Speak Her Name - Stories from a...

M.D. Mary Jumbelic

When a family friend died unexpectedly, Dr. Mary Jumbelic was pulled into the investigation-and uncovered the true cause of death. This woman was one of hundreds uanble to move, unable to speak, laying on autopsy tables due to violent crimes. Mary uses her unique voice to speak for these victims and seek justice. Throughout her career as a medical examiner, Mary saw female bodies that had been sexually violated, battered, stabbed, and shot. Their corpses were dismembered. Some were buried in shallow graves, while others meticulously hidden. A majority of these deaths had been caused by someone the women knew-just like her friend. As a woman in a man's world, Mary spent her life honing her forensic skills. Through this work, she came to terms with events in her own life. Experiencing motherhood in juxtaposition with her job provided constant reminders of her two lives: one with the living, and one with the dead. Personal and professional experiences are interwoven in this tapestry of memoir. 
Real Women. True stories. 
We bear witness and use the truth to effect change. Together, we speak her name.

Listening to the voice of the heart

Elian Bittencourt

Listening to the Voice of the Heart is an invitation to revisit your self-image, values, and to recognize your hidden desires, your secret dreams. At the same time, it brings the romanticism of one who inhabits their own dream and recognizes their weaknesses without dwelling in them.
It is an appeal to sensitivity, whether in artistic creation and appreciation, or in attention to affection and the beauty of everyday life.
I hope that by diving into these thought pills each reader can revisit themselves and be provoked to listen to the voice of their own heart, searching within themselves the necessary motivations to recover the right to dream.
Written by Elian Bittencourt, a musician who composes or a composer who writes, this work understands and accepts contradiction as an inseparable part of human existence. As such, it can be a visit to the inner world of a Brazilian artist living in Portugal, as well as a personal compass and a reminder of important values that are learned throughout a lifetime.

Return to Eden: The Wonderfilled...

Elegy

"Return to Eden" speaks of a pilgrimage. 
A journey from the horrors and pain, inhumanity and fear of the now to what once was. That place from whence we were exiled to wander through a million wildernesses seeking redemption, seeking forgiveness, seeking love, and unable to endure any longer, where we wish to return. 
To go home. 
This is the pilgrimage of Suzanne and Jackie.

The Serial Killer's Apprentice -...

Katherine Ramsland, Tracy Ullman

Elmer Wayne Henley, Jr. was only fourteen when he first became entangled with serial rapist and murderer Dean Corll in 1971. Fellow Houston, Texas, teenager David Brooks had already been ensnared by the charming older man, bribed with cash to help lure boys to Corll's home. Corll baited Henley with the same deal he'd given Brooks: $200 for each boy they could bring him. 
 
 
 
Henley didn't understand the full extent of what he had signed up for at first. But once he started, Corll convinced him that he had crossed the line of no return and had to not only procure boys but help kill them and dispose of the bodies, as well. When Henley first took a life, he felt doomed. By the time he was seventeen, he'd helped with multiple murders and believed he'd be killed, too. But on August 8, 1973, he picked up a gun and shot Corll. When he turned himself in, Henley showed police where he and Brooks had buried Corll's victims in mass graves. 
 
 
 
The Serial Killer's Apprentice tells the story of Corll and his accomplices in its fullest form to date. It also explores the concept of "mur-dar" (the predator's instinct for exploitable kids), current neuroscience about adolescent brain vulnerabilities, the role of compartmentalization, the dynamic of a murder apprenticeship, and how tales like Henley's can aid with early intervention.
