    Miss Celine Fairweather’s life was bobbing along like a boat on a tranquil stream when a summons from her beloved sister, Penelope Radclyff, the duchess of Blackthorne, changed it all. Celine hurtles off to London to help the duchess run the Blackthorne Mansion and to discover the whereabouts of her lost love, Philbert Woodbead. Celine manages to keep things deathly dull and under control for a whole week until she enlists the help of the handsome Lord Elmer - a mischievous rogue, an ex-pirate, and an incorrigible flirt who is wanted dead by all of England’s husbands with attractive wives. They scurry from one giddy escapade to another seeking Philbert in musty inns and dusty streets, and through it all Celine tries to keep her bonnet straight, her gloves spotless, and her heart in tune with her head. Life has suddenly turned exciting, and love has well and truly bitten her rosy buttocks. Now the only question is...who has done the biting? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Deryn Oliver. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/221939/bk_acx0_221939_sample.mp3.

    Sometimes we’re allowed to glimpse the beauty within the brokenness.... Savannah Barrington has always found solace at her parents’ lake house in the Berkshires, and it’s the place that she runs to when her husband of more than 20 years leaves her.

But soon Savannah is given a challenge she can’t run away from: forgiving the unforgivable.

    A world-weary man finds his career and personal life in shambles. To make matters worse, his wife has engaged in a rather heated affair with an attorney - a fact he discovers when his wife accidentally calls home and gives him a ringside seat to just how heated things are. Broke, disenchanted and numb, Rick takes a vacation he cannot afford to sort out his life, if possible. Vacationing in a run-down resort on a shark-infested island in the Caribbean, he goes exploring against the advice of a local preacher who isn’t really a preacher at all, but a former British undercover agent with a secret - a secret that Rick discovers while exploring, quite by accident and that will change his life forever; a secret that spans a century, beginning in a darkened chamber of the Kaisers palace to a dank bunker in war-torn Berlin and ending in a musty church where the Odessa Legacy is reawakened. ungekürzt.

    The House of Seven Gables, Hörbuch, Digital, 336min
    A dark, many-gabled mansion in a small New England village houses the distinguished Pyncheon family, who are haunted by a centuries-old curse that casts the shadow of ancestral sin on its last four members. The arrival of Phoebe Pyncheon from the country breathes fresh air and sunshine into their musty, decaying home. Hawthorne called The House Of the Seven Gables a "romance" drawing on the Gothic tradition of exploiting the supernatural. The poet and critic, James Russell Lowell, deemed this work "the most valuable contribution to New England history that has been made". Nathaniel Hawthorne was born in 1804 in Salem, Massachusetts, a direct descendant of the William Hawthorne, who had emigrated to New England with the first generation of Puritan settlers in 1630. New England Puritanism and its legacy provided Hawthorne with the means of the themes that concerned him deeply; among them the conflict between patriarchal authority and the impulse to a variety of freedoms, including the freedom of the artist. Phoenix Books also offers an audio edition of Hawthorne's classic, The Scarlet Letter. Language: English. Narrator: Joan Allen.

    Lion in the Valley: The Amelia Peabody Series, Book 4 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 750min
    Amelia Peabody, archaeologist and woman extraordinaire, should have greeted the approaching excavation with transports of joy. Nothing in the world could compare with exploring the muddy, musty corridors of some bat-infested pyramid. And at Dahshoor, to which she was headed, there existed some particularly fine specimens. But Amelia, accompanied by her quixotic husband Emerson and Ramses, their elusive son, feels an awful, nameless foreboding as she stands upon the decks of the ship that bears them across waters of the Mediterranean towards Egypt. Perhaps it has something to do with what transpired the last time they investigated the ruins of the Black Pyramid. On that infamous occasion they came face-to-face with Sethos, that chameleon-like villain otherwise known as The Master Criminal. While successful in depriving this "genius of crime" of his ill-gotten treasure, they were thwarted in their attempts to capture him. He escaped into the night like a wily serpent, revenge embroidered upon his countenance. It is inevitable that The Master Criminal should come face-to-face with the inimitable Amelia Peabody again, but this time it is not antiquities he is after, but Amelia herself! ungekürzt.
