The life is that of Philip Bowman and we see his formative experiences as a young naval officer in battles off Okinawa, his career as a book editor in New York after the Second World War, his trips to the great European cities – from publishing parties in London, to romantic holidays in Paris.

All That is Wicked
Rulloff was a brilliant yet utterly amoral murderer - some have called him a 'Victorian-era Hannibal Lecter' - whose crimes spanned decades, but by 1871 he was captured, chained in a cell - a psychopath holding court while curious 19th-century 'mindhunters' got to work. From alienists (early psychiatrists who tried to analyse the source of his madness) to neurologists (who wanted to dissect his brain) to phrenologists (who analysed the bumps on his head to determine his character), each one thought he held the key to understanding the essential question: is evil born or made? Expanding on her hit podcast, Tenfold More Wicked, acclaimed crime historian Kate Winkler Dawson draws on hundreds of source materials and never-before-shared historical documents to present one of the first glimpses into the mind of a serial killer - a century before the term was coined - through the scientists whose work would come to influence criminal justice for decades to come.

With the lives of her family and the fate of her soul on the line, Odessa Kusa must battle man and god alike in pursuit of salvation--and revenge. The village of Kalaro is dying. Since the coming of the Gray, food is scarce, plague is everywhere, and babies enter the world choking and dying. Rot has taken over the village houses that stand dilapidated and abandoned. In a bid to save his people, Odessa Kusa's father, Omari, plans to kill one of the Low Gods--a grave sin thought to be nigh impossible for a mortal man--and Odessa is thrilled to be brought along on the hunt. But the ancient boar god Egende is not so easily hunted. When Odessa is injured, her desperate father fills her body with cursed blood magic, damning her soul to Matara's comforting embrace. The terrified villagers cast her out of their community into a cruel, pitiless world. Banished and wild with grief and rage, Odessa sets out in search of a shaman to purge her of the tainted blood and assure her salvation. But
