New Releases by Gregg Olsen

Behind the headlines of a sensational 1921 trial, the devastating truth about a wife who killed--a haunting true-crime story by Gregg Olsen, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of If You Tell, written with his daughter Morgan Olsen. On August 3, 1932, a train pulled out of Denver carrying the most talked-about woman in America. In a private car, under armed guard, sat a small, composed figure. Lyda Trueblood was going home to prison. A decade earlier, in frontier Idaho, Lyda had been everything a wife should be: beautiful, charming, an excellent cook. Men fell for her easily. They also died easily--poisoned by arsenic she extracted from ordinary flypaper and stirred into their meals. Her brother-in-law. Her husband. Her baby daughter. Then another husband. And another. Six victims in five years. The 1921 trial made her a sensation-- "Lady Bluebeard," the papers called her. But who was the woman behind the headlines? What turned a Missouri farmer''s daughter into a methodical killer? Now, on this train carrying her back after a daring prison escape, Lyda finally agreed to talk. What she revealed--and what she didn''t--would haunt those who heard it. Drawing on court transcripts, prison records, and Lyda''s own chilling statements, for the first time, Gregg and Morgan Olsen go beyond the lurid mythology to explore how an ordinary wife became an extraordinary killer.

I flera år, bakom de stängda dörrarna till deras gård i Raymond, Washington, utsatte deras sadistiska mamma, Shelly, sina flickor för ofattbara övergrepp, förnedring och både fysisk och psykisk tortyr. Genom allt detta utvecklade Nikki, Sami och Tori ett trotsigt band som gjorde dem mycket mindre sårbara än vad Shelly föreställt sig.

Basta um barulho (como o desenrolar brusco de uma fita adesiva) ou um cheiro (como o da lixívia), para que revivam memórias do mais absoluto terror. E nesses momentos, mesmo na segurança das suas casas, sem querer regressam ao passado, à infância. Durante anos, e sem que ninguém soubesse, foram sujeitas a abusos inimagináveis por parte da mãe. As humilhações, a degradação e a tortura que sofreram criou entre as irmãs (filhas de pais diferentes) um elo que ficou para a vida. E que lhes permitiu não só sobreviver, como libertarem-se do jugo materno. Hoje estão vivas, casadas, felizes. E contaram a sua história ao escritor Gregg Olsen. Não Contes a Ninguém é um relato extremamente bem documentado sobre o que se passou naquela casa. Lê-se como um perverso thriller, mais assustador ainda por sabermos que tudo aquilo aconteceu. Narrativa de cortar a respiração, que nos revela o mal em estado puro, conta-nos ainda outra história: de resistência, de amor, de laços forjados nas mais terríveis circunstâncias. As irmãs, agora adultas, criaram as suas famílias, tiveram filhos e dão-lhes o amor e o carinho que nunca conheceram em crianças.

New York Times bestselling authors Gregg Olsen and Rebecca Morris investigate the 2009 death of an Amish wife and mother found murdered in her own bed. At just 30 years old, with dark-blonde hair and freckles, Barbara Weaver was as pretty as the women depicted on the covers of her favorite "bonnet" stories - romance novels set in Amish America. Barbara had everything she''d ever wanted: five beautiful children, a home, her faith, and a husband named Eli. But while Barbara was happy to live as the Amish have for centuries - without modern conveniences, Eli was tempted by technology: cell phones, the Internet, and sexting. Online he called himself "Amish Stud" and found no shortage of "English" women looking for love and sex. Twice he left Barbara and their children, was shunned, begged for forgiveness, and had been welcomed back to the church. Barb Raber was raised Amish, but is now a Conservative Mennonite. She drove Eli to appointments in her car, and she gave him what he wanted when he wanted: a cell phone, a laptop, rides to his favorite fishing and hunting places, and, most importantly, sex. When Eli starts asking people to kill his wife for him, Barb offers to help. One night, just after Eli had hitched a ride with a group of men to go fishing in the hours before dawn, Barb Raber entered the Weaver house and shot Barbara Weaver in the chest at close range. It was only the third murder in hundreds of years of Amish life in America, and it fell to Edna Boyle, a young assistant prosecutor to seek justice for Barbara Weaver.
