Dead By Sunset - Ann Rule

DEAD BY SUNSET is the extraordinary cautionary tale of Bradly Morris Cunningham, a real-estate entrepreneur whose misogyny and rampant egocentricity wrecked the lives of a succession of women. Over a period of years Cunningham duped, seduced, abused and harassed his way through a string of destructive relationships, preying not on the weak, but on women who were distinguished by their striking good looks and intelligence. The scars he inflicted on his victims varied: sometimes emotional, sometimes psychological, sometimes physical. More often than not, they suffered all three. And in the tragic case of Cheryl Keeton, Cunningham''s fourth wife, her association with him ended in her brutal and mysterious death. Making use of direct access to all the principal players in this incredible story, including Cunningham himself, Ann Rule explores both the causes and effects of this deadly charmer''s behaviour in vivid and dramatic terms. Horrifying, compelling, enthralling, perhaps even life-saving to female readers, DEAD BY SUNSET proves that justice delayed is not justice denied.

Worth More Dead - Ann Rule

In this white-knuckled entry in Ann Rule’s Crime Files, the #1 New York Times bestselling author presents the true story of a man who betrayed his family with heinous crimes and other tales of passion and greed. Former Marine sergeant and judo instructor Roland Pitre Jr. claimed it was all an elaborate plan to win back his wife’s love—it wasn’t supposed to end with her dead body in the trunk of a car. It would be nearly twenty years before he admitted to hiring someone to kill his estranged wife, but the alleged confession was as shocking and convoluted as the crime itself. The “prolific and talented” (Publishers Weekly) Ann Rule dives into this shocking true crime with her signature compassion and insight. She reveals how Pitre managed to avoid conviction and the two generations of detectives who worked doggedly for justice. Worth More Dead also features several more nonfiction tales from one of the world’s “top-notch true crime writers” (Booklist).

Ted Bundy, vrah po mém boku - Ann Rule - audiokniha

Audiokniha: Kompletní portrét nejbrutálnějšího sériového vraha Ameriky. Kniha spisovatelky Ann Rule, Ted Bundy, vrah po mém boku, je naprosto jedinečná ve své ohromující intimitě a popírá stejně děsivě jako v době svého vzniku naši představu, že bychom přece samozřejmě poznali, kdyby mezi námi žilo monstrum, pracovalo vedle nás a tvářilo se, že je jedním z nás. S mrazením stupňujícím se s každou další stránkou sledujeme, jak si autorka začala postupně uvědomovat, že její citlivý spolupracovník z krizové linky Ted Bundy je ve skutečnosti jedním z nejděsivějších sériových vrahů Ameriky. Bundy se doznal k zabití nejméně šestatřicet mladých žen po celých Spojených státech a za tři z těchto vražd byl nakonec odsouzen k smrti na elektrickém křesle. Autorka čerpá mimo jiné i ze své korespondence s Bundym, jež trvala až do doby krátce před jeho popravou. Daří se jí udržovat v rovnováze svůj hluboce osobní pohled na věc a svou roli kriminální reportérky při honu po brutálním sériovém vrahovi – geniálním a charismatickém Bundym, o němž si myslela, že ho zná. Touto nezapomenutelnou kronikou Bundyho života, jeho případu a jejich vzájemného vztahu, Ann Rule změnila směřování literárního žánru true crime.

Zabiják od Zelené řeky - Ann Rule

Monstrum Gary Ridgway – dvacetileté pátrání po nejaktivnějším vrahovi Ameriky V tomto provokativním a překvapujícím příběhu investigativní žurnalistiky se Ann Rule, legendární spisovatelka žánru true crime, ponořila do bezmála dvacetiletého honu za nejaktivnějším a nejděsivějším sériovým vrahem Ameriky, Garym Ridgwayem. V roce 1982 byla nedaleko břehu washingtonské Zelené řeky nalezena mrtvola mladé dívky. Detektivové později zjistili, že tělo patřilo Wendy Coffieldové, prostitutce, jejímž rajónem byla nedaleká dálnice. V tu chvíli ještě neměl nikdo ani tušení, že se krutou smrtí šestnáctileté dívky roztáčí nekonečná série vražd, které budou děsit okolí Seattlu téměř dvě desetiletí. Na základě důkladného výzkumu nás Ann Rule strhujícím způsobem vtahuje do pátrání po Zabijákovi od Zelené řeky, děsivém přízraku, který obsesivně zabíjel mladé ženy a dlouhá léta unikal místní policii i FBI. Od hledání pomoci u již vězněného sériového vraha Teda Bundyho až po hrozivý okamžik, kdy Ann Rule došlo, že se zdánlivě nepolapitelný škrtič účastnil jejích přednášek, je Zabiják od Zelené řeky napínavé a nezapomenutelné vyprávění o brutálních a bezcitných zločinech. Gary Ridgway vykonával svou "kariéru" stroje na zabíjení dvacet let. Jeho děsivá schopnost vylákat své oběti na smrt a ukrýt jejich těla ho činila mnohem nebezpečnějším než kteréhokoli jiného sériového vraha. Mrazivý pohled na nejtemnější ...

