About this listen
Robert Wilhelm's long-awaited sequel to The Bloody Century takes the listener back to nineteenth-century America in all its gory glory. Nothing much has changed; people killed then as they do now for greed, jealousy, love and hate but this fascinating journey through the mindset of the century has much to tell us about detection methods and court decisions and has much that will surprise. Who, for instance, would ever imagine that the coroner's decision on a body found with two distinct shots to the head would initially be suicide? That two men so consumed with hatred would end up murdering each other? That a man would murder not one but two wives by the exact same method - and almost get away with it! That a reclusive gold-prospector would turn out to be a cannibal?
The Bloody Century 2 is richly illustrated with graphic depictions of murderers and their crimes from 19th-century sources. The book draws on contemporary reporting with eye-popping headlines like 'Horror!' (from the Philadelphia Inquirer in 1866) and ‘Rum and the Knife’ (Illustrated Police News, 1877).
In this engaging book, thoughtfully divided by motive for easy reading, the whole panoply of who does what to whom in what circumstances is laid bare. Read in one gulp or savor it by dipping - The Bloody Century 2 - More Tales of Murder in 19th Century America is a book the reader will find hard to put down.

The idea of Scotland Yard is steeped in atmospheric stories of foggy London streets, murder by lamplight, and fiendish killers pursued by gentleman detectives. From its establishment in 1829 through the eve of World War II, Scotland Yard—the world’s first modern, professional, and centrally organized police force—set new standards for policing and investigating. Based on official case files, contemporary newspaper reporting, trial transcripts, and the first-hand accounts of the detectives on the beat, Scotland Yard tells the tales of some of history’s most notorious murders.

Early in the morning of Monday, July 8, 1895, 13-year-old Robert Coombes and his 12-year-old brother, Nattie, set out from their small, yellow-brick terraced house in East London to watch a cricket match at Lord's. Their father had gone to sea the previous Friday, the boys told their neighbors, and their mother was visiting her family in Liverpool. Over the next 10 days, Robert and Nattie spent extravagantly, pawning their parents' valuables to fund trips to the theatre and the seaside. But as the sun beat down on the Coombes house, a strange smell began to emanate.

The plague that devastated Asia and Europe in the 14th century has been of never-ending interest to both scholars and the general public. Many books on the plague rely on statistics to tell the story. In The Great Mortality, author John Kelly lends an air of immediacy and intimacy to his telling of the journey of the plague as it traveled from the steppes of Russia, across Europe, and into England, killing 75 million people—one third of the known population—before it vanished.

An origin story of how America became addicted to sensationalized reporting of criminal trials, The Witch of New York vividly reconstructs an epic mystery from Old New York—and uses the Bodine case to challenge our system of tabloid justice of today.

In early modern England, murder truly was most foul. Trials were gossipy events packed to the rafters with noisome spectators. Executions were public proceedings which promised not only gore, but desperate confessions and the grandest, most righteous human drama. Bookshops saw grisly stories of crime and death sell like hot cakes. This history unfolds the true stories of murder, criminal investigation, early forensic techniques, high court trials and so much more.

Murder in the 19th century was rare. But murder as sensation and entertainment became ubiquitous, with cold-blooded killings transformed into novels, broadsides, ballads, opera, and melodrama - even into puppet shows and performing-dog acts. Detective fiction and the new police force developed in parallel, each imitating the other - the founders of Scotland Yard gave rise to Dickens's Inspector Bucket, the first fictional police detective, who in turn influenced Sherlock Holmes and, ultimately, even P. D. James and Patricia Cornwell.

Intriguing Lesser Known Crimes
Robert Wilhelm returns with more tales of murder. He outlines each crime from the moment it is committed to its final outcomes and everything in between.
The author, Robert Wilhelm, offers well-researched accounts of each crime, from its commission to its resolution. Rather than focusing on well-known cases, he delves into lesser-known but equally fascinating murders. Avoiding sensationalism, he presents each case tastefully and engagingly, with meticulous and thorough research evident throughout.
The narrator, Charles Huddleston, delivers an engaging and immersive experience without resorting to sensationalism. Huddleston maintains an even, smooth delivery, allowing the words to vividly paint the picture. His delivery is deliberate and well-paced.
Crime enthusiasts will thoroughly enjoy this collection. Rich in detail and uniquely presented, it keeps listeners coming back for more! There were no issues with the quality or production of this audiobook.

Fascinating Reporting
This was my first experience with this author's work, and it was amazing. I liked the clear and concise language used while describing the different murders, the events surrounding the murders, and the conclusion after the murders. I admired the depth of research that went into this manuscript. Although the subject matter was disturbing, the descriptions were not sensationalized, and yet I was never bored with the presentation. I thought Charles Huddleston's narration was great, and his performance kept my attention. I was given a copy of the audiobook. I volunteered, without financial gain, to post this review which reflected my honest opinions regarding this audiobook.
