    • A true crime thriller that became front-page news
    • ''Before Michelle McNamara came along, not many people knew about the Golden State Killer, who raped and murdered victims in their homes in the 1970s and ’80s—and then vanished without a trace. Much has been made about whether McNamara’s obsessively researched book helped catch the suspect decades later. (She also predicted DNA technology would beat him, though she didn’t live to see it.) But don’t listen to decide whether McNamara “solved” the case. Listen to be in the company of her singular mind, for which Gabra Zackman’s narration is the ideal conduit. Listen because this audiobook is on the very short list of true crime masterpieces.'' —Kat, Audible Editor

But it is hearing the victims recount their stories and their fight for survival that helps one understand the heinous nature of these crimes—and the strength of these women in confronting and defeating true evil.'' —Maggie, Audible Editor

The only good thing about finishing this one is the three more equally unpauseable Cormoran Strike thrillers that are ready to listen to and get lost in.'' —Catherine, Audible Editor

    • A Stephen King gateway listen
    • ''Stephen King's Duma Key was my gateway listen; the first audiobook that had me jonesing to get back and press play. Sure, some themes, at first mention, may sound recognizable to the regular King fan, but there's an energy and connection to the material that feels totally fresh; especially as King—who famously suffered his own near-death accident years prior—explores the relationship between healing and creativity. John Slattery (the magnetic Mad Men actor) absolutely nails the tone here, capturing the desperation and volatility of Freemantle’s fragile mind, while also making him a kind of matter-of-fact everyman who quickly becomes a stand-in for your lifelong friend. And when your friend is up against supernatural terror, how can you not listen?'' —Doug, Audible Editor

    • The most fun horror listen of…ever, probably?
    • ''Just like scrunchies and platform boots, Stephen King is hotter than ever again. Having never read (or even watched!) the classic that started it all, I recently cozied up with his 1973 novelette Carrie, knowing that it was about a high school outcast who gets her revenge at the prom, but otherwise going in completely blind. You guys, it taps into so many current trends that I can hardly count them all: magic! vengeance! female rage! menstruation!. And the best reason to listen to this Audible book ASAP is that it’s narrated by Sissy Spacek herself. Don’t sleep on this one!'' —Rachel, Audible Editor

    • The True Story of a Young Woman Who Vanished from the Streets of Tokyo - and the Evil That Swallowed Her Up

    • Narrated by: Simon Vance
    • Length: 13 hrs and 8 mins

    • 4 out of 5 stars 2,978 ratings
    • In Cold Blood with a Tokyo setting
    • ''This book draws you in with a creepy cover and creepier title, but it’s also one of the best true crime titles ever written. Tokyo-based reporter Richard Lloyd Parry covered the disappearance of Lucie Blackman, a young British woman working as a hostess in the city, in real time. His commitment to representing her full humanity is matched only by his dogged examination of every angle of the case, from the timeline and procedural details to Japan’s complicated female-companionship industry. If that sounds dry, it isn’t: The villain is as wicked as they come, and Simon Vance’s narration is, true to form, flawless.'' —Kat, Audible Editor

    • Good forensic fun
    • ''I first tried this title after hearing it recommended by Georgia on My Favorite Murder. And if you’re like me, and the first thing you do when checking into a hotel room is throw on the somehow always-on classic series Forensic Files, this will be your jam. True crime intrigue meets victim justice and good old-fashioned science in the origin story of NecroSearch International. '' —Sam, Audible Editor

    • A spooky yearly must-listen
    • ''When I first listened to this classic last year, I truly couldn’t believe that I had gone so long without tit in my life. With its atmospheric prose, mysterious characters, and a slow revealing plot that's haunting in the purest sense of the word, We Have Always Lived in the Castle has quickly found its way onto my list of top 10 favorite novels (and listens—Bernadette Dunne's performance brilliantly evokes Jackson's melancholy, ominous tone).

    • Smart, snappy, cozy series with sublime narration
    • ''Barbara Rosenblat is one of my favorite narrators. Nowhere does she elevate a story more than with The Unexpected Mrs. Polifax. Dorothy Gilman started the series in 1970—the story of a garden-club wife from New Brunswick, NJ, who joins the CIA in a madcap series of events—and Barbara Rosenblat narrates a dozen titles, all available at Audible. If you love John D. Macdonald or Rhys Bowen, may I suggest your next audio binge?'' —Christina, Audible Editor

Let’s just say Julia’s Russian accent has me #TeamStellan for life.'' —Katie, Audible Editor
