    Eiskalt und tödlich: Kaum hat Anna Fekete ihre erste Stelle als Kriminalkommissarin angetreten, landet auch schon ein Mordfall auf ihrem Tisch: Eine junge Frau, die beim Joggen im Wald auf grauenvolle Weise getötet wurde. Anna nimmt die Ermittlungen auf. Ihr zur Seite gestellt ist Esko Niemi, ein alter Haudegen, der seine junge Kollegin torpediert, wo er kann. Bis ein zweiter Mord geschieht und Esko klar wird, dass sie den Killer nur gemeinsam finden werden. Doch Anna ist bereits auf eigene Faust unterwegs. Die 19-jährige Riikka wird beim Joggen im Wald brutal ermordet. In den Taschen ihres Sportanzugs findet sich ein Amulett, dem die Polizei jedoch keine weitere Beachtung schenkt. Anna Fekete und ihr Kollege Esko Niemi übernehmen die Ermittlungen. Beim Verhör von Riikkas Freundeskreis erfahren sie, dass Riikka sich kurz zuvor von ihrem Freund getrennt hat. Allerdings ergibt die Autopsie, dass sie am Tag ihres Todes Geschlechtsverkehr hatte. Der Fall verkompliziert sich, als ein zweites Opfer gefunden wird. Wieder taucht ein Amulett beim Leichnam auf. Doch es gibt keinen Hinweis, dass die beiden Opfer sich gekannt haben. Wie sich zeigt, stellen die Amulette einen blutrünstigen Aztekengott dar. Handelt es sich bei dem Täter um einen Serienmörder, der seine Opfer zufällig auswählt? Bevor Anna Fekete und Esko Niemi eine Antwort finden, geschieht ein dritter Mord. Der Tatort entpuppt sich als kaltblütige Falle. deutsch. Camilla Renschke. https://samples.audible.de/bk/rhde/002300/bk_rhde_002300_sample.mp3.

Snatches of her childhood with her beautiful sister, and Ruby’s only friendship – with the boy from the next property, a foster kid she’d play games with in the bush at midnight. Then Ruby uncovers a cache of ancient letters from a long-lost relative, Brenna Magavin, written from her cell in a Tasmanian gaol. Brenna is about to be hanged for murder, and Ruby discovers that her family line is littered with tragedy and violence. As she reads, the gaps in Ruby’s memory come to her.

    Perry Rhodan und Gucky auf der Suche - Atlan ringt um seine Ritteraura.Mehr als 3000 Jahre in der Zukunft: Längst verstehen sich die Menschen als Terraner. Mit ihren Raumschiffen sind sie in die Tiefen des Universums vorgestoßen und dabei immer wieder außerirdischen Lebensformen begegnet; ihre Nachkommen haben Tausende von Planeten besiedelt und sich den neuen Umwelten angepasst.Perry Rhodan ist der Mensch, der den Terranern diesen Weg zu den Sternen eröffnet und sie seitdem begleitet hat. Nun steht er vor einer seiner größten Herausforderungen: Er wurde mit seinem Raumschiff, der RAS TSCHUBAI, vorwärts durch die Zeit in eine Epoche katapultiert, in der Terra und Luna verloren und vergessen zu sein scheinen.Mittlerweile hat er in einem Zwilling unseres Universums die beiden Himmelskörper wiederentdeckt und es mithilfe der Staubfürsten geschafft, sie in den Heimatzweig des "Dyoversums" zurückzubringen. Aus dem Mythos Terra ist wieder Realität geworden.In der Milchstraße eskaliert derweil die Situation: Die Cairaner und andere Mitgliedsvölker eines fernen Sternenbundes, die derzeit in der Milchstraße den Ton angeben, versuchen ihrerseits in dieses Zwillingsuniversum zu gelangen. Für ihr Trajekt, wie sie es nennen, brauchen sie das Supramentum und den unsterblichen Arkoniden Atlan.Das Supramentum wurde mittlerweile geschaffen, aber an Bord befindet sich nicht nur der originale Atlan, sondern auch ein optimierter Atlan, ein verbessertes Bio-Duplikat, das die Cairaner hergestellt haben. Während dieser Opt-Atlan nun seine Pläne vorantreibt, kehrt Atlan ein in die LETZTE RAST BEI MU SARGAI... deutsch. Uwe Anton. https://samples.audible.de/bk/eins/002300/bk_eins_002300_sample.mp3.

