Synopsis

This collection of crime stories delves deep into the human psyche, exploring not only the acts of crime but also the motivations, emotions, and moral dilemmas that surround them. Through intricate plots, unexpected twists, and a diverse cast of compelling characters—from cunning criminals to brave detectives—the stories reflect the complexities of justice, truth, loyalty, and human resilience. Crime fiction, more than mere entertainment, offers a mirror to society, prompting readers to question notions of right and wrong, vengeance and forgiveness, and the blurred lines between good and evil. These tales investigate not only the events but also the psychological landscapes of those involved, offering a profound look into both perpetrators and victims. This book is both a thrilling read and a thoughtful exploration of the human condition. It aims to entertain, provoke thought, and ignite a deeper understanding of the forces that shape our choices and values.

    Everyone has a final secret. I collect them. 
    My patients aren’t on my ward just to die - they’re here to confess.  
    Before the body bag, there’s a final reckoning. Murderers. Serial Killers. Monsters in human skin. They tell me their truths because I don’t flinch - and because I’ve made a deal with death.  
    These are the confessions no one gets to hear. These are the behind-the-scenes confessions that don’t make it into the Asylum Confession books, the ones I hear but wasn’t sure I’d share.  
    Well, now I am.  
    And you get to hear them. One confession at a time. 
    Welcome to Only Jack Knows.What to expect: 
    You ever meet someone who seemed… normal? 
    Yeah, Madison was that guy. 
    Tall, polite, a little nerdy—but there was something off behind his eyes. 
    I didn’t see it at first. None of us did. 
    Until he snapped. 
    In this episode, I take you inside an unsettling confession about love, loss, and what a man will do when grief turns to rage. 
    This one doesn’t come with a trigger warning. 
    Because by the time you realize what he did… it’s already too late.
