Description of  Swamp Kings: The Story of the Murdaugh Family of South Carolina & a Century of Backwoods Power [Audiobook]

B0CVL9VD83 MP3@64 kbps The stranger-than-fiction story of the now-notorious low country clan, in all its Southern Gothic intensity-by an author with unparalleled access to and knowledge of the players, the history, and the place. The many alleged crimes of Alex Murdaugh, revealed piecemeal over the last two years, have appalled the general public. Yet his implosion-the spectacular manner in which he has turned his vaunted family name to mud-has also proved mesmerizing. With every revelation, Murdaugh is further shown to be a man without bottom. Every new disclosure eclipses and redefines what's already known, making this a gothic crime story for the ages. Spanning a century of misdeeds and set amongst the swamps, pines, and poverty, Swamp Kings weaves together the jaw-dropping narratives of generations of Murdaughs, culminating in the trial that transfixed the nation and shining a bright light on the swamp kings of Hampton County-and their numerous victims-at last.
