Während die Welt in Anarchie versinkt, bedeutet das Zuhause alles ... Drei Wochen nach dem Zusammenbruch des nationalen Stromnetzes herrscht das Chaos in den USA. Die Lebensmittelvorräte sind aufgebraucht. Der Treibstoff geht zur Neige. Und der düstere, brutale Winter ist unerbittlich. Fall Creek hat einen brüchigen Friedenspakt geschlossen, aber der Preis für die Sicherheit ist höher, als manche bereit sind zu zahlen. Die Stadt ist ein Pulverfass, das nur darauf wartet, zu explodieren.

Eine Welt ohne Strom wird dunkel und tödlich... Liam und Hannah setzen ihre gefährliche Reise fort, doch jeder ihrer Schritte wird von einem tödlichen Widersacher verfolgt. Werden sie, gejagt und erschöpft, die Kraft finden, um nach Hause zurückzukehren? In Fall Creek kämpft Noah darum, seinen Sohn und seine Freunde zu beschützen. Und als der Stadt die Lebensmittel und der Treibstoff ausgehen und die Kälte immer brutaler wird, sind sie gezwungen, Kompromisse einzugehen, die sie in noch größere Gefahr bringen könnten.

He was supposed to protect them. Instead, he became their worst nightmare. In the industrial wasteland of Angarsk, Siberia, police officer Mikhail Popkov spent his days investigating crimes and his nights committing them. For over two decades, this trusted public servant led a double life that would make him one of history's most prolific serial killers, claiming at least 83 victims before his shocking arrest in 2012. The Werewolf's Shadow takes listeners deep inside one of the most disturbing criminal cases in modern Russian history.

The cells were supposed to die. Instead, they changed everything. When Henrietta Lacks walked into Johns Hopkins Hospital in 1951 complaining of vaginal bleeding, neither she nor her doctors could have imagined the medical revolution about to unfold. The cervical cancer that would claim her life at age 31 harbored an extraordinary secret: her cells could live forever. Without her knowledge or consent, those cells would reshape modern medicine. Dubbed "HeLa" cells, Henrietta's tissue became the cornerstone of countless medical breakthroughs.

In 1949, George Orwell warned us about doublethink—the ability to hold two contradictory beliefs and accept both as true. He thought he was writing fiction. Every morning, millions of Americans wake up and seamlessly accept impossible contradictions: politicians who simultaneously champion law and order while breaking laws, media outlets that claim objectivity while pushing agendas, and social movements that fight intolerance with intolerance. We've become masters of doublethink without even realizing it.

Deep in Louisiana's marshlands, where mist rises from ancient waters and Spanish moss whispers secrets in the wind, mysterious lights have danced for millennia. The Cajuns call them fifolet. Scientists call them marsh gas combustion. But for the people who've lived alongside these phenomena for generations, they're something far more profound—messengers from the spirit world, guides through treacherous waters, and the eternal call of home. LIGHTS IN THE DARKNESS explores the fascinating intersection where folklore meets physics, where ancestral wisdom encounters modern science.

Sheriff Rebecca West knows she’s being watched. She’s seen the same car parked along the road—always at a distance, always watching. Even more concerning, the man with damning evidence against the senator tied to her parents’ deaths claims he’s being followed too.

When Sheriff Rebecca West answers a late-night dispatch about a fatal car accident on the bridge, she fears the worst. The victim isn't just any driver—he’s her informant. The man who risked everything to send her a thumb drive exposing the monster who shattered her life. He was on his way to Shadow Island, seeking her protection.

In the ancient Albanian town of Sarandë, where sea winds carry secrets and old bunkers echo with forgotten wars, two unlikely heroes rise. Jackie, a scrappy Jack Russell rescued by the Big Fella and the Very Nice Lady, and Lupin, a loyal hound-Alsatian mix with a quiet strength, become protectors of the city's stray cats and dogs, guardians of the voiceless.

In her new role with the Bureau’s Violent Crime Unit, Special Agent Amelia Storm is ready to focus on new types of crimes—ones that aren’t mob related. She didn’t, however, expect her first case to take her to rural Illinois, where the tranquil waters of Lake Henry have been guarding a grim secret. Three corpses...and that’s just the beginning. Among the deceased are two recent victims, a young couple last seen camping in the nearby wilderness preserve. A third, a grim echo from years past, is a set of bones picked clean and left to whisper secrets of an older, darker crime.

On the heels of receiving evidence hinting at the motive behind her father’s murder, Sheriff Rebecca West confronts a horrific crime scene. A pregnant woman has been brutally attacked in her home, her unborn baby ripped from her womb. But this is more than assault. It’s an abduction of the worst kind. Now, a newborn is in the hands of a monster. Determined to follow every lead, Rebecca locks down the island, launching an all-out search for the missing infant. But as the mother fights for her life, Rebecca uncovers chilling evidence of a man obsessed with the young mother.

Special Agent Amelia Storm, a seasoned FBI veteran, thought stepping away from the Organized Crime Unit and its mafia entanglements would lead to less complex and dangerous cases. She was wrong. Now in the Violent Crimes Division, Amelia is haunted by a chilling pattern that mirrors mob brutality. Murder as a message. How else can she explain why this serial killer murders everyone in the home but leaves the victim alive...and horrifically disfigured by acid? Four victims in two years. All women with dark-brown hair. All social media influencers with a substantial following.

Murderers never take a break, so when the body of a twenty-nine-year-old middle school gym teacher is discovered, Special Agents Amelia Storm and Zane Palmer are called in to help the Violent Crimes Division with one of their most puzzling cases to date. Because this isn’t just a random crime... It’s far more bizarre. The latest victim is the fifth to be found dumped in a rural area south of Chicago. The victims have little in common, except one thing...their internal organs have been removed with a precision that only a surgeon could achieve.
