Grace Follows Grit

WINNER OF 2026 EDGAR AWARD FOR BEST FACT CRIME SHORTLISTED FOR CWA'S ALCS GOLD DAGGER FOR NON-FICTION 'Murderland reads like a true crime thriller' SUNDAY TIMES 'Haunting, elegant and fiercely intelligent' OBSERVER 'I highly recommend it' R. F. KUANG, author of KATABASIS, OBSERVER <h4>A terrifying true-crime history of serial killers in the Pacific Northwest and beyond - from the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Prairie Fires</h4> Caroline Fraser grew up in the shadow of Ted Bundy, the most notorious serial killer in the brooding landscape of the Pacific Northwest. But in the 1970s and 80s, Bundy was just one perpetrator amid an uncanny explosion of serial rape and murder across the region. Why so many? Why so nightmarishly gruesome? Why the senseless rise of an epidemic of serial murderers? As Murderland maps the lives of Bundy and his infamous peers - the Green River Killer, the I-5 Killer, the Night Stalker, the Hillside Strangler, Charles Manson - Fraser begins to uncover a deeper mystery and an overlapping pattern of environmental destruction. At ground zero in Ted Bundy's hometown stood one of the most poisonous lead, copper and arsenic smelters in the world. And it was only one among many that dotted the area. Gradually, evidence mounts that the plumes of western smelters not only sickened millions but also warped young minds - potentially spawning a generation of serial killers. 'Lyrically luminescent' NEW YORK TIMES 'Compelling' LONDON REVIEW OF BOOKS 'Breathlessly propulsive' JOYCE CAROL OATES, NEW YORK REVIEW OF BOOKS 'Extraordinarily well-written and genre-defying . . . a moody masterpiece' NEW YORKER 'A powerful plea' FINANCIAL TIMES 'Compelling, beautifully written . . . at heart, a cry of outrage' WASHINGTON POST 'Wonderfully propulsive and hard to put down' ATLANTIC 'Brooding and often brave' BOSTON GLOBE 'Not to be missed' CHICAGO TRIBUNE 'Sharp, incandescent' SEATTLE TIMES 'A great writer can make art of the most grotesque material, and Fraser does' WALL STREET JOURNAL

RAISING FIRE IGNITING RESILIENCE AND BECOMING WHOLE

What if the legend is not the answer-but the gap?Appalachian Disappearances is an investigative nonfiction book about missing persons, mountain folklore, wilderness danger, and the unfinished record behind one of the internet's most durable warnings: don't go alone in Appalachia. Rather than treating every rumor as proof or every official explanation as closure, this book examines the tense space between documented cases, viral fear, practical outdoor risk, and the stories that grow where certainty ends.Across the Great Smoky Mountains, the Appalachian Trail, and the wider Appalachian imagination, unresolved disappearances have become more than case files. Dennis Martin, Trenny Gibson, Polly Melton, Derek Lueking, Gerry Largay, Shenandoah violence, damaged trails, failed searches, and fragmented records all contribute to a larger public question: why do some wilderness cases refuse to go quiet? Is the unease created by terrain, weather, water, poor visibility, and search limits-or by the feeling that the record never tells the whole story?This book follows that question with caution. It separates verified information from allegation, folklore, internet amplification, and unsupported conspiracy claims. It looks at "rules of Appalachia" warnings, mimic stories, wild-man rumors, hidden-predator theories, missing-person data problems, park-search realities, and the cultural habit of turning Appalachia into a haunted stage. The result is not a book that asks readers to believe blindly. It is a book that asks what can be known, what remains unresolved, and why uncertainty is so easily mistaken for evidence.For readers drawn to Appalachian mysteries, wilderness disappearances, missing-person investigations, regional folklore, public-land safety, and conspiracy-adjacent nonfiction, Appalachian Disappearances offers a grounded, atmospheric, and evidence-aware reading experience. It explores how a real landscape becomes a theory, how a safety warning becomes folklore, and how ordinary hazards can feel extraordinary when the official record stops before the human need for answers does.The mountain may not be hiding a monster. But the record has never been complete enough to make the legend go quiet.

