Historias de crímenes reales

Antique Hunter's Series

The third novel in the “delightful, page-turning” (Tom Ryan, USA TODAY bestselling author) Antique Hunter Series finds Freya, Aunt Carole, and friends searching for a missing colleague in picturesque Scotland. Hot on the heels of an art forger, a member of the Lockwood Antique Hunter’s Agency disappears while investigating an isolated castle deep in Scottish countryside. Freya and Aunt Carole race to her last known location and arrive in the wintry, snow-covered Scottish Borders. At the castle, they discover that a murdered laird in the vegetable garden and his priceless collection of silverware has been stolen. Local police believe Freya’s missing team member was involved with the robbery and murder...but where is she now? As a snowstorm descends on the castle, Freya and Carole call in back-up to help uncover what happened that fateful night. As each question is met with more mystery, the clock is ticking to find their friend and the murderer before they are cut off from the outside world. Another delightfully gripping and endearing mystery, the Antique Hunter’s Series provides “great characters, great story, and you’re always eager for the next one” (Ian Moore, author of Death and Croissants).

Paper Cut

Ein Netzwerk der Vertuschung. Eine Registratur, die es nicht geben dürfte. Und eine Spur, die bis ins Herz der katholischen Kirche führt.

Was als lokale Recherche zu einzelnen Missbrauchsfällen an Kindern beginnt, entwickelt sich zu einer Jagd rund um die Welt und einer Suche nach geheimen Briefen des Vatikans. Vom Ruhrgebiet, nach Frankreich, Italien, Portugal, in die USA, nach Kolumbien und Australien. Mit jeder neuen Akte verdichtet sich der Verdacht: Im Herzen des Vatikans existiert eine einzigartige Registratur, die den Weg in ein Archiv weist, das Informationen zu klerikalen Missbrauchstätern weltweit sammelt und verwahrt. Einige verurteilt, viele unbekannt, ihre Verantwortung oft vertuscht. 

Es ist ein System, das Täterschutz und Machterhalt über das Leid von Millionen Opfern sexuellen Missbrauchs stellt. In seinem Zentrum steht eine der einflussreichsten Figuren der Kirche: der deutsche Kardinal Joseph Ratzinger, später Papst Benedikt XVI. 

"Akten des Missbrauchs: Die Geschichte eines organisierten Verbrechens im Vatikan" ist ein journalistischer Krimi, der ein unfassbares Geheimarchiv enthüllt. Eine Recherche über Schuld, Macht und Missbrauch.

Die Geschichte eines organisierten Verbrechens im Vatikan

Akten des Missbrauchs

Melanie, a scent-specific trailing Bloodhound, worked alongside Jim Pacetti with the Cook County Sheriff's Police Department for 12 remarkable years.
Together, they conducted thousands of searches, from locating lost children to tracking dangerous fugitives, including serial offenders. 
Every call carried urgency. Every trail carried hope.
Melanie was named in honor of Melanie Beltran, a young girl whose tragic death deeply impacted the community. 
Throughout his career, Jim witnessed the power of partnership between handler and dog, a bond built on trust, discipline, instinct, and unwavering loyalty. 
More than that, Melanie became a beloved member of Jim's family. 
"The Nose Knows...Melanie: Police Bloodhound" offers a rare inside look at the discipline, tactical precision, and unwavering trust required in canine law enforcement, where every deployment carries risk, and every successful track can mean the difference between life and death.

The Nose Knows...Melanie, Police Bloodhound

The Antique Hunter's Death on the Red Sea

Can a Tony Daniels, a detective from the idyllic town of Normal, Illinois, cross the blue line of police solidarity to help exonerate the man he and his squad convicted of Normal's first...and only...murder of 1993?

At the beginning of the 1993 fall semester at Illinois State University, someone murders senior journalism student Jennifer Lockmiller in her apartment. Tony Daniels, a career police officer and Marine who served for years during the Vietnam War, is named lead detective in Jennifer's case.

Tony, and the squad, first put Alan Beaman, Jennifer's ex-boyfriend, in the hot seat of suspects. Then others crawl out of the woodwork of drugs, sex, and jealousy, and Tony believes they're looking at a complicated mess. Normal Police Department brass disagree, and Tony is pulled off the case. Though Tony keeps saying, "Look at others," the squad only has eyes for Beaman. 

In 1995, a McLean County jury convicts Alan of murder and sentences him to 50 years in prison. Post-trial, Tony stands at a crossroads. Can he fight his own demons from a helllish war and a rough childhood to help Alan and those who believe his conviction should be overturned?

"Thin Line," a braided true crime/creative memoir, travels through the tumultuous Vietnam War years and the 90s grunge and internet eras to examine issues of domestic violence, substance abuse, and a quest for truth and justice that just might lead to redemption

A Detective's Reckoning with the Dark Side of the Justice System

Keine Gnade - Deutsche Serienmörder

The Murder That Changed a City.

The tragic story of Shoeshine Boy Emanuel Jaques has been the basis of novels, short stories, a documentary, a play, songs, a children's book on the dangers of abduction, and dozens of essays, but never a True Crime book...until now.

The torture and killing of Emanuel over a 12-hour period above a seedy Toronto body rub parlour outraged citizens who demanded change to Toronto's Yonge Street strip, which by 1977 resembled New York's grimy 42nd Street with its many X-rated movie theatres, massage parlours, pornographic bookstores, and prostitutes.

Through a series of original interviews, archival research, and previously unpublished documents, author Robert J. Hoshowsky recreates in detail Emanuel's brutal death, the hunt for the boy's killers, the shocking trial and press coverage, the controversial Yonge Street clean-up, and what remains one of the most sensational True Crime cases in Canadian history.
