Webb Jr. W: Unjust Gaggle of Gavels

Unjust Gaggle of Gavels

Volume 1

THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLERThe world's criminals earn trillions every year. They keep almost all of it. Every effort to stop them has failed. Why? Join Oliver Bullough through the looking glass, voyaging through the dark heart of the global economy: where flows of dirty banknotes, designer goods and baby eels prop up illicit networks spanning from Miami to Shanghai - via, strangely, North Oxfordshire. Cryptocurrencies flow through ledgers that would look familiar to a fifteenth-century Florentine banker. Casinos, lottery tickets and government ignorance all power the merry-go-round of dirty money. And it all works brilliantly. Better than ever. There has never been a better time to be a criminal. It's time that changed.

The Secret Life of Dirty Money

The Girl In Cell A

Schlei-Krimi

Der ehemalige Vereinsvorstand des Segelclubs Horst Heinemann wird vermisst, ein Unbekannter stellt einer zurückgezogen lebenden Frau nach und ein Urlauber stirbt auf dem Ausflugsdampfer Schlei-Diva. Als jedoch klar wird, dass der Tote gezielt durch Drohnen umgebracht und der Vorzeige-Rektor Heinemann mit Schmiergeldzahlungen und Übergriffen an Schülerinnen in Verbindung steht, zeigt sich ein komplexes Geflecht aus Einmischungen des Geheimdienstes, Entführungen und perfiden Täuschungsmanövern. Die Spur führt zu einer alten Wasserstoffbombe aus dem Zweiten Weltkrieg - und mit einem Mal wirkt die Erpressung der USA ungleich realer.
Können Theissen und sein Team die Welle der Erlösung noch aufhalten oder überschwemmt sie die gesamte Welt?

Aus der Schleswig-Holsteinischen Provinz agiert der internationale Geheimbund Unda Salutis und erpresst die Welt mit einer Wasserstoffbombe.

Die Welle der Erlösung versteckt sich in der Schlei-Stadt Kappeln, und bedroht die Vereinigten Staaten mit einer Wasserstoffbombe. 

Der Geheimund Unda Salutis versteckt sich im pittoresken Kappeln, erpresst die Vereinigten Staaten mit einer Wasserstoffbombe und hält die Region in Atem.

Theissens 4. Fall

Die Schlei-Verschwörung

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.

The Murder of Shoeshine Boy Emanuel Jaques

LA ANTOLOGÍA DEFINITIVA VEINTICINCO AÑOS DEL MEJOR PERIODISMO DE LEILA GUERRIERO Una edición ampliada y revisada con los textos imprescindibles de la gran cronista en lengua española y autora de La llamada, libro del año en Babelia. &gt;Veinticinco años han pasado desde la crónica más temprana de todas las que contiene esta antología del mejor periodismo de Leila Guerriero: un cuarto de siglo con los textos imprescindibles de la gran cronista en lengua española, quien ha revisado y ampliado este libro para la ocasión. Frutos extraños es una lección magistral de escritura en la que la autora nos descubre la cara más sensible, vigorosa y palpitante de su oficio. Aquí encontramos muchas de sus crónicas célebres: la historia de una mujer capaz de asesinar a tres amigas con cianuro, la de otra que mató a su hija minutos después de parirla o la de un mago manco. El volumen incluye también algunas de sus brillantes reflexiones sobre el acto de escribir e incorpora perfiles de figuras como Ricardo Darín o María Kodama, además de relatos de episodios históricos recientes que sin duda marcarán una época, como las últimas elecciones presidenciales en Argentina. Este compendio confirma a Leila Guerriero como la gran defensora de que no hay nada «más sexy, feroz, desopilante, ambiguo, tétrico o hermoso que la realidad'. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION THE DEFINITIVE ANTHOLOGY: TWENTY-FIVE YEARS OF LEILA GUERRIERO'S FINEST JOURNALISM An expanded and revised edition featuring the essential texts of the foremost Spanish-language chronicler and author of The Call, named Book of the Year by Babelia. &gt;Twenty-five years have passed since the earliest chronicle included in this anthology of Leila Guerriero's best journalism: a quarter century of essential texts by the leading Spanish-language chronicler, who has revised and expanded this volume for the occasion. Strange Fruits is a master class in writing in which the author reveals the most sensitive, vigorous, and vibrant side of her craft. Here we find many of her celebrated chronicles: the story of a woman capable of murdering three friends with cyanide; another who killed her daughter minutes after giving birth; and that of a one-armed magician. The volume also includes some of her brilliant reflections on the act of writing and incorporates profiles of figures such as Ricardo Darín and María Kodama, as well as accounts of recent historical events that will undoubtedly define an era, such as Argentina's most recent presidential elections. This compendium confirms Leila Guerriero as the foremost champion of the idea that there is nothing "sexier, fiercer, more outrageous, more ambiguous, more terrifying, or more beautiful than reality."

Frutos extraños Edición definitiva

She shot her husband on a crowded Melbourne street.

Witnesses heard her shout, "I did it!"

Then she pleaded not guilty.

