Review: Murder Casebook Volume 1: 12 Shocking True Crime Cases by Prash Ganendran, narrated by Mark Rice-Oxley
Murder Casebook Volume 1: 12 Shocking True Crime Cases brings together in audiobook format 12 unforgettable true stories featuring some of the most heinous criminals, their crimes, and of course, the innocent victims.
Prepare to discover some of the most captivating and definitely unsettling cases in recent and not-so-recent history, painstakingly researched and comprehensively written by British author and true crime enthusiast Prash Ganendran.
Listening to this audiobook reminded me a lot of those documentaries that I was watching on the Discovery channel as a teenager. I remember one of them had a psychiatrist arranging criminals on a scale in search of those who could be declared as True Evil.
The writing is so vivid and the narration so compelling that I was swept away into these accursed adventures that now I think I want to forget. It is always disconcerting and terrifying to think about what human beings can do to one another.
So just as a warning, I need to stress the fact that the audiobook deals with serious and distressing incidents and may not be suitable for all audiences, so listener discretion is definitely advised.
Native British voiceover artist, and award-winning theater acto, Mark Rice-Oxley does absolutely stellar work in bringing to life these characters, locations, and times.
His narration is top-notch, and he perfectly understands the dramatic value of the material that he is delivering to us, as listeners, so Mr. Rice-Oxley also puts to good use decades of experience in the theater in order to create the highest level of immersion.
I have always been fascinated by this genre, I love mysteries and thrillers from fiction to true crime, so I had a great time with Murder Casebook Volume 1: 12 Shocking True Crime Cases, I learned a lot of new captivating things about criminals and their unsuspecting victims, so if you are a true crime enthusiast or have a curiosity to unravel the hidden motives surrounding crimes, I highly recommend that you check out this gripping audiobook.
Volume two should be released sometime this year so I am definitely looking forward to more audiobooks from this talented author and narrator duo.
We hope that you enjoyed this article and, if you did, that you will share it with your friends on social media.
