    Death in the City of Light is the gripping, true story of a brutal serial killer who unleashed his own reign of terror in Nazi-Occupied Paris. As decapitated heads and dismembered body parts surfaced in the Seine, Commissaire Georges-Victor Massu, head of the Brigade Criminelle, was tasked with tracking down the elusive murderer in a twilight world of Gestapo, gangsters, resistance fighters, pimps, prostitutes, spies, and other shadowy figures of the Parisian underworld. The main suspect was Dr. Marcel Petiot, a handsome, charming physician with remarkable charisma.

    Even the reader's voice added to this historical gem. I would expect Hollywood to jump on this story. Make the investment of 1 credit for this audio book. Well worth it and very entertaining!

    Why we think it’s a great listen: Seabiscuit was a runaway success, and Hillenbrand’s done it again with another true-life account about beating unbelievable odds. On a May afternoon in 1943, an Army Air Forces bomber crashed into the Pacific Ocean and disappeared, leaving only a spray of debris and a slick of oil, gasoline, and blood. Then, on the ocean surface, a face appeared.....

    Story

    Once I started listening, I could not stop. A truly inspiring story that after you hear it, will make you never want to complain again about any of your daily challenges. A great story about a great man and real American hero as well as a WW2 veteran.

    Since its publication in 1960, William L. Shirer’s monumental study of Hitler’s German empire has been widely acclaimed as the definitive record of the 20th century’s blackest hours. The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich offers an unparalleled and thrillingly told examination of how Adolf Hitler nearly succeeded in conquering the world. With millions of copies in print around the globe, it has attained the status of a vital and enduring classic.

    Story

    Easily the best and most detailed history of the Nazi era. I thought I knew a ton about the Third Reich! Truth is I learned much more after listening to this intense and well written (read) audio book. The Narration was perfect as well. Invest in this book!!!! Easily the best investment you will make if you love history and war history.
