Sinossi

“Slade blends crime genres like no other writer. Swastika is a clever whodunit that will challenge the sharpest readers.” —Hellnotes   It began with a corpse with a swastika carved into its forehead. Was it a neo-Nazi hate crime? Or something even more sinister? As bodies mutilated with the emblem of the Third Reich begin to pile up, the investigators of the Special X police team uncover a conspiracy that takes them deep into Germany’s dark history and a secret that lies buried to this day. A secret that some would kill to keep from getting out.    “A perfect blend of historical background, police procedure, and lightning-fast action with a dash of horror. Slade’s skill at intertwining the past and the present is uncanny. Don’t start Swastika unless you can finish it. You won’t want to put it down.” —Crimespree Magazine   “Swastika will please anyone who enjoys a good thriller with a historical bent.” —Quill & Quire   “Readers who relish monsters wearing a human face must read Michael Slade.” —Midwest Book Review   “An action-packed techno-conspiracy thriller.” —Calgary Herald   “Slade knows his trade well, and is able to get inside the head of a grizzled cop and a psychotic neo-Nazi with equal skill.” —Montreal FFWD Weekly

    Title: The Diary of a Madman 
    Author: Guy de Maupassant 
    Narrator: Jonathan Dunne 
    Original Publication: 1885 
    Public Domain: Yes 
    Series Placement: Number 14 in the Timeless Terrors series 
    Description: 
    The Diary of a Madman by Guy de Maupassant is a chilling study of psychological horror and the fragility of sanity. First published in 1885, it presents the private writings of a respected judge whose outward civility hides a dark descent into obsession and cruelty. 
    Told through the intimate form of diary entries, the story reveals the gradual unraveling of a mind — a voice both rational and terrifyingly unhinged. Maupassant strips away the veneer of normalcy to expose the horrors lurking within the human psyche. 
    This recording, narrated by Amazon bestselling horror author Jonathan Dunne, captures the eerie intimacy and creeping dread that defines Maupassant’s tale. While the text is in the public domain, this performance is an original work and copyright © 2025 Jonathan Dunne. 
    This audiobook is part of Timeless Terrors, a dedicated series bringing classic horror back to life — stories from the great masters of the macabre, narrated afresh to haunt a new generation. 
    Listeners should be prepared for an unsettling exploration of madness, hidden violence, and the shadows that dwell in ordinary men.

    The Case of Charles Dexter Ward

    H. P. Lovecraft

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.  
    Fascinated by history, young Charles Dexter Ward begins to delve into the life and activities of his ancestor, Joseph Curwen, who had a reputation as a researcher of dark secrets and a sorcerer. In his research, he goes a step too far, endangering not only his own life and sanity but also the lives of others. 
    The brevity of the above plot outline does not convey the true wealth of details in Lovecraft's longest work of fiction. The case of Charles Dexter Ward astonishes with an abundance of details, especially concerning the history of Providence (some Lovecraft scholars even argue that the main character is not Charles Dexter Ward but the meticulously depicted hometown of the author). The idea for the work had been on the writer's mind for a year. Initially, Lovecraft wanted to write a novel about Salem, but in September 1925, after reading a historical treatise on Providence titled "Providence in Colonial Times," his imagination was so ignited that he changed the setting to his hometown. The main theme of "The Case of Charles Dexter Ward" is a reworking of the subject from "The Tomb" (which Lovecraft later revisits in "The Thing on the Doorstep").
