For his victims, for their families and for the investigators tasked with finding him, the senselessness and brutality of the Golden State Killer's acts were matched only by the powerlessness they felt at failing to uncover his identity. Then, on April 24, 2018, authorities arrested 72-year-old Joseph James DeAngelo at his home in Citrus Heights, Calif., based on DNA evidence linked to the crimes. Amazingly, it seemed, evil finally had a name. Please note: This work contains descriptions of violent crime and sexual assault and may not be suitable for all listeners.

Evil has a name is a great book...done with great ease...they worked for years and gave us a safer world
Revisado: 08-14-20
This book explains with a great understanding the DNA that was used to find this criminal. It made a full closure possible for the victims and their families and gave us a pure understanding of new technologies....I feel like this is a movie showing how crime will be solved in the future making it an easier world to live in for victims, who have lived in fear of a returning ANIMAL....if you like to get the real story behind solving this crime, this will give you a true story.
God bless the people who worked with such dedication to get this crime completely marked SOLVED.

Texas: a land of sprawling diversity and unparalleled richness; a dazzling chapter in the history of our nation; a place like no other on Earth. Through the remarkable lives of four families, this epic saga spans four centuries and two continents and charts the dramatic formation of several great dynasties from the age of the conquistadors to the present day. A richly compelling novel of a proud people eager to meet the challenge of the land, Texas is James Michener's most magnificent achievement.

As a founding member of The Beach Boys, Mike Love has spent an extraordinary 55 years, and counting, as the group's lead singer and one of its principal lyricists. The Beach Boys, from their California roots to their international fame, are a unique American story - one of overnight success and age-defying longevity; of musical genius and reckless self-destruction; of spirituality, betrayal, and forgiveness - and Love is the only band member to be part of it each and every step.

Just like sitting with Mike Love
Revisado: 12-12-16
Where does Good Vibrations rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Better than most...I love having Mike Love tell stories in his voice...just like sitting with him and having him tell you his memories about his family and The Beach Boys....
What other book might you compare Good Vibrations to and why?
Troublemaker...Leah Remini ...in her voice she tells her story ...
What does Mike Love bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Mike adds some singing a line or two from a song he wrote with Brian Wilson and you feel like you were really there.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Yes...when his family begins to die...Mike is 74 and really tells you about all his losses..and I loved his memories about his Christmas traditions...
Any additional comments?
Both books are great...but I really enjoyed the Audible better....because Mike is a performer and it never gets old...it just is fascinating....

Stella was born to sing. Someday Broadway. But everything changes when a tragic accident renders her deaf; she cannot hear, much less sing. Trapped in a strange new world of total silence, she must face not only the loss of her friends, her hopes, and her voice but also the loss of her identity and her life's purpose. Who is she if she's not a singer? Hayden is a quiet loner, an outcast, and the only person Stella can communicate with; his profound stutter makes him speak so slowly, she is able to easily read his lips.

Wonderful teenage characters....
Revisado: 02-02-16
Where does Silence rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Story best.....like any great novelist....the story is the truth Ms. Lytton really understood her characters....I cried...
What was one of the most memorable moments of Silence?
When the girl talked about her relationship with God, her parents, and her deep understanding of Hayden's life...Stella is a remarkable woman....young but not to young.
Which character – as performed by Rebecca Gibel and Charlie Thurston – was your favorite?
All were fine...voices seemed a little old for the teenagers...of today.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Yes.......when Stella describes silence....she is wise beyond her years but she and Hayden will be together forever.....
Any additional comments?
Loved they way the book went back and forth.....I really understood the story and character development.
