    In Being There, Tony Leon goes behind the scenes, reflecting on how history is made, both here and around the world, through his unique mixture of anecdote and informed opinion.
His vantage point ranges from a ringside seat in the recent formation of the government of national unity (GNU) – recounted in detail here for the first time – to close encounters with the likes of Harry Oppenheimer, Ariel Sharon, Yasser Arafat and Boris Johnson, and reappraisals of FW de Klerk, Nelson Mandela and Mangosuthu Buthelezi.
Leon writes of the dangers of modern politics, from the purgatory of social media to the perils of political fundraising in tough times. The challenge of leadership, in a world often led by populist grifters or uninspiring time-servers, runs like a golden thread through the book.
Written with his customary blend of humour and flair, and with an eye to the future and what the present and the past can tell us about it, Being There is both important and highly readable.

    For sixty-five years, a young couple's murder in Montana remained an unsolved mystery. Patricia Kalitzke and Lloyd Bogle were found brutally killed in 1956, their case going cold as decades passed and investigators hit dead end after dead end. Then DNA genealogy technology did the impossible—it reached back through time and finally revealed the truth. This audiobook contains fifteen of the most gripping true crime stories where justice arrived decades later, proving that no case is ever truly unsolvable. 
From a teenager's murder forgotten by time to a man wrongfully imprisoned for twenty years, from serial killers hiding in plain sight to DNA evidence that becomes a silent confession—these are real crimes, real families, and real investigators who refused to give up. Discover how cutting-edge forensic genealogy, persistence, and the power of preserved evidence have transformed cold case investigation across America. Listen as mysteries that seemed permanent suddenly find resolution, and families who waited generations for answers finally receive the closure they desperately needed. 
Each story reveals how modern science is rewriting the rules of justice, proving that DNA technology can identify perpetrators decades after their crimes, that genealogy databases are becoming powerful investigative tools, and that the truth has a way of emerging no matter how long it takes. These are stories of hope, determination, and the remarkable breakthroughs that give voice to victims who have been waiting in silence for justice. 
Perfect for fans of true crime, forensic investigation, and stories of justice finally served.
