Book Description
‘Serial killers experience the power over life and death as omnipotence … When I interrogate a serial killer, I dive into the abyss of his soul.’ From 1994 to 2000, when South Africa was a young democracy, the country was stalked by a succession of brutal serial killers. Psychologist Micki Pistorius became the first profiler for the South African Police Service, playing a vital role in identifying and interrogating these killers, as well as training detectives nationally and in other countries. She broke ground with her theory on the origin of serial killers and is considered a trailblazer in her field. Catch Me a Killer details the cases she worked on – from the Station Strangler and the Phoenix Cane Killer to Boetie Boer and the Saloon Killer. The book also features legendary detectives such as Piet Byleveld and Suiker Britz, as well as the FBI’s Robert Ressler. Released alongside a major TV series based on the book, this new edition of Catch Me a Killer includes a new chapter and up-to-date information about some of the cases, such as the parole of Norman Afzal Simons in 2023. This is essential reading for all true crime aficionados.

Book Description
Commander JD Rawlings and the Fleet have defeated two of the six alien races making up the League of Confederated Planets which is attempting to annihilate humanity for unknown reasons. In the process, millions of human slaves have been freed and now need new homes. The Fleet may need a new home, too, as relationships with the government on Hanos are not going well. Still, all in all, things are looking up for humanity at the moment. Then Rawlings is baited into a trap and kidnapped by some sort of humanoid many meters tall and floating several meters above the ground, glowing within a sphere of golden light like some kind of god-like or angelic being. After years of sensory deprivation and torture sessions, Rawlings manages to escape and return to the Marines. Now, he must find the necessary clues and follow that vague and dangerous trail to find home worlds of the alien races of the LCP. What he discovers along that path is a plot so monstrous as to boggle his imagination. But Rawlings is a Marine, and now that he knows who the real enemy truly is, all the rules go outside. It will take everything he is, everything he has at his command . . . and even a few things of which he never even dreamed. The question is, will even that be enough to save humanity?

Book Description
Days before the outbreak of WWII in Europe, amidst the magnificent mansions and rolling lawns of Newport, Rhode Island, a young woman is murdered. A local man is arrested, but Detective Josh Tyler is convinced that the killer is Heinrich Kraal, visiting guest speaker at the 'American First Committee' symposium and rising star of Hitler's Reich. In an unlikely alliance with enigmatic lawyer Kristen von Nagel, Tyler discovers that Kraal is linked to similar murders on previous U.S. visits. However, any chance of pursuing a case against Kraal disappears following Pearl Harbour, when Germany declares war on the USA. Three and a half years later, with Russian troops pouring into Berlin, Kraal contacts the Americans and agrees to travel to the US to stand trial for the murder. Dispatched as the arresting officer, Tyler arrives in the ravaged German capital and finds that Kraal is a Russian prisoner. And his problems are just beginning.
