himself simply as ‘Walter’. Part confessional, part investigative erotic journalism, it meticulously documents every detail of the author’s prolific sexual encounters, offering us in the process an eye and thigh opening account of life behind closed doors in the Victorian age.
  
  Women, in both mind and body, were the all consuming object of Walter’s interest. From early youth through to old age his quest for erotic discovery and adventure with them was never diminished.
  
  Unlike contemporary 19th century erotic texts, such as The Pearl, whose sole object was to titillate, Walter’s interest in his subjects did not end with the extinguishing of the carnal flame. His hunger to understand the circumstances and minds of the women he encountered is never upstaged by the sex. Their potted life histories, their most intimate desires and acts were shared with him and in turn meticulously recorded by him, written down verbatim while still fresh in his mind.
  
  The resulting poignant record of a lost era and the intimate moments of the women who inhabited it offer us a remarkable insight into the 19th century that cannot be gleaned from any other source.
  
  The complete unabridged text is being released as a fully scored audiofilm (an audio book with accompanying music soundtrack) by film composer Dominic Crawford Collins.

  "The highlights of my extraordinary journey with Mr Clarkson included pizza with Harry and Wills; dancing with Mick Jagger on the private island of Mustique (Mick had to pull me up after, shamefully, I could not recover from the twist!); and having happy birthday sung to me by Brian Ferry and Richard E. Grant. I was asked out by Hugh Grant (and went!); partied at what I called Jimmy Carr’s celebtastic weekly house parties attended by Sir Elton John, James Corden and the like; and, at Jerry Hall and Rupert Murdoch’s engagement party, I received the ultimate compliment on my outfit from the Dame Joan Collins. 
  The adventures, laughter, drama and excitement were neverending. Party after party, celeb after celeb, private villas, palaces, MPs and royalty adorned our crazy life on this road less travelled. 
  From the low-budget, dark, smoke- and fume-filled halls of Earls Court Exhibition Centre and the NEC in Birmingham, where the highlights of our nights out were a good curry and gallons of beer followed by ridiculous games of girl-on-girl arm wrestling and the Celebrity Loo Roll Challenge – this entailed Clarkson, Hammond, May or The Stig having to return from the bathroom with loo roll tucked down their trousers, trailing a length of loo paper from cubicle to table without it breaking – Jeremy ascended to great heights, both in his professional career and his personal life. So too did our relationship, leading us both into a social circle that most can only dream of." 
  In The Wonderful World of Jeremy Clarkson, Phillipa Sage shares her continuing adventures – the ongoing highs, lows and constant mayhem – she shared for so many years with Clarkson and his fellow presenters, Hammond and May, some of which she had begun to detail in her first book, Off Road with Clarkson, Hammond and May.

  They were nurses, grandmothers, wives—women who seemed incapable of harm. But behind charming smiles and gentle facades lurked some of history's most chilling killers. 
  In Beauty Turned Deadly, narrator Davidson David takes you deep into twelve shocking true crime stories that will keep you listening long into the night. These aren't the famous cases everyone knows. These are the forgotten monsters, the women who poisoned with patience, strangled with precision, and killed without remorse. 
  From Bertha Gifford, the Missouri farmwife who poisoned seventeen neighbors with arsenic-laced meals, to Juana Barraza, the Mexican wrestler who murdered elderly women while hiding in plain sight—each story reveals the disturbing psychology behind female serial killers who shattered every expectation of what evil looks like. 
  You'll discover the Victorian baby farmer who threw infants into the Thames River, the Chicago fortune teller who scheduled deaths like appointments, and the Australian grandmother who served poison in teacups. These women used society's trust against their victims, exploiting the belief that mothers, caregivers, and sweet old ladies could never be capable of murder. 
  Davidson David's narration brings each case to life with gripping detail, psychological depth, and the perfect balance of horror and humanity. Every chapter reads like a thriller, but these nightmares were real. 
  Perfect for fans of dark true crime audiobooks, murder mysteries, and anyone fascinated by the hidden side of criminal history. This collection exposes the terrifying truth: evil doesn't always look like a monster. Sometimes it looks like the woman next door. 
  Warning: Contains mature themes including violence, murder, and psychological abuse. Listener discretion advised.

  Robert Foley had only been in Vietnam for six months when he was promoted to captain and given command of a rifle company. In November 1966, Foley led his men on a mission to rescue another company that had been pinned down by Viet Cong forces. His leadership that day inspired his men and led to a successful operation—and the Medal of Honor. His actions in Vietnam were only a small portion of a long and varied career of service in the US Army, but Foley did not always seem marked for success. Coming from a blue-collar suburb of Boston, his years in West Point were marked by poor grades, injuries, and sickness. With a determination to lead by example and inspire trust among others, Foley served across the globe and rose through the ranks. He even returned to West Point as Commandant of Cadets, later retiring as a 3-star general and commander of Fifth Army.
