Mayhem av Sigrid Rausing er en lydbok om hvordan avhengighet virker på en familie. Dette er et svært velskrevet og aktuelt forsøk på å forstå den forvirrende og vanskelige avhengigheten, og en personlig skildring like ødeleggende som den er medrivende. Sommeren 2012 ble Eva Rausing funnet død i sitt hjem i London. Både hun og ektemannen, Hans K. Rausing, hadde slitt med stoffmisbruk i mange år, ofte under tabloidpressens blitzregn. Etter at Eva blir funnet død i sitt hjem, forsøker Sigrid å begripe hva som skjedde. Hun skriver om de vanskelige spørsmålene som alle med avhengighet i nær familie møter: Kunne hun hjulpet dem? Hvem skulle hjulpet dem? Og hvem kan hjelpe familien som er så dypt involvert i den avhengiges destruktive liv? Sigrid Rausing er redaktør av Granta Magazine, samt forlegger for Granta Books og Portobello Books i London.
