Summary

The London Medicine is the sequel to Funny Little Games in which celebrity composer Michael Maybrick, well-connected in royal and masonic circles, was exposed at the notorious Whitechapel serial killer JACK THE RIPPER, revealed by deciphering his self-styled funny little games.

The personal vendetta against prostitutes was over and Michael Maybrick was free to continue furthering his ambitions for fame and fortune, but a persistent problem had yet to be resolved. There remained a nagging belief that his brother James suspected his nefarious activities, as perhaps did his wife Florence, despised by Michael as an adulteress.

There could only be one solution. The London Medicine.
Available since: 10/31/2023.

    Charles Parrott is proud of his work. Not everyone can be as successful as he is at robbing banks. His job as a bootlegger in 1958 gives him the skills behind the wheel to shake anyone who dares to try to catch him. He studies each robbery, using logistics, alibies and disguises. He loves to trick and fool the FBI, and it becomes a decade long game to him. It’s as if he was born for this profession. His love of racing and being a rodeo rider tells you what you need to know about what drives him.  
    His wife, Reba Sue, is thought of as a straight arrow. Everyone thinks she’s a saint, but she isn’t. When his upstanding family gets dragged into his insane world, they will all stand by him. 
    Most people in the Adair and McCurtain Counties of Oklahoma know that he’s robbing banks, but his generosity to the down and out brings protection and alibis that are solid. He’s their very own “Robin Hood,” and they are charmed by him. 
    He has a rotating group of partners, taken from his circle of rodeo riders, former bootlegging buddies and childhood friends. Most of them are loyal. Some don’t last long. It’s not a job for the faint hearted. 
    An Oklahoma FBI agent once said that he thought Parrott was one of the best bank robbers that had ever lived. By all accounts, his story should have assured his place among notorious bank robbers in American history, but he was left out in the cold. Now his story can be told, as only his daughter can tell it.

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
    Empire of Rum – The Unofficial Economy of Early Australia is a gripping journey through the colony’s most intoxicating secret: that rum, not coin, built Australia. 
    In the fledgling settlement of New South Wales, alcohol was more than a drink - it was money, power, and survival. From the notorious Rum Corps to the only successful military coup in Australian history, this audiobook brings to life the corruption, rebellion and everyday struggles that flowed through the barrels of rum. 
    But the story doesn’t stop in the past. Linking colonial rum trading to modern Australia, this powerful work shows how alcohol still fuels crime, family breakdown, and an overwhelmed justice system. 
    Part history, part social critique, Empire of Rum pulls no punches in exposing how alcohol became and remains a currency of control. 
    Perfect for listeners of Australian history, true crime, and social justice narratives.
