Sneaking out into Venice's maze of murky canals, Charlie's attempts to tame a cat burglar embroil him in a plot that is far bigger and more explosive than he could ever have imagined. ungekürzt.

    Midnight Falls : The Order of Shadows, Book 2 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 454min
    Stolen magic. Rising truths. Old demons. Welcome to Copperwood Falls. The dust had barely settled after my skirmish at Galloway Asylum, and there I was looking forward to some downtime, maybe even a promotion. What I got instead was a covert assignment and an urgent warning from on high: Get out of the city. Vanish. Go underground. So I did. And after a quick, or should I say bad, trip down the wrong side of memory lane, I found myself holing up in a sleepy rural town on a strictly cloak and dagger mission. Copperwood Falls. Think rolling forested hills, white picket fences, and lush apple pie - with a maggot wriggling under the crust. A haunted town where the woods whisper at night, and demons come calling. A place where the shadows are restless, and almost nothing is as it seems. Catching on to the town's dirty little secrets didn't take long, but I never imagined, not for one minute, exactly what opening the lid on that particular Pandora's Box was going to bring... ungekürzt.

    The Case of the Dead Man Gone (eBook, ePUB)
    "He says it's something serious. Might be murder."When the well-dressed Mrs. Wilson came into his office, her business seemed simple enough-although a little odd and mysterious for a woman of her bearing. She wanted Travers to find a missing man, who used to do a second-rate Houdini act in music halls. If Travers found her man, he was not to contact Mrs. Wilson but to advertise his find in the European edition of the New York Times.As first one person disappears and then another, what should have been a routine assignment becomes intriguingly complex. And the case becomes dangerous when a murdered man is discovered with Travers's calling card in his pocket.Baffling and exciting, this adventure with the urbane Ludovic Travers will please his fans and all connoisseurs of the genuine detective story.The Case of the Dead Man Gone was originally published in 1961. This new edition features an introduction by crime fiction historian Curtis Evans."Had me Bushed." Sunday Telegraph"The button-holing compulsion of Mr. Bush's narration and the easy charm of his detective make reading it a pleasure." Birmingham Post

    Lysistrata , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 112min
    The Peloponnesian War drags on and on with no end in sight, and the tough-minded Lysistrata has had enough. Men! - always making stupid decisions that affect everyone. Women's opinions are never listened to.Taking matters into her own hands, Lysistrata convenes a meeting of women from warring city-states across Greece and calls for a sex strike. It's a hard sell, but in the end, it is agreed: They will withhold sex until the war is brought to hasty a close.Playing their part, too, the old women of Athens seize control of the Acropolis - and with it, the treasury - holing up behind it's barred gates and choking off the silver that funds the interminable war.It's a waiting game, and a difficult one - some of the women are already becoming desperate for sex and deserting the cause. But Lysistrata is determined to stay the course and soon restores discipline. The men can't hold out forever...can they?First staged in 411 BC, Lysistrata is the bawdy, comic account of one woman's singular mission to end the Peloponnesian War using the only means that seems available to her in a male-dominated world. PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio. ungekürzt.

Women have to speak up, to shout louder to tell their story - like the auteurs and ground-breakers featured in this collection, including: Anne Enright on Laurie Anderson; Megan Jasper on her ground-breaking work with Sub Pop; Margo Jefferson on Bud Powell and Ella Fitzgerald; and Fatima Bhutto on music and dictatorship.This Woman's Work also features writing on the experimentalists, women who blended music and activism, the genre-breakers, the vocal auteurs; stories of lost homelands and friends; of propaganda and dictatorships, the women of folk and country, the racialised tropes of jazz, the music of Trap and Carriacou; of mixtapes and violin lessons.

    Playing With the Enemy: A Baseball Prodigy, a World at War, and a Field of Broken Dreams , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 573min
    In 1940, at just 15 years old, small-town baseball star Gene Moore was signed to the Brooklyn Dodgers, who saw in him the potential to become one of the great catchers of all time. Before that could happen, though, WWII intervened. Gene's story, a surprising paean to the power and humanity of a game, is told here by his son, a first-time author who exhibits the confidence and pacing of a pro. His gripping material certainly helps: after several years overseas in the Navy's touring baseball team, Gene was brought back to Louisiana and assigned to guard secret German POWs, whose U-boat was captured just days before the storming of Normandy. There, Gene teaches his German captives how to play baseball, with a number of unintended and life-altering consequences. When Gene's finally able to return home to Sesser, Ill., he's "on crutches, depressed and embarrassed," holing up in the local bar and prompting one bartender to lament, "he's become one of us, when we were hoping he would make us like him." Gene's journey from promise to despair and back again, set against a long war and an even longer post-war recovery, retains every bit of its vitality and relevance, a 20th-century epic that demonstrates how, sometimes, letting go of a dream is the only way to discover one's great fortune. ungekürzt.