Missing Persons, Mountain Folklore, and the Unfinished Record Behind the Appalachian Wilderness Conspiracy

Appalachian Disappearances

For more than two decades, Jimmy Dennedy, a cop's cop, served the people of New York City as a member of the NYPD. First as a uniformed officer working the streets in some of the toughest crime ridden neighborhoods in his home borough of Brooklyn. Then in the NYPD narcotics division, dealing with the worst of the worst who were infesting the streets of the city with the poison that destroyed lives. And finally as a detective in the NYPD-FBI Joint Terrorist Task Force, doing just what the name says, chasing down those whose mission was to destroy the way of life of New Yorkers.When he retired from law enforcement, Dennedy found a different calling. He established a prison ministry. For 25 years, in both Otisville Federal Penitentiary, and Shawangunk State Prison he practiced his ministry touching the soul and conscience of men like those he locked up during his days in the NYPD. For those he counseled with prison time still to be served, he turned their lives around so they could do their time in peace. And for those who had the good fortune of being released, his guidance provided the foundation upon which they built productive, crime free lives.The story of Jimmy's journey from Brooklyn's toughest cop to his prison ministry needed to be shared with the world. Hard Guys Cry tells that story!

Hard Guys Cry

When pressure peaks, the leaders who prevail are not the loudest or the most forceful. They are the most prepared, most precise, and most trusted. Learn how to steady a team, move people from resistance to decisive action, and protect performance when the stakes are highest. In Shaping Chaos, West Point graduate Kyle Vowinkel distills hard-won lessons from the Army and the FBI’s elite Hostage Rescue Team (HRT) and Crisis Negotiation Unit (CNU) into a cohesive leadership operating system. One of only five people in FBI history to serve on both HRT and CNU, Vowinkel takes readers inside missions where failure could be fatal, and translates those disciplines into tools for boardrooms, crises, and high-consequence environments. Shaping Chaos alternates between vivid stories and concrete, repeatable tools These stories drop readers into real-world operations, from the Boston Marathon bombing manhunt to one of the FBI’s most complex kidnapping operations and other critical incidents. Even-numbered chapters then convert those experiences into practices leaders can apply immediately, anchored in Vowinkel’s Prime, Predict, Prevail framework: <ul> <li>Prime: Steady yourself and the team, unify intent, and clarify ownership and decision lanes before time compresses your options.</li> <li>Predict: Read the human, strategic, and emotional terrain, define best, most likely, and worst outcomes, map key levers and pathways, and set triggers and responses before the moment cuts off your options.</li> <li>Prevail: Design clear plans of action, advance through friction with agility, and execute decisively when conditions align.</li> </ul> When the storm arrives, leaders rarely rise to the occasion. They fall to their level of preparation. Shaping Chaos helps you build that foundation now, so you can lead with unflinching clarity, calm courage, and disciplined execution when it matters most.

Leadership Lessons Forged in the FBI's Most Dangerous Operations

My Adventures as a Spy (Cram Edition)

“A stunning job of reporting.”—&nbsp;New York Times Book ReviewUpdated with new content, #1 New York Times bestselling author Jess Walter’s classic work that chronicles the 1992 confrontation at Ruby Ridge between Randy Weaver and federal law enforcement—a tragic eleven-day siege that became a symbol of government overreach and fueled the rise of America’s radical right.On the last hot day of summer in 1992, gunfire cracked over a rocky knob in northern Idaho, just south of the Canadian border. By the next day three people were dead, and a small war was joined, pitting the full might of federal law enforcement against one well-armed family. Drawing on thousands of pages of documents and extensive interviews with members of Randy Weaver’s family, government insiders, and others, Jess Walter traces the paths that led the Weavers to their confrontation with federal agents and led the government to take extreme and unprecedented measures. But as the past thirty years has shown, the standoff at Ruby Ridge would not be an isolated incident.This is the story of what happened there: the tragic and unlikely series of events that destroyed a family, ended FBI careers, and left a nation increasingly attuned to the dangers of unchecked federal power. It is also the story of the racism, religious zealotry, paranoia, fierce hatred of government, and violence that has become increasingly visible across American society.
