  Monsters Among Us: Serial Killers of Russia is a chilling, meticulously researched true crime exploration of the darkest criminal minds in modern Russian history. From notorious predators like Andrei Chikatilo to the state-shielded brutality of Yevgeny Chuplinsky, this book unearths the brutal stories of killers who thrived in the shadows of secrecy and denial. Drawing on public records, legal documents, and journalistic accounts, author Edward Halcroft weaves together each case with psychological depth and narrative intensity. Gripping and disturbing in equal measure, this audiobook exposes a side of Russia rarely acknowledged—where monsters walked unnoticed among everyday people. A must-listen for fans of dark true crime, criminal psychology, and unsolved mysteries.

  Forgotten Authors The - Men -...

  Throughout the long centuries of human history is the want, and the need, to share information, to exchange ideas and for that knowledge and experience, for curiosity and learning, to be the basis of a civil society. 
  In literature the ambition is much narrower.  In order to be known, to be popular, you had to be published.  And for that people had to know you existed and your ideas worth reading.  Obviously for most of humanity’s time people couldn’t read and texts couldn’t be published in any great number. 
  In the 15th Century Gutenberg’s printing press began the revolution to address the second and by the 19th century had gathered pace with startling speed and mass distribution.  Education for the many was brought in to help people understand more of their world and, with new skills, how to have a better place within it.  Now, if the powers that owned the presses and means of distribution agreed an audience would now be able to avail themselves of your ideas, your printed words.  
  Sadly, in the thirst for the new, the recent and the past fell from sight, relegated to dark corners and dusty shelves.   
  But the printed word is rarely without someone, somewhere busying themselves through piles of papers and books rediscovering what a good story is, whatever its age. 
  In this volume we offer up a small selection of those talents whose time has now come again.

  Audio Snaps Volume One - 100...

  Audio Snaps is a series of 100 minute audiobooks packed with fun stories from my books about my life in the music business. Volume One features stories from You Don’t Have to Say You Love Me, a book I wrote in 1983 about my time in London in the Sixties when, amongst other things, I was managing the Yardbirds and wrote the lyrics to the song, You Don’t Have to Say You Love Me. Reading it back now, it seems extraordinarily frank, more so than I might be nowadays, and sometimes rather rude too. When it came out, the music press loathed the book, I think because it trivialised the music industry, whereas the tabloids loved it. Nowadays, they’ve all come to see it as a classic of its time and the Observer newspaper has it at Number Eleven on its list of “The 50 Greatest Music Books Ever.” In the Independent, Charles Shaar Murray called my books, “ The cold print equivalent of spending an evening with a world-class raconteur.”  With Audio Snaps, you get the raconteur without wading through the cold print.

  From co-founder Elyse Oleksak, discover how Bantam Bagels, the company featured on ABC’s Shark Tank, the Today Show, and Oprah’s Favorite Things, was built! A gut-wrenching, relatable, inspirational memoir offering lessons in how to start, market and grow a business in today’s America. 
  Elyse and her husband and business partner, Nick, seemingly have done it all. Together, they faced the notorious Sharks of ABC’s Shark Tank, sold millions of bagels on live TV, invented multiple successful lines of frozen breakfast items, and built their company into a recognized national brand. 
  But they have also faced challenge. In pursuit of their dream, Elyse and Nick spent seven days a week, 24 hours a day, bustling through financial struggles, rejections, pregnancies, births, miscarriages, crisscrossing the country, fighting tooth and nail for the survival of their company. And nearly every time they made a step towards success it was coupled by an equally sized calamity or failure. 
  Through candor, humor, and raw emotion, Elyse shares her story of pursuing the American Dream. It is the story of the highs, the lows and the sacrifices required to achieve success. Through Elyse’s memoir, you will learn about the vital roles of relationships, hard work, risk, and adaptation when starting a business, and that ultimately failure isn’t the end for an entrepreneur – rather it’s the fuel that keeps the machine churning. 
  Praise: 
  “I have loved Elyse and Nick from day one and our experiences together has enriched and touched my life in many ways. Her book is a great and helpful read for anyone looking to start a business, pursue a dream, or seek success on their own terms.” - Lori Greiner, Shark from ABC’s Shark Tank, Entrepreneur, Inventor, Producer, Humanitarian
