Brian Stack was the chief prison officer working on the IRA wing of Portlaoise Prison in 1983. He was also a fan of amateur boxing, and had travelled to see a match in Dublin in March of that year. After the match, he was shot outside the venue by an IRA gunman, leaving him paralysed and brain damaged. Brian survived the attack but succumbed to his injuries within 18 months, leaving a wife and three young sons. Austin Stack was 14 when his father passed away, but he has never forgotten him nor has he ever given up hope of bringing his murderers to justice.

Everyone knows where they were when Ray Houghton outfoxed the Italian goalkeeper in the 1994 World Cup finals. Every television in the country was tuned in to the match, and The Heights Bar in Loughinisland, Co. Down was no exception. But two miles down the road, three men with no interest in Ireland's footballing progress were planning a deadly massacre. Shortly after half-time they burst through the door of the bar and opened fire, spraying bullets indiscriminately. As they fled the scene, six innocent men lay dead or dying.

In broad daylight, Herbert Mullin calmly placed a rifle on the roof of his car, took aim at Fred Perez, and pulled the trigger without flinching. The fatal shot rang out, causing panic as a witness frantically called the police. Compelled by the voices in his head, Mullins believed that human sacrifice would prevent a massive earthquake from striking California. No one was safe. Over a span of four months, Mullins brutally killed men, women, children, and a priest, without any hint of remorse.

Henry Avery of Devon pillaged a fortune from a Mughal ship off the coast of India and then vanished into thin air—and into legend. More ballads, plays, biographies and books were written about Avery’s adventures than any other pirate. His contemporaries crowned him "the pirate king" for pulling off the richest heist in pirate history and escaping with his head intact (unlike Blackbeard and his infamous Flying Gang). Avery was now the most wanted criminal on earth. To the authorities, Avery was the enemy of all mankind. To the people he was a hero.

In The Einstein Vendetta, Thomas Harding recounts the story of an unthinkable crime, one that unspools to reveal Italy’s brutal wartime history – its fall to fascism, antisemitism and bitter partisanship – and a family’s search for justice. Vividly told, drawing on previously unpublished archival sources and first-hand accounts, Harding threads history and detective story to build an unquiet, haunting testimony.

¿De dónde procedía ese hedor? ¿A qué se debía el silencio sepulcral que rodeaba el número 594 de la calle Sauces, en Pioz? Siguiendo el rastro del insoportable olor, el 17 de septiembre del 2016 la Guardia Civil descubrió su origen: se trataba de los cuatro cadáveres de una familia brasileña metidos en seis bolsas de basura. Llevaban muertos más de un mes.

En julio del 2011, los canónigos de la catedral de Santiago de Compostela se dieron cuenta de que faltaba el Códice Calixtino, el manuscrito iluminado del siglo XII considerado como la primera guía de viajes del mundo y referente para millones de peregrinos cuando realizan el Camino de Santiago.

La perturbadora crónica de uno de los sucesos más estremecedores de los últimos tiempos, plasmado por Carles Porta. Le llamaban padre porque creían que aquel era el precio a pagar por tener una familia. En un pequeño pueblo de Lleida, vivían David Donet y los adolescentes que tenía en acogida. Allí se descubrieron decenas de imágenes y vídeos que demostraban que el responsable de los menores había abusado sexualmente de ellos durante 17 años. Carles Porta reconstruye un relato de los sucesos que, lejos de caer en el morbo, revelan cómo el horror puede convertirse en normalidad.

Los villanos, monstruos y almas perdidas que desfilan por estas páginas harán que la aguja de nuestro medidor imaginario de bondad y maldad oscile de blanco a negro.

Prefazione di Liliana Segre. "Domani spariranno i testimoni e io racconterò a chi non può credere, che tutto ciò è successo. A noi spetta memoria. Sarà per sempre il nostro Kaddish". "Noi figli dei sopravvissuti alle camere a gas di Birkenau non siamo normali. Lo sa bene la mia amata moglie e lo sanno i miei figli, e forse le mogli di tutti i figli della Shoah e i loro amati figli. Come prima le nostre madri o padri. Noi non abbiamo ascoltato solo parole dolci e tenere dai nostri padri, non solo favole ci è capitato di ascoltare, ma il silenzio impastato di lacrime e urla".

"La gente ci descrive come fossimo dei mostri, delle persone senza scrupoli, come se ammazzassimo la gente così a caso. Non è vero. Sappiamo farlo quando serve. Io so essere cattivo, quando serve. Se non serve faccio la persona normale." Queste parole, pronunciate da un boss calabrese e intercettate dalla Direzione distrettuale antimafia di Milano, sono rappresentative della strategia che da almeno sessant'anni le mafie mettono in campo per infiltrarsi in maniera sempre più capillare nel tessuto socio-economico del nostro Paese."

You'll never look at your neighbor the same way, you'll wonder about your best friend, and you'll imagine what your coworker does behind closed doors. Deviant sexual behavior is part of our human psyche, and as offensive as it may seem to some people, it happens in your community. Usually, the private world of people's lives remains undisclosed, but those secrets will come alive as you explore these real-life events.

From the first call to a Portland detective about a missing woman to the police’s growing certainty that she had been murdered, from the heroic efforts to locate the body to the flight from Maine of their chief suspect, and from the painstaking work of collecting evidence and building a case to the struggles over jurisdictional questions to the twists and turns of the eventual trial, Finding Amy is a dramatic story of brutal murder and exemplary police work with the human beings and emotion behind the shield.

Poacher Wars is an intense, well-written account about a true wildlife warrior and his fight against the criminals who plunder our natural resources. As a Pennsylvania Game Warden, Wasserman patrolled four hundred square miles of rugged mountain terrain where he investigated thousands of game law violations and arrested many violent career poachers.

El asesinato como forma de ganarse la vida es la pregunta fundamental de esta crónica. La investigación aborda la figura del sicario —con sus días siempre al borde del abismo— como ineluctable resultado de la descomposición social y de la incapacidad del Estado para evitar que sigan proliferando.

In 2018, Russian exile Sergei Skripal and his daughter were nearly killed in an audacious poisoning attempt in Salisbury, England. Soon, the identity of one of the suspects was revealed: he was a Russian spy. This huge investigative coup wasn’t pulled off by an intelligence agency or a traditional news outlet. Instead, the scoop came from Bellingcat, the open-source investigative team that is redefining the way we think about news, politics, and the digital future. We Are Bellingcat tells the inspiring story of how a college dropout pioneered a new category of reporting.
