One survivor's inside-out argument that domestic violence demands more than justice —it requires healing. In this memoir, Alli O'Malley tells the parts that usually get left out: not just the leaving, but the ordinary terror that preceded it, and the long, uncertain work of rebuilding. Drawing on her journey from survivor to CEO of a nationally recognized intimate partner violence organization, O'Malley challenges the way we've been taught to think about domestic abuse: as a criminal problem best solved through prosecution and punishment.

Twelve true crime stories of murder and mayhem. Fifth audiobook of the True Crime Case Histories Series (2020). When researching these stories, I commonly use actual police reports, court documents, and first-hand descriptions. Some of the details can be disconcerting. I do my best to not leave out any of the details in my audiobooks, no matter how depraved they may be. My intent is not to shock, but to show precisely how twisted the mind of a killer can be. The stories in this volume are shocking and disturbing, but they’re also true. These things really do happen in the world.
