American True Crime Files

10 Real Cases of Serial Killers, Unsolved Murders, Missing Persons, and Criminal Minds (True Crime Case Files, Book 1)

By: Colter Ashborne

Narrated by: Kenneth R Johnson

Everyone knows the infamous names.

Ted Bundy. John Wayne Gacy. Jeffrey Dahmer. The Zodiac Killer. Charles Manson. The Golden State Killer.

Their crimes have been covered again and again. But beyond the familiar monsters of true crime history lies a darker world of cases that are just as chilling—and often far less known.

American True Crime Files takes listeners into ten real cases involving serial killers, missing persons, unsolved murders, and criminal minds. These are stories of victims, investigators, families, hidden patterns, missed warnings, and the disturbing truth that evil often hides in places people least expect.

Inside this audiobook, you will hear about real crimes involving ordinary neighborhoods, quiet communities, dangerous offenders, unanswered questions, and investigations that left lasting scars.

This is not fiction. These are the cases that remind us why true crime continues to haunt us—not only because of what happened, but because of how easily darkness can exist behind an ordinary face, an ordinary house, or an ordinary life.

For listeners who enjoy true crime case files, serial killer investigations, cold cases, missing persons stories, criminal psychology, and dark nonfiction, American True Crime Files delivers a gripping and unsettling journey into the crimes America still remembers.
