  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  What if Peter Pan wasn’t the hero? 
  We all know the story of the boy who wouldn’t grow up. But beneath the fairy dust and Neverland adventures lies a far more unsettling truth—one that’s been ignored for over a century. 
  In Hook Was Right: The Sinister Side of Peter Pan, author James G. Edwards II pulls back the curtain on one of literature’s most beloved characters, exposing the dark psychology and troubling power dynamics hidden in plain sight. This isn’t a children’s tale—it’s a cautionary one. 
  1. What if the Lost Boys were victims, not volunteers? 
  2. Was Captain Hook the only adult who saw through the illusion? 
  3. Why does no one in Neverland remember who they are—or want to leave? 
  Combining literary criticism, psychological insight, and cultural analysis, this book reinterprets Peter Pan through a modern lens—tackling themes like trauma, memory loss, emotional manipulation, and eternal youth as a weapon. 
  Whether you’re a fan of classic literature, dark fairy tales, or thought-provoking nonfiction, this book will challenge everything you thought you knew about Neverland—and make you wonder if Hook was the real hero all along. 
  Neverland isn’t a dream. It’s a trap.  
  And Peter Pan may be its most dangerous resident.

  Black Dahlia and Sharon Tate...

  Editors Charles River

  In the years following World War II, Los Angeles and other large American cities were hit with a series of brutal murders that, in many ways, fit into distinct patterns across the country. The Los Angeles Police Department was overwhelmed, caught up dealing with mob activities, inner corruption, a regional press that brazenly invaded legal confidentiality within the walls of the police department itself, and a lack of advanced technology. As a result, several of the most highly publicized murders committed against young female newcomers went unsolved in perpetuity, and they have remained topics of conversation among crime enthusiasts well into the following century. That said, one of these crimes stands above the others as an iconic example of unthinkably grotesque savagery, a psychopathic act equal to any horror movie Hollywood has produced, the January  1947 murder of Elizabeth Short, famously dubbed ‘The Black Dahlia’ by an engrossed press and public. 
  	In 1969, things were looking up for one of Hollywood’s most marketable actresses. After appearing as a model in fashion magazines and having bit parts on shows during the early part of the decade, Sharon Tate was a star in the making. That summer, she was pregnant with her first child by director Roman Polanski, who had just recently become her husband, and a few months earlier, she had just finished filming The Thirteen Chairs, co-starring Orson Welles. Tragically, superstardom would never come, and even today, over 45 years later, most details of Sharon’s life and career are completely overlooked by people who continue to be morbidly curious about her murder at the hands of the Manson Family on August 9, 1969. The murders committed by Charlie Manson’s followers transfixed America, and Tate has been inextricably linked to one of 20th century America’s most notorious criminals.

  Fractured is a compelling illumination of the challenges of acquired disability and the ways in which people with disabilities are sidelined and infantilised.

  Apologise… Hell, No! The Power of an Apology in an Entitled World is a visceral read that explores the ups and down of the apology in a world that's forgetting how to say sorry and mean it. Combining personal memoir, along with some practical advice this book is rich in its openness and evocative enough to challenge, assist and uplift you as it takes both a light-hearted and serious look at the different uses of the apology spanning stoic philosophers, Stick Man, #MeToo, Black Lives Matter, narcissism, entitlement, slavery and WW1 to name but a few. 
  "A deeply personal yet systematic approach to the delicate art of apologizing." — Kirkus Reviews 
   "Unflinching honesty that has translated into something rich and evocative." — Sara Starbuck
