    James Renner - A Cruise to Nowhere

    Gripping, suspenseful, and layered with insight, this is the first full account of the infamous disappearance of Amy Lynn Bradley while onboard a cruise ship in the Caribbean—from the acclaimed author of True Crime Addict. In March 1998, the Bradley family—Ron, Iva, and their children, Amy and Brad—boarded the Rhapsody of the Seas for a week-long Caribbean cruise. The trip was a chance to celebrate Ron’s success at work and Amy’s college graduation. In the early hours of March 24, Amy Bradley—a pretty, athletic 23-year-old—returned to the family’s stateroom with Brad after dancing at the ship’s nightclub. Amy grabbed a blanket and went out to sleep on the balcony. A few hours later, her father awoke to find her gone. What happened to her remains a mystery. Did Amy fall or jump into the water? Did she leave the boat voluntarily when it docked at Curaçao that morning? Was she smuggled off against her will and trafficked in one of the island’s brothels? In a baffling case filled with false leads, rumors, and conflicting witness reports, the only certainty is that, nearly three decades later, the Bradleys are still looking for Amy. Now, acclaimed investigative journalist James Renner provides the first definitive account of Amy’s disappearance, enriched with his own personal narrative that explores themes of identity, loss, and the deeply human need to find meaning in tragedy. With empathy and a keen eye, Renner interviews witnesses who speak on record for the first time, offering fascinating new theories, and explores a little-known side of Amy’s life that may explain everything about her fate.

    Bill Gauthier - The Monster in the Closet

    What if the monster in your child’s closet is real? Tim Beaulieu’s daughter, Cleo, says that the monster is also her invisible friend, whom she blames for innocuous trouble. The whole thing makes Tim uneasy as he tries to remember a part of his childhood that is missing. Surely nothing can be wrong. Can it? When the boy in the apartment upstairs goes missing after hurting Cleo, horrific memories begin to resurface as Tim finds himself under suspicion for the unthinkable. His daughter and those around him are in danger. Tim must face his past to save Cleo but can they survive the monster in the closet? **************** “Stephen King fans will be enthralled.” — Publishers Weekly “At first, Bill Gauthier’s The Monster in the Closet feels like a traditional love letter to iconic horror authors like Stephen King, Michael McDowell, Peter Straub, etc. However, this marvelously unique, terrifyingly unpredictable tale suddenly goes off the rails in an unexpected direction that quite surprised me, shocked me even. Imaginative, tense, and deeply heartfelt, this novel moved me and chilled me in equal measure with unforgettable twists and flawed, richly textured characters. Highly recommended!” —Eric LaRocca, author of Things Have Gotten Worse Since We Last Spoke “I have watched Bill Gauthier’s career from the very beginning, and he never fails to impress. Steadily and consistently he has become one of the finest up-and-coming writers at work in the horror genre today. And he’s done it the right way, through years of hard work, determination, perseverance, and a focus on constantly honing and improving his craft. There are a lot of pretenders out there. Bill Gauthier isn’t one of them. He’s the real deal. Do NOT miss his work.” —Greg F. Gifune, author of Pack Animals and The Standing Dead Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/houseofmysteryradio. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Michael Balter - Dead Exit

    A DEADLY RECKONING UNFOLDS in book three of Michael Balter's award-winning crime thriller series. Marty Schott and Bo Bishop are trying to extricate themselves from a dangerous business partnership with a Russian oligarch when a midnight phone call shatters their plans. Bo’s brother-in-law has been murdered—and the Portland police detective on the scene recognizes them instantly. He’s questioned them before. He hasn’t forgotten. As Marty and Bo dig for answers, they uncover a hidden wire, criminal activity inside their own company, and a killer who isn’t finished. What begins as a murder investigation quickly spirals into a high-stakes web of cigarette smuggling, counterfeit money, and a covert FBI operation they don’t yet understand. Every lead pulls them deeper into a conspiracy that blurs the line between criminals and law enforcement—and puts their families squarely in the crosshairs. At the same time, the cracks between them begin to widen. Marty is still entangled with Natalya, the alluring power broker linked to the powerful investor they’re trying to escape, and Marty’s inability to cut ties threatens everything. Bo’s loyalty is pushed to the limit as secrets, suspicion, and past betrayals collide. With pressure mounting from every direction, a single misstep pulls Marty into a deadly trap—and forces a choice that could cost him everything. In Dead Exit, danger isn’t over—it’s waiting for one wrong move. Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/houseofmysteryradio. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
