A Murder on Long Island: The Last Advocate: A Joey Mancuso, Father O’Brian Crime Mystery, Book 2 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 427min
Real estate developer Harold Longworth is facing life in prison for the murder of his wife in their Sagaponack, Long Island home. Just hired by the defense attorneys, former NYPD detective Giuseppe "Joey" Mancuso realizes that for a whole year before the trial, the attorneys have bungled the investigation. Was it on purpose? Are the attorneys covering something up? Joey and his half-brother, Father Dominic O'Brian, have 10 days before the end of the trial to find the real murderer. The day of the murder, a year ago, Suffolk PD homicide detectives found Mr. Longworth, alone in the home, sitting by his wife's body after he called 911. Her blood was on his clothes. His bloody prints were on the murder weapon. Gunshot residue on his arms and hands. The prosecution is on the last days of their presentation. They have proven opportunity on the part of Longworth. As for motivation, they are about to show that Mrs. Longworth, the victim, was asking for a divorce and settlement on a $75 million estate. Further, they uncovered that Mr. Harold Longworth suspected his wife of having an affair. As Mancuso and Father O'Brian begin working the case from their center of operations, Captain O'Brian's Pub and Cigar Bar at the corner of Beaver and Hanover Streets in the Financial District of Manhattan, they find that there could be a lot more to this murder. The Longworth Foundation, a $100 million nonprofit organization, is under FBI probe and IRS audit for potential tax schemes, money laundering, and colluding with foreign governments. Mancuso, in his admitted Sherlock Holmes style, likes to look beyond the obvious. To observe things others looked at, but did not see. Can Mancuso and O'Brian save Mr. Longworth from a life sentence? Will they be able to unravel a possible fraudulent tax scheme being concocted by the foundation executives? Or, is it simply a case where the husband did it out of jealousy? ungekürzt.

The Abduction of Patient Zero: Joey Mancuso, Father O'Brian Crime Mystery, Book 6 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 409min
In his sixth labyrinthine hard-boiled puzzler, NYC private eye Joey Mancuso finds himself neck-deep in a maze of a murder mystery - the kind that weaves through military secrets and international espionage - at the center of which is the woman he loves. The vic Oscar Stanton (name etched into his designer trousers) was gunned down in Washington Square Park in broad daylight, just after a lunchtime rendezvous with a business associate. A quick and dirty ID reveals the real Oscar Stanton was working in cybersecurities for the DO and, perhaps unsurprisingly, was KIA in Afghanistan. And Mancuso’s antics tend to weave a winding yarn as intricately connected as a satisfying Sherlock Holmes.Despite a recent drop in New York City’s crime rate, the PI business is booming for acutely astute investigator Joey Mancuso and his partner-in-solving-crime Father Dominic O’Brian (who happens to be his half-brother). So, it’s no surprise when Mancuso is called to the scene of a particularly gruesome and utterly confounding Lower Manhattan murder one otherwise pleasant afternoon. As a complex white collar crime case unfolds with the usual barrage of infighting between the NYPD, CIA, FBI, and military intelligence, it becomes increasingly evident that despite personal ties to the case, Mancuso and his associates are Marcy’s only hope. They must race the clock - and a likely well-connected killer, not to mention the intelligence forces the killer certainly has in his back pocket - to catch the FBI’s missing suspect and clear Marcy, before she’s falsely accused of espionage and murder or goes the way of the men surrounding her.Who will like this: It's Matt Scudder meets Father Brown. Fans of both New York PI novels and police procedurals like those by Raymond Chandler, Joseph Wambaugh, Lawrence Block, and Rex Stout, and clerical mysteries will love this offbeat detective team. As will devotees of the greatest detective of all time - Sir Arthur ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Randy McCarten.

Cowboys, Bikers and Fishermen , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 412min
Red, Stan, and Sunny O’Brian, three baby boomer brothers in their 60s, are faced with a four-pronged invasion of the country and each must do what they can to defend the US, in his own way. Along with their sons, grandchildren and extended family, they do whatever it takes to stop this invasion by forces that would destroy it from within by using systems and infrastructure that were designed to make our lives easier. The three brothers and the cocky female pilot, Charlie, represent the five branches of the military and they each do what they have to, with the extended families of cowboys, bikers and fishermen to save the country. Red, the cowboy, rallies his riders to prevent the destruction of downtown Dallas, while his biker brother Stan, on his way to Sturgis, foils a plan to launch an air strike on the nation from the heart of the country, Nebraska. And Sunny, the retired Naval commander, spends his life as a fishermen, but is also responsible for organizing the new Naval Militia. With, boats, planes, and trucks, the plan is set for the “four horsemen” to cripple the nation and take over from within. But they forgot to take one very important element into consideration in their very flawed plan … the will and might of the American people to defend what is theirs against enemies, foreign, and domestic. “As Red and the other cowboys rode away, dust billowing behind them like it did behind Stan and his fellow bikers, there was a similarity of purpose and pride in a country that gave them freedom to ride the open highways or the open plains, or even for Sunny, the open waters. It was about freedom for all of them, and they knew it was this freedom they must now defend and preserve.” ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Skip Lipman.

Sails on the Horizon: A Novel of the Napoleonic Wars , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 665min
Dientes de Diablo, 1797 - With his first historical high-seas adventure chronicling the exploits of Naval Commander Charles Edgemont, Jay Worrall sets sail in the rousing tradition of C.S. Forester and Patrick O’Brian. The year is 1797. Napoleon Buonaparte is racking up impressive wins in the field against the enemies of revolutionary France. On the seas, England is putting up a staunch resistance. When a modest fleet of British ships off the coast of Portugal encounters a larger force of Spanish vessels on their way to rendezvous with the French, the English are quick to seize the opportunity for a victory - even at the risk of a calamitous defeat. Twenty-five-year-old Charles Edgemont is second lieutenant aboard the HMS Argonaut, the smallest ship in the British line of battle. When orders come for the Argonaut to engage in an all-but-suicidal maneuver to cut off the escape of the Spanish ships, he leads his gun crews bravely - until the death of the captain and the first lieutenant elevates him to command of the stricken vessel. In the chaos that follows, his defiant refusal to yield under enemy fire earns him a permanent promotion. Thanks to the purse awarded him by the Admiralty after the fight, Charles is wealthy beyond his wildest dreams. But there are challenges when he returns home after years at sea. His newfound riches will prove no help when it comes to winning the heart of Penelope Brown, the feisty Quaker with whom Charles falls in love. Even more of a hindrance is his profession, for Penelope regards war as sinful and soldiers as little better than murderers. Changing Penelope’s mind may just be the hardest battle Charles has ever fought - at least until fresh orders send him back to sea, where he faces a more traditional and equally formidable adversary in a series of stirring battles of will and might. ungekürzt.
