  THE MAJOR MOTION PICTURE IN DEVELOPMENT ‘MEIERGATE’ IS ABOUT THE LIFE STORY OF JOHN MEIER 
  Meier had Top Secret security clearance with the U.S. Government and has been referred to in the media as the man who brought down U.S. President Richard Nixon in Watergate and was the first person to expose the CIA’s involvement with the Hughes Organization and the only person to call for a congressional hearing into the death of Howard Hughes.

  In the book Meier sums up his politically motivated battle by saying “My story is one of a man devastated by a corrupt system. Our governments are increasingly disrespectful of basic human rights such that we can no longer legitimately call our nations democracies. I hope that this story will contribute to changing this course”.

  By the time he was brought to trial in 1992, Soviet serial killer Andrei Chikatilo had killed more than fifty women and children, often sexually abusing them and leaving their bodies mutilated beyond recognition. Although he was initially arrested in 1984, the police lacked enough evidence to pin the unsolved murders on him and he was able to torture and kill dozens more before his eventual conviction. Compiling exclusive interviews and trial transcripts, journalist and editor at London's Sunday Times Peter Conradi reveals how the grandfather and former teacher carried out a horrific twelve-year killing spree. 
   
   
    
  Based on extensive research into Chikatilo's past and the elements of Soviet society that allowed his crimes to go unsolved for so long, Conradi delves into the life of one of history's most prolific and disturbing serial killers. Interviews with Moscow police detectives detail the fervent hunt for the man who preyed on young children, prostitutes, and runaways. 
   
   
    
  A chilling look into the deranged mind of a monster, The Red Ripper is a comprehensive and shocking true crime account of one of the twentieth century's deadliest killers.

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  What if the obsessive search for purpose is actually preventing you from living a meaningful life? Vera Mindwell delivers a refreshing critique of purpose culture in this thought-provoking audiobook that challenges our society's fixation on finding your why. Discover why demanding that life have a grand purpose often leads to disappointment, anxiety, and existential crisis rather than fulfillment. Through philosophical inquiry and psychological research, Mindwell examines how the purpose industry creates artificial problems while selling inadequate solutions. Learn why many happy, accomplished people never identified a singular calling yet built deeply satisfying lives anyway. This guide explores alternative frameworks for creating meaning without requiring cosmic significance or predetermined missions. Understand how purpose pressure particularly harms young people making career decisions and midlife adults questioning their choices. Mindwell provides practical wisdom for finding satisfaction in ordinary experiences, relationships, and contributions without needing everything to connect to some ultimate destiny. Whether you have struggled to discover your purpose or simply feel skeptical about the entire concept, this audiobook validates your doubts while offering constructive alternatives. Stop torturing yourself over life's meaning and start appreciating what already matters. Perfect for pragmatic thinkers tired of motivational speakers demanding you find your passion and purpose before you can feel complete.
