  You can choose your house… but you can't choose your neighbors. 
  This is the haunting true story of how one couple found themselves the targets of a relentless campaign of intimidation, harassment and violence – orchestrated by their unhinged neighbours. 
  Amanda and Richard packed up their lives to live debt free and realise their dream of living in the countryside. Little did they know that their peaceful existence would soon be destroyed when unassuming couple Cassie and Francis moved in. 
  What follows is a sinister story of charm, manipulation, threats and violence. A truly unbelievable tale. 
  Perfect for readers of true crime, domestic thrillers, and chilling real-life stories of obsession, harassment, and the dark side of human nature. 
  A gripping work of non-fiction steeped in psychology and interpersonal relations, STALKED exposes a chilling con of deceptions and hoaxes that turns neighbourly charm into calculated terror. As the intimidation escalates, Amanda Hutton lays bare how manipulation thrives behind closed doors—and how quickly a dream life can be shattered.

  I chose violence.
   
  
   
  Not because I had to.
   
  Because I wanted to.
   
  
   
  I didn’t grow up in the streets.
   
  I grew up on a wealthy island outside Stockholm.
   
  
   
  And I still chose this life.
   
  
   
  This is the true story of how I became part of one of Europe’s most feared football firms and what it actually felt like to be there.
   
  
   
  Not written by a journalist.
   
  Not based on rumours.
   
  
   
  I lived it.
   
  
   
  I took on a leading role within an AIK sub-group connected to the main firm, moving through a world that stretches across Sweden and into Europe.
   
  
   
  Sweden’s hooligan scene is not what people think.
   
  
   
  It’s not chaos.
   
  It’s not random.
   
  
   
  It’s organised.
   
  Disciplined.
   
  Planned.
   
  
   
  Fights arranged in forests.
   
  Groups meeting far from the public eye.
   
  
   
  No weapons. No excuses.
   
  
   
  Just men walking towards each other, knowing exactly what’s about to happen.
   
  
   
  There’s adrenaline.
   
  There’s pride.
   
  
   
  Moments that feel bigger than anything else.
   
  
   
  And then there’s everything that comes with it.
   
  
   
  This is about brotherhood, identity, and what it does to you over time.
   
  
   
  This is Swedish hooliganism from the inside.
   
  
   
  If you’re interested in true crime, football culture, or real stories without filters, this is for you.

  Nozipho Tshabalala is a high-performing, excellence-driven, successful black woman. Being in control of everything in her life was crucial to her survival 
  and success. For the most part, it had always served her well – until it didn’t. In this captivating and deeply personal memoir, conversation strategist 
  Nozipho invites you into her world – one shaped by political violence, professional triumphs on global stages and the intimate battles with loss that 
  would test her most fundamental beliefs. Now in her 40s, she has realised that what she needed most to survive may not be what she needs to thrive. 
  After the Fires is a call to reclaim the narrative amid life’s unexpected turns. It honours the complexity of womanhood while celebrating the possibility of 
  becoming exactly who you were meant to be, even when that person looks nothing like what you imagined. With vulnerability and wisdom, Nozipho demonstrates how surrender becomes not an act of defeat but a pathway to freedom. Her story reminds us that sometimes our greatest strength lies not in holding tighter but in opening our hands to release what no longer serves us.
