Then someone comes along later and figures out what the odds of it happening were. Some of the deaths seemed purely coincidental; heart attacks, hunting accidents.

Twelve true crime stories of murder and mayhem. Fifth audiobook of the True Crime Case Histories Series (2020).

The stories in this volume are shocking and disturbing, but they’re also true. These things really do happen in the world.
