Histoire
Innocent Blood is the true story of Charles Hatcher and his life of crime - a powerful and blood-chilling glimpse into the darkness between sanity and madness. It also chronicles a justice system gone wrong. Throughout his criminal career, Hatcher was able to fool dozens of psychiatrists, who repeatedly failed to identify him as a multiple murderer. Hatcher's astonishing skill was not just in his ability to murder and escape imprisonment. He became an expert at manipulating the criminal justice system.

Started out good...
Évalué le: 2018-11-02
And yet AOTHER one that started out with my interest. In the middle of the book, my interest waned.
I just couldn't finish it. I've tried to listen to authors that I hadn't heard of, or the crimes on which they write about. I'm just going to stick with Rule & Phelps., as I've struck out 3 times now with my true crime choices.
The narration on this book is weird. At times, his tone doesnt match the subject on which he's reading, almost a lightheartedness.
It started out as a clear, consise story and somewhere in the middle it gets muddled.
In my opinion, not worth it.

Histoire
When the bodies of three teenagers were found on the shores of Lake Waco, Texas, in July 1982, even seasoned lawmen were taken aback by the savage mutilation and degradation to which they had been subjected. Yet only 52 days after the gruesome triple-murder was discovered, frustrated authorities suspended the case indefinitely. Patrol Sergeant Truman Simons, who had been called to the scene that night, saw the carnage firsthand - and vowed to find the ferocious killer or killers. He soon became a man with a mission, risking his career and his family's safety in search of evidence.

Well.. I tried. Several times in fact.
The summary sounded like this would be an interesting listen.
There are a few key reasons why I just didn't like this book.
#1 Narrator - the way this is narrated is just horrible. All the key players sound like they are ALL the same person. I felt like I was listening to a story read by the old Visine commercials guy.
#2 Story - the timelines ...just aren't defined in a solid way & if the narrarator is reading the book the way its written, then its just not a well written story.
I struggled to listen and give a chance to this book. I wish I could get a refund, but at this point, I've returned 2-3 books in a row and I'm scared Audible will flag me or something.
Either way...this book is a loss.
Don't waste your time or your money .

I was on the fence about this one, but finished it. Some parts were very hard to listen to. Very well written and narrated. I had honestly never heard his name before and without this book, probably would've thought the whole story a myth or the figment of someone's psychotic imagination.

Histoire
The police in Jersey County, Illinois, accepted Paula Sims' story of a masked kidnapper who snatched her baby girl, Lorelei, from her bassinet. Three years later, her second newborn daughter suffered an identical fate - and this time the police were unable to stop searching until they had discovered the whole horrifying truth. This is the full terrifying story of twisted sexuality and hate seething below the surface of a seemingly normal family and of the massive investigation and nerve-shattering trial that made the unthinkable a reality.

I had never heard of this story, as in the 80's I was quite young. Listening to this account of this event was heartbreaking, for the two lost little girls.
At times, I was in disbelief as I listened to the mothers rendition of how her babies were "stolen".
I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this book. The court proceedings were very well detailed. A MUST listen!

Histoire
Why would a woman marry a serial killer? Because she cannot refuse.... Kateryn Parr, a 30-year-old widow in a secret affair with a new lover, has no choice when a man old enough to be her father, who has buried four wives - King Henry VIII - commands her to marry him. Kateryn has no doubt about the danger she faces: the previous queen lasted 16 months, the one before barely half a year.

Love Phillipa Gregory
Évalué le: 2018-09-23
I absolutely love Phillipa Gregory books. The way that history and these women coincide, and her imagination on how conversations may have went is enthralling. As a history buff, especially when it comes to women of the past, her books completely satisfy and entertain!

Great 2nd Book

This second installment was just as good as the first. So far, I've loved the two books in this series. Very entertaining!

In The Cadaver King and the Country Dentist, Radley Balko and Tucker Carrington write a true story of Southern Gothic horror - of two innocent men wrongly convicted of vicious crimes and the legally condoned failures that allowed it to happen. Balko and Carrington will shine a light on the institutional and professional failures that allowed this tragic, astonishing story to happen, identify where it may have happened elsewhere, and show how to prevent it from happening again.

This book will amaze at the unfairness to the system in Mississippi. In the beginning of the book, it was said that "you will want to put the book down and shake your head at this story" ..not quoted exactly, but along those lines. Quite right. Many times I stood, mouth open, listening in horror to the MANY injustices this book brings to light.
A MUST READ!
