    Enough Rope: Hakim and Arnold, Book 4 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 648min
    Private investigator and ex-soldier Lee Arnold and police superintendent Paul Venus are by no means friends, but when Venus' son, Harry, is kidnapped and ransom demands arrive from an address in Arnold's patch in east London, the superintendent doesn't know who else to turn to.  Arnold and his Muslim assistant, Mumtaz Hakim, soon find themselves chasing leads into several of the East End's uneasily coexisting communities. Mumtaz uncovers a link to one of the area's powerful Bangladeshi families, whose property empire has always seemed suspicious, while Arnold suspects the involvement of more old-fashioned East End gangsters and wonders if some of the nastier rumours about Venus himself might be true.  And neither Mumtaz nor Lee likes the look of the children of the super rich, arriving in droves in the trendy parts of Hoxton and Shoreditch and living in luxury just a stone's throw from grinding urban poverty.  The truth, however, is stranger and more dangerous than either Arnold or Hakim imagine. Enough Rope is a powerful and thrilling novel of London's ever-evolving dark side. ungekürzt.

    Eel has troubles of his own: As an orphan and a "mudlark", he spends his days in the filthy River Thames, searching for bits of things to sell. He's being hunted by Fisheye Bill Tyler, and a nastier man never walked the streets of London. And he's got a secret that costs him four precious shillings a week to keep safe. But even for Eel, things aren't so bad until that fateful August day in 1854 - the day the Great Trouble begins. Mr. Griggs, the tailor, is the first to get sick, and soon it's clear that the deadly cholera - the "blue death" - has come to Broad Street. Everyone believes that cholera is spread through poisonous air. But one man, Dr. John Snow, has a different theory. As the epidemic surges, it's up to Eel and his best friend, Florrie, to gather evidence to prove Snow's theory before the entire neighborhood is wiped out. Part medical mystery, part survival story, and part Dickensian adventure, Deborah Hopkinson's The Great Trouble is a celebration of a fascinating pioneer in public health and a gripping novel about the 1854 London cholera epidemic. ungekürzt.

In the Top Secret Section are books belonging to children. These books are blank, but magically begin to write themselves when a child dares to dream. This fast-paced action adventure follows Kevin, who is placed in Greystones, a scary school for unwanted children. Kevin escapes the clutches of Mr. East, the one-eyed beast, only to be caught by Lawrence Pudding-Pig, a bully who is even nastier than his name sounds, and locked in the Forbidden Turret, where he discovers a secret. Together, with his friend Misty, they venture through worlds of dice, dwarfs, talking animals, and the impossible to discover the real power of dreams. The same magical power in this strange tale, flows through this audiobook. Can you feel it? Are you one of the special ones? Dare you listen to it?

    Wolf Killer: The Hammer Commission , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 339min
    With having to leave the commission for a year while things cool off politically, Mark finds that the church has loaned him out to the FBI, who have been trying for years now to get an experienced monster and demon expert in their newest division, to help train and educate the agents there on just what they will be facing. Finding out that Mark actually is one of those very monsters has made them want him even more - not just for what he can bring to the table but because they do need to check off that newest minority checkbox, even if no one knows they exist. Mark doesn't mind the new assignment; being closer to home means it will be easier to visit with family, and the agents all seem nice enough. Plus the FBI has a bigger budget and gets a lot nicer toys than Mark is used to. However, while Mark knows how to deal with devils, demons, and even the nastier monsters out there, he doesn't know anything about how to deal with a sociopath werewolf who has gone full psycho and started to murder coeds. That's more of a human problem, after all. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Doug Tisdale Jr.. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/073018/bk_acx0_073018_sample.mp3.

    In Bed with Susie Bright 590: Susie's and Bryan Cranston's Big Sex Scene, Hörbuch, Digital, 31min, (USK 18)
    It's true! Susie coached Breaking Bad's "Walter White" (Bryan Cranston) on the proper way to do an erotic love scene. It was 1994, and Susie was working on a movie as a writer. She was asked to help two actors who were rehearsing a very steamy scene. Susie remembers how sweet and gentlemanly Bryan Cranston was back then. She kept giving him pointers on how to get nastier and sexier. Looks like Susie's coaching really helped him to find his inner Walter. Next, Susie shares a recent interview she did with Slantthere.com. They were interested in Susie's take on contemporary sexual politics. The discussion ranged from Internet porn and misperceptions about erotica to the deadliness of prudery. Finally, from the "Try This at Home" mailbag, a letter requiring an urgent reply: "Do kinky lovers use S/M to avoid real intimacy?" Wow, does Susie have a lot to say about that! Have a question?

    First a shooting, then a grisly discovery on the common.... Police partners, D.I. Calladine and D.S. Ruth Bayliss race against time to track down a killer before the whole area erupts in violence. Their boss thinks it's all down to drug lord Ray Fallon, but Calladine's instincts say something far nastier is happening on the Hobfield housing estate. Can this duo track down the murderer before anyone else dies and before the press publicise the gruesome crimes? Detectives Calladine and Bayliss are led on a trail which gets dangerously close to home. In a thrilling finale they race against time to rescue someone very close to Calladine's heart.

The series is set in the fictional village of Leesdon on the outskirts of an industrial northern English city. There is little work and a lot of crime. The bane of Calladine's life is the Hobfield housing estate, breeding ground to all that is wrong with the area that he calls home. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jonathan Keeble.

    Nordic Aliens and the Star People of the Americas: Through the Wormhole: The Ancient Astronauts Who Terraformed Earth , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 550min
    Humans living in a dark, flooded world without sunlight - that’s what the gods of the Incas found upon their arrival. They terraformed waterlogged Earth to make it habitable again and built golden cities along the western half of South America connected by 25,000 miles of Inca road.Inca legends match the biblical Genesis but with incredible detail that tells a much fuller story. Creation did not involve making the sun and moon, and Earth out of nothing - it reworked what was already here. Darkness suggests a sky filled with debris, possibly volcanic, blocking out sunlight and moonlight. Extraterrestrials cleaned our atmosphere to make the sun and moon visible again, and then settled on Earth for a time to teach us a better way of life. They taught us how to be human.These visitors from the stars instructed us in masonry, metallurgy, farming, road-building, irrigation, reading, writing, mathematics, a system of laws, astronomy, human and veterinary medicine, meteorology, toolmaking, cobbling shoes, and how to protect ourselves against wicked giants. And then they left, promising to return someday. We are still waiting.Contrary to traditional belief, they abhorred cannibalism and human sacrifice, two of our nastier traits, but like rebellious teenagers we did it anyways. Their method of teaching would be called kidnapping and slavery by some, presenting us with an ethical dilemma since we’ve used the exact same methods ourselves. We’ve even engaged in activities with “uncontacted tribes” that match an eighth-century AD attempted disclosure event by the extraterrestrials, with about as much success.Many ancient gods looked like us but were giants with skin as white as snow and equally white curly hair - in other words Nordic aliens. These “sons of god” commingled with the “daughters of men” to create a troublesome race of giants which tormented humans and had to be eradicated.Ancient American history is full of strange events in th ungekürzt.