Smoke, Mirrors, and Murder - Ann Rule

From #1 New York Times bestselling author and true crime icon Ann Rule, the cases in this collection grapple with murder, false identity, and much more. In some murder cases, the truth behind the most tragic of crimes crystallizes with relative ease. Not so with these fascinating accounts drawn from the personal files of Ann Rule, America’s #1 bestselling true crime writer.

The Grateful Dead by Jim Marshall - Gans David, Jim Marshall, Amelia Davis

One of the greatest bands of all time and one of the greatest music photographers in history meet in this incredible visual archive featuring exclusive never-before-seen photos.Jim Marshall took thousands of photos of the Grateful Dead throughout their career—from Woodstock to the last free concert on Haight Street and beyond. Marshall’s magnificent images chronicle the band’s trajectory as hairstyles changed, relationships came and went, and the music evolved into the sound that would become beloved by generations to come. Marshall’s instinctive eye matched the Dead’s improvisational style, and he was welcomed into its family as he immersed himself in San Francisco’s counterculture scene throughout the 1960s and ’70s. He documented casual domestic scenes and transcendent concerts alike, offering a nuanced and intimate portrait of the band. The striking images in this book—a third of which have never been published—are printed in the rich, high-contrast tones that Marshall favored. They include glimpses of remarkable moments like the Newport Pop Festival, Woodstock, and the Human Be-In. Quotes from contemporaries, collaborators, and members of the wider Dead community bring the images alive, while longer essays contextualize this photographic archive.

Sylvia Plath Poems Chosen by Carol Ann Duffy - Sylvia Plathová

Sylvia Plath was one of the defining voices of the twentieth century, and one of the most appealing: few other poets have introduced as many new readers to poetry. The poems in this fresh and inviting edition were chosen by Poet Laureate Carol Ann Duffy.In my selection, which is roughly chronological to shadow her progress, I have tried to walk through the landscape of Sylvia Plath''s poetry as though for the first time, fifty years older than I was when she died. In doing so I have experienced afresh the almost physical excitement I felt when I first read this bold, brilliant, brave poet who changed the world of poetry for us all. - Carol Ann Duffy

Queen Anne - Anne Somerset

Her personal life riven by passion, illness and intrigue, Queen Anne presided over some of the most momentous events in British history. Like Antonia Fraser’s life of Marie Antoinette or Amanda Foreman’s ‘The Duchess’, ‘Queen Anne’ is historical biography at its best.In 1702, fourteen years after she helped oust her father from his throne and deprived her newborn half-brother of his birthright, Queen Anne inherited the crowns of England and Scotland.Childless, despite seventeen pregnancies that had all either ended in failure or produced heartrendingly short-lived children, in some respects she was a pitiable figure. But against all expectation she proved Britain’s most successful Stuart ruler.Her reign was marked by many triumphs, including union with Scotland and glorious victories in war against France. It was also marked by controversy: Anne’s close relationship with Sarah, the outspoken wife of the Duke of Marlborough, turned to rancor with Sarah’s startling claim of the Queen’s lesbian infatuation with another lady-in-waiting, Abigail Masham.Traditionally depicted as a weak ruler dominated by female favourites and haunted by remorse at having deposed her father, Queen Anne emerges as a woman whose unshakeable commitment to duty enabled her to overcome private tragedy and painful disabilities, and set her kingdom ...

Has Sandra been granted a wish she didn’t know she made? Before their holiday is over, some of the family may learn too much about the secret that keeps the island alive. FLAME TREE PRESS is the new fiction imprint of Flame Tree Publishing.

Earth Prayers - Carol Ann Duffy DBE

‘Carol Ann Duffy is the most humane and accessible poet of our time’ - GuardianThe wonders of nature have inspired poets for centuries, stretching far back beyond the Romantics. Beautifully curated by Carol Ann Duffy, the poems in Earth Prayers span widely across time, but in their moments of joy, empathy or difference, even the earliest poems reveal a concern for the welfare of our planet. Duffy brings these early eco-poems into conversation with contemporary voices writing into the environmental crisis, and through this dialogue sounds a clarion call to cherish and defend the planet while we can.From John Clare to Lucille Clifton to Kathleen Jamie, the poets collected in Earth Prayers speak at times as stewards and ambassadors of the earth, at others in anger at those who would exploit nature, or to question their own part in its decline. And the earth speaks back: in Stephanie Pruitt’s ‘Mississippi Gardens’ the soil bears witness to the worst of human history, while in ‘Poem’ Jorie Graham relays the earth’s plea: ‘remember me’.To encounter nature, these poems tell us, is to be humbled, to have our own smallness magnified by the presence of the sublime.