    Self-published in 2003, Hilary Thayer Hamanns Anthropology of an American Girl touched a nerve among readers, who identified with the sexual and intellectual awakening of its heroine, a young woman on the brink of adulthood.A moving depiction of the transformative power of first love, Hamanns first novel follows Eveline Auerbach from her high school years in East Hampton, New York, in the 1970s through her early adulthood in the moneyed, high-pressured Manhattan of the 1980s.Centering on Evie's fragile relationship with her family and her thwarted love affair with Harrison Rourke, a professional boxer, the novel is both a love story and an exploration of the difficulty of finding one's place in the world. As Evie surrenders to the dazzling emotional highs of love and the crippling loneliness of heartbreak, she strives to reconcile her identity with the constraints that all relationships - whether those familial or romantic, uplifting to the spirit or quietly detrimental - inherently place on us. Though she stumbles and strains against social conventions, Evie remains a strong yet sensitive observer of the world around her, often finding beauty and meaning in unexpected places.Newly edited and revised since its original publication, Anthropology of an American Girl is an extraordinary piece of writing, original in its vision and thrilling in its execution. ungekürzt.

    People may say that I couldn't sing. But no one can say that I didn't sing. Despite lacking pitch, rhythm, or tone, Florence Foster Jenkins became one of America's best-known sopranos, celebrated for her unique recordings and her sell-out concert at Carnegie Hall. Born in 1868 to wealthy Pennsylvanian parents, Florence was a talented young pianist, but her life was thrown into turmoil when she eloped with Frank Jenkins, a man twice her age. The marriage proved a disaster, and, in order to survive, Florence was forced to abandon her dreams of a musical career and teach the piano. Then her father died in 1909, and, newly installed in New York, she used a considerable inheritance to fund her passion. She set up a prestigious amateur music club and began staging operas. Aided by her English common-law husband, St Clair Bayfield, she worked tirelessly to support the city's musical life. Many young singers owed their start to Florence, but she, too, yearned to perform and began giving regular recitals that quickly attracted a cult following. And yet nothing could prepare the world for the astonishing climax of her career when, at the age of 76, she performed at the most hallowed concert hall in America. In Florence Foster Jenkins, Nicholas Martin and Jasper Rees tell her extraordinary story, which inspired the film starring Meryl Streep and Hugh Grant, directed by Stephen Frears. ungekürzt.

    Charlie Crist, the former Republican governor of Florida, spent years in the party's inner circle. In this no-holds-barred memoir, he shows why he switched sides and became a Democrat. After serving as a Republican governor - one who was on the short list for the vice presidency in 2008 - Charlie Crist made headlines when he decided to run for the U.S. Senate as an Independent. He was on the front page again when he endorsed President Obama in 2012 and spoke at the Democratic National Convention - and yet again when he officially joined the Democratic Party later that year. In The Party's Over, he'll make even more news when he reveals: The inside story of his 2010 Senate primary campaign against Marco Rubio, where he learned exactly how vicious the Republican leadership can be His journey from inner circle to persona non grata, thanks to his literal embrace of President Obama His very frank opinions on Marco Rubio, Jeb Bush, Mitt Romney, Sarah Palin, and other top-tier Republicans Why he believes that Democrats have the right vision for Florida and the nation What he's learned as a member of both parties and why he remains convinced that the two-party system can still work - with the right leadership Rather than just rehashing his career, in this audiobook Crist offers a focused indictment of the failings of the Republican Party, naming names and identifying where things went wrong. The Party's Over is as far from "politics as usual" as you can get. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Charlie Crist.
