  Napoleon Bonaparte's journey from a modest Corsican background to one of history's greatest military leaders is nothing short of remarkable. Born on August 15, 1769, in Ajaccio, Corsica, a French territory that had only recently been acquired from the Genoese, Napoleon’s early years were shaped by the turbulent political climate of his homeland. Corsica, a fiercely independent island, had a long history of resistance to foreign rule, and Napoleon’s family, though of noble descent, was not wealthy. His father, Carlo Bonaparte, was a lawyer and political leader who supported French rule, a decision that ultimately benefitted his son’s future. The Bonaparte family’s political connections allowed Napoleon to receive an education in mainland France, beginning at a military academy in Brienne-le-Château at the age of nine. 
  Despite his alienation due to his Corsican accent and outsider status, Napoleon excelled in his studies. He was particularly gifted in mathematics, which would later serve him well in military strategy and artillery. His time at the École Militaire in Paris further honed his military skills, and by the age of 16, he had graduated and was commissioned as a second lieutenant in the French artillery. The early years of his military career were marked by the turbulence of the French Revolution, which had begun in 1789, when Napoleon was just 20 years old. The Revolution provided opportunities for ambitious and talented individuals like Napoleon to rise through the ranks, as the French military underwent significant reform. 
  During the Revolution, Napoleon’s loyalty to the revolutionary ideals of equality and fraternity became evident. In 1793, he gained recognition for his role in the Siege of Toulon, where he played a pivotal part in expelling the British from the French port city. His brilliance in artillery tactics and his ability to inspire his troops did not go unnoticed.

  The Millionaire in the Box: How Nissan's Carlos Ghosn Escaped Japan to Lebanon 
  When success becomes a curse and achievement transforms into deadly enmity, witness the extraordinary tale of Carlos Ghosn—the Lebanese-born business legend who rescued two automotive giants from bankruptcy only to find himself trapped in an international conspiracy. 
  From humble immigrant beginnings to becoming the celebrated CEO of both Renault and Nissan simultaneously, Ghosn was hailed as "The Savior" and "The Man with the Golden Touch." His revolutionary management style transformed failing corporations into global powerhouses, earning him manga fame and standing ovations in Japanese restaurants. 
  But behind the boardroom triumphs lay a web of cultural tensions, political intrigue, and corporate betrayal. When Japanese authorities arrested the 68-year-old millionaire on fabricated financial charges, subjecting him to months of solitary confinement and psychological torture, Ghosn faced an impossible choice: surrender to a rigged judicial system with a 99.4% conviction rate, or risk everything in the most audacious escape of the modern era. 
  This gripping audiobook reveals the shocking truth behind Ghosn's legendary escape—hidden inside a musical instrument box, crossing international borders while authorities hunted him. More than a business biography, this is a modern epic exposing the dark underbelly of corporate power, international politics, and the price of challenging established systems. 
  Discover how cultural arrogance led to spectacular downfall, why the French government abandoned their citizen, and the ingenious planning behind history's most talked-about corporate escape. A tale that combines boardroom drama with airport thriller suspense, revealing how one man's refusal to accept injustice sparked a global diplomatic crisis.

  Innocent young women, a sadistic serial killing duo and … the true story as revealed by the lead detective. 
   
  Australia’s most prolific serial sexual killers met in prison. They were a complete contrast: Christopher Worrell, the charismatic psychopathic youngster; and James Miller, the older and socially awkward loner. For Miller, it was love at first sight. They developed an ominous sexual bond – proving that opposites can attract – and then kill. 
   
  Once free, the inseparable tag team slayed as many people as notorious Australian serial killer Ivan Milat. Whereas Milat took a year to murder seven victims, the duo achieved the same in seven short weeks … the last four killed in only six days. 
  The frenzied carnage only stopped when Worrell died in a car accident. So ended the life of Australia’s own BTK. Like America’s Dennis Radar, Worrell bound, tortured and killed – because he could. 
   
  Revealed for the first time is the full account of the victims, the serial killers and the lead detective, a relentless investigator who broke the silence of the surviving murderer, the only person who knew the full truth … But was Miller’s truth the whole truth and nothing but the truth?

  Arnold Rothstein and the 1919...

  In the early 20th century, one of the most integral members of the criminal underworld was Arnold Rothstein, the archetype of the old school mobster. He was intelligent, charming, well-spoken, grotesquely wealthy, and a sharp dresser, often pictured with a patterned bowtie and a flat-top fedora snugly fit over his receding hairline. And yet, he was nothing like the stereotypical mobster; Arnold was not a drinker or smoker, and he was not one to be tempted by illicit substances. He was a notorious high roller, with pockets holding wads of $100 bills, but to the casual eye, he was just another dapper, well-mannered gentleman who frequented the tracks and casinos after a long day at the office. 
  Today, Rothstein is remembered for his murky association with the most notorious event in the history of American sports: the fixing of the 1919 World Series by the Chicago White Sox. The White Sox were favored 5:1 to beat the Cincinnati Reds, and for the first time since 1903, the Series would be a best-of-nine format. However, at a time when players were treated as second class, some sought a payday beyond what they made in the leagues, and the White Sox players were some of the most poorly paid in the league. The owner of the team, Charles A. Comiskey, was one of the cheapest owners in the game. 
  Around two weeks before the World Series, Chicago first baseman Chick Gandil met with a gambler in his Boston hotel room. During that meeting, Gandil told Joseph Sullivan that for $100,000, he and other members of the White Sox were willing to take a dive and make sure that the Reds won the World Series. Gandil was able to convince the team’s top two pitchers to go along with the plan, as well as five other players. With that, the plan to throw the World Series was put in motion, and rumors began to spread around the country prior to the start of the series as gamblers wagered large sums of money on the Reds.
