Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the nonfiction tradition of John Berendt and Erik Larson, the author of the #1 NYT bestseller The Lost City of the Monkey God presents a gripping account of crime and punishment in the lush hills surrounding Florence as he seeks to uncover one of the most infamous figures in Italian history. In 2000, Douglas Preston fulfilled a dream to move his family to Italy. Then he discovered that the olive grove in front of their 14th century farmhouse had been the scene of the most infamous double-murders in Italian history, committed by a serial killer known as the Monster of Florence. Preston, intrigued, meets Italian investigative journalist Mario Spezi to learn more. This is the true story of their search for--and identification of--the man they believe committed the crimes, and their chilling interview with him. And then, in a strange twist of fate, Preston and Spezi themselves become targets of the police investigation. Preston has his phone tapped, is interrogated, and told to leave the country. Spezi fares worse: he is thrown into Italy's grim Capanne prison, accused of being the Monster of Florence himself. Like one of Preston's thrillers, The Monster of Florence, tells a remarkable and harrowing story involving murder, mutilation, and suicide-and at the center of it, Preston and Spezi, caught in a bizarre prosecutorial vendetta.

Download or read book Unspeakable written by George B Peters and published by . This book was released on 2021-05-11 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I am a pedophile who has kept myself sexually sober of ever acting out on my sexual desires for over 50 years, despite being given many easy opportunities to do so. I have never been accepting of this cursed orientation and have spent my lifetime seeking out and learning methods to keep it contained and controlled for obvious reasons. To find answers and to seek help for myself, I studied and worked in the field of psychology when I was younger and truly could find very few answers anywhere. My search for answers has inspired me to write this book. The first part of this book is a memoir of my life and journey into discovering just what it takes to stay clean and sexually sober of acting out as an abusive pedophile. The second part of the book is a complete and comprehensive outline and description of the self help and life changing actions that have proven to work for me. These techniques can be utilized by others to solidly maintain their own sexual sobriety and to build up a life that is fulfilling and worth living vs. suicidal depression. What I offer is a self help process for pedophiles who are trying to exercise their will power and who are desiring to find answers and some anonymous and safe help for themselves in a world where very little of this can easily and safely to be found, anywhere. This problematic situation is most likely due to the unspeakable nature of the subject of pedophilia for those suffering from it who would like to communicate their need for help.This book is a preventative way forward for pedophiles seeking answers and help in controlling their obsessive, compulsive and sexually addictive desires-what I call the monster within. For the greater good of us all, I am choosing to speak the unspeakable.Unspeakable can also be a resource for mental health professionals and law enforcement who interact with sex offenders and also for academics interested in the study and treatment of psychological issues stemming from pedophilia.

Download or read book There s a Monster in My House written by D E-Collen and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2019-04-22 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As children, we all believe in monsters, but when we grow up, we tell ourselves they were never real, and that we only imagined them. But there are true monsters in the world. Disguising themselves as ordinary people, they take out their anger and frustration on children to make themselves feel strong and powerful. So how can we tell the difference between actual people and the monsters? This book tells a story of one family that welcomes someone into their home, thinking they are good and kind. The monster quickly gives itself away though, with its strange behaviour, which makes the child feel very uncomfortable. Not respecting someone’s personal space or privacy, encouraging children to keep secrets from others ... there are lots of warning signs to look out for, and this story describes them, teaching children exactly what to do if they find a monster in their house, or anywhere else, or even suspect that someone they have come into contact with might be one. And it reminds parents, teachers, and anyone one else who cares about protecting children to always listen, believe, and do whatever they can to help. Note to parents and guardians: Though very important, this book contains subject matter that young children might find disturbing or frightening. Please exercise caution and sensitivity when introducing to younger children.

Finally, a new Parker Tyler is on the scene. Yep. Mr. Fox is the real thing.' -- John Waters, New York Times This Young Monster is a hallucinatory celebration of artists who raise hell, transform their bodies, anger their elders and show their audience dark, disturbing things.

And how does the concept of the monster irradiate our thinking about queerness, disability, children and adolescents?

Together, they can find the strength they need to battle their respective demons. They can learn they don’t have to fight alone, but it will take trust. It will take letting down long erected barriers, and it will take love. If they fail, Paris will be destroyed by the creatures that threaten it when the swarm hatches and decimates the city.
