On two sultry nights in 1969, a charismatic madman sent his “Family” to slaughter. They obeyed blindly. He never held a weapon. But he held their minds. The Infamous Family of Crime is a devastating, seven-chapter psychological audiobook told through the eyes of Clara Monroe—a former disciple who once called herself “Star.” From desert worship to courtroom spectacle, from whispered delusions to decades behind bars, this is not a story of innocence lost. It is a story of complicity, conscience, and the long road to truth. Inspired by the real-life Manson Family murders, this fictionalized retelling dives into cult manipulation, trauma, and the unbearable weight of memory. With chilling realism and a voice shaped by pain, Clara recounts how she became part of one of America’s most infamous crimes—and what it means to wake up decades later still haunted by the name of the woman she helped destroy. Her name was Sharon.
