True stories of death and desperation


One survivor chooses loneliness.

One chooses exile.

One chooses oblivion.

Some have violent tendencies, ruining lives indiscriminately.

Some seal their own fate in slow motion; others do so in the blink of an eye.

In The Survivors, award-winning true-crime writer Steve Braunias retells twelve mysteries of human nature - unusual stories of how people choose to survive their own lives, and their decisions, desires, impulses... and failings.

If you’re a fan of true crime that focuses more on humanity than horror and shines a light on the resilience of those who survive The Survivors is well worth your time. I really enjoyed the 12 very different stories of how people navigate the messiness of being human. It’s not just about the crimes it’s about the people and that’s what makes it so compelling. I found the stories incredibly interesting especially because most of them were completely new to me. Listening to the audiobook added another layer of connection, as Braunias himself reads it. His voice and delivery added an authenticity that made the stories feel even more personal and real.

Great storytelling