The case ignites the city. Newspapers circle. Society whispers. And inside the courtroom, two of Melbourne's fiercest legal minds go to war: a principled prosecutor chasing justice, and a flamboyant defence showman who plays to the gallery.

At the centre stands Kathleen Fraser: volatile, defiant, and impossible to ignore. Is she a cold-blooded killer? A woman dismissed as "hysterical" by her time? Or someone pushed beyond endurance in a world designed to silence her?

The Dangerous Wife resurrects a true crime murder trial that once gripped Australia. Now reconstructed in full from the original evidence. Court transcripts, depositions, private letters, shorthand notes, and hundreds of newspaper reports bring the testimony, contradictions, and turning points to life with the pace of a legal thriller.

What you'll get as a reader:

-A public shooting, a shocking confession, and a not-guilty plea that changes everything.
-A courtroom battle where strategy, reputation, and performance can decide a verdict.
-Evidence you can weigh for yourself, drawn from primary sources and contemporary reporting.

A vivid look at how class, gender, and public opinion shaped justice in Australia. Gripping, unsettling, and meticulously sourced, this is true crime for readers who want the law in action and a legal showdown where the stakes are life and death.

"A gripping true crime story told with the insight of a forensic legal mind." -Roy Maloy, true crime history

M. J. Checketts is the author of The Dangerous Wife: A True Legal Thriller, a meticulously researched and compelling narrative that resurrects one of Australia's most sensational courtroom battles. Drawing on his deep legal experience as a former senior partner of a major Australian law firm, he brings unmatched insight into the human drama and procedural intricacies of real-world justice.

Trained in England and based in Melbourne, Checketts spent his legal career advising on complex matters and now serves on several professional services boards. His writing blends crisp narrative pacing with the analytical precision of a seasoned lawyer, capturing both the emotional stakes and forensic detail that define high-profile trials. The Dangerous Wife is his first work of narrative non-fiction and reflects his commitment to telling true legal stories that engage, inform, and challenge readers.

A True Legal Thriller

The Dangerous Wife

What is worse than a child predator? 

Twins who will stop at nothing and the clock is ticking.

A single CyberTip.
A digital trail.
Two brothers hiding a secret.

When Detective Trevor Kane is assigned an Internet Crimes Against Children case, he expects another difficult investigation. What he doesn't expect is where the evidence will lead.

Following usernames, IP addresses, online accounts, search warrants, electronic records, and forensic evidence, Kane begins piecing together a disturbing puzzle. Every new discovery reveals another layer of deception, forcing investigators to confront a horrifying reality: the people responsible may be much closer to their victims than anyone imagined.

But finding the evidence is only the beginning.

Kane must identify victims, uncover the truth, navigate the complexities of a multi-jurisdictional investigation, and build a case capable of putting the perpetrators behind bars. As the investigation unfolds, he sees firsthand how predators manipulate trust, exploit technology, and hide behind seemingly ordinary lives.

Call Us Daddy takes readers inside the investigation from the perspective of the detective who worked the case. It reveals the painstaking process of following a digital trail, uncovering hidden evidence, interviewing victims, and building a criminal case against those who prey on children.

This isn't television crime drama.

There are no scripted clues, convenient breakthroughs, or fictional endings.

This is a true story.

And behind every file, every piece of evidence, and every investigative decision are real children whose lives were forever changed.
Call Us Daddy is a disturbing journey into the world of online child exploitation and the investigators who work behind the scenes to expose it.

Some cases stay with you long after the investigation ends.
This is one of them.

Some cases are solved.
Some cases change you.
This case does both.

Although Call Us Daddy addresses disturbing crimes against children, the narrative does not include gratuitously graphic descriptions of sexual acts or explicit sexual content. The difficult subject matter is presented with restraint and purpose, focusing on the investigation, the evidence, the victims, and the realities of child exploitation rather than sensationalizing the crimes. The book also contains no profanity.

A Shocking True Crime Story

Call Us Daddy

America's Hometown has a dark side.
And the truth has been hidden in plain sight.

Hannibal, Missouri, is known around the world as the boyhood home of Mark Twain, a picturesque river town celebrated for its charm, history, and sense of American innocence. But beneath the postcards, museums, and storybook streets lies a far more unsettling legacy.

True Crime in America's Hometown uncovers the real crimes that shaped Hannibal in silence: brutal murders, unexplained deaths, disappearances that haunted families for generations, and scandals quietly erased from public memory. These are not legends or ghost stories. They are documented cases drawn from court records, newspaper archives, police reports, and firsthand accounts-many of which have never been fully examined until now.

From crimes that shocked the community to cases that were never solved, this book exposes how violence, deception, and injustice found their way into one of America's most beloved towns. Each chapter pulls the reader deeper into the shadows, revealing how tightly a community can hold its secrets, and what happens when the truth finally surfaces.

Written with the pace of modern true crime and the depth of historical investigation, True Crime in America's Hometown challenges the idea that evil only exists elsewhere. It proves that even the most charming places can harbor darkness-and that sometimes the most disturbing crimes are the ones closest to home.
Once you know these stories, you'll never see Hannibal the same way again.
