    In Contempt, Hörbuch, Digital, 165min
    For more than a year, Christopher Darden argued tirelessly for the prosecution, giving voice to the victims in the 0.J. Simpson murder trial. This number-one New York Times best seller is an unflinching look at what the television cameras could not show: behind-the-scenes meetings; the deteriorating relationships between the defense and prosecution teams; the taunting, baiting, and pushing matches between Darden and Simpson; the intimate relationship between Darden and Marcia Clark; and the candid factors behind Darden's controversial decision for Simpson to try on the infamous glove, and much more. Out of the sensational frenzy of "The Trial of the Century" comes this haunting memoir of duty, justice, and the powerful undertow of American racism. A stunning masterpiece told with brutal honesty and courage. Language: English. Narrator: Christopher Darden. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/060521/bk_acx0_060521_sample.mp3.

    Tinker Murtagh thinks his new job is simple, but he's never robbed a medical clinic before - and he's never dealt with someone like Dr. Henry Van Deman. In Fresh Frozen by Darden North, a childless young policeman and his desperate, infertile wife meet Lucille Wax and her sales catalogue of human embryo and egg donors. Suddenly their Mississippi community faces grisly murder, the world of Hollywood celebrity, and a physician with a hidden agenda. The lives of Carrie and Wesley Sarbeck, international superstar Allyn Saxton, and southern socialite Cheryl Choice unwittingly collide at the Van Deman Center, a state-of-the-art clinic for the treatment of infertility, housed in a once decaying building complex in Canton, Mississippi. The facility is equipped not only with modern medical technology but also a network of secret security cameras hidden in unconventional places and controlled by cyber thief Tinker Murtagh. While Dr. Knox Chamblee, Van Deman's younger medical partner, treats his patients per protocol, he unknowingly promotes the deception, preserving the dark secrets of the Van Deman Center of Reproductive Technology.

    The Masterpiece: A Novel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 703min
    In this latest captivating novel, New York Times best-selling author Fiona Davis takes listeners into the glamorous lost art school within Grand Central Terminal, where two very different women, 50 years apart, strive to make their mark on a world set against them.For most New Yorkers, Grand Central Terminal is a crown jewel, a masterpiece of design. But for Clara Darden and Virginia Clay, it represents something quite different. For Clara, the terminal is the stepping stone to her future. It is 1928, and Clara is teaching at the lauded Grand Central School of Art. Though not even the prestige of the school can override the public's disdain for a "woman artist", fiery Clara is single-minded in her quest to achieve every creative success - even while juggling the affections of two very different men. But she and her bohemian friends have no idea that they'll soon be blindsided by the looming Great Depression...and that even poverty and hunger will do little to prepare Clara for the greater tragedy yet to come. By 1974, the terminal has declined almost as sharply as Virginia Clay's life. Dilapidated and dangerous, Grand Central is at the center of a fierce lawsuit: Is the once-grand building a landmark to be preserved, or a cancer to be demolished? For Virginia, it is simply her last resort. Recently divorced, she has just accepted a job in the information booth in order to support herself and her college-age daughter, Ruby. But when Virginia stumbles upon an abandoned art school within the terminal and discovers a striking watercolor, her eyes are opened to the elegance beneath the decay. She embarks on a quest to find the artist of the unsigned masterpiece - an impassioned chase that draws Virginia not only into the battle to save Grand Central but deep into the mystery of Clara Darden, the famed 1920s illustrator who disappeared from history in 1931.  ungekürzt.

    Im Kernschatten des Mondes - Die unbekannten Heldinnen der NASA
    "Wie konnte ein weibliches Gehirn eine derart analytische Arbeit wie Mathematik verrichten?"Sie galten als menschliche Computer und ebneten der Menschheit den Weg auf den Mond.Lange bevor der amerikanische Astronaut John Glenn die Erde in einem Raumschiff umkreisen und Neil Armstrong auf dem Mond spazieren konnte, berechnete eine Gruppe engagierter Mathematikerinnen mit Bleistift, Lineal und Rechenmaschinen die Formeln für die später größten Erfolge der Raumfahrtgeschichte.Die afroamerikanischen Frauen unter ihnen, die von der Raumfahrtbehörde in den 1930er- und 1940er-Jahren aus Personalnot eingestellt wurden, zählten zu den klügsten Köpfen ihrer Generation. Doch die harschen Bestimmungen der Rassentrennung machten ihnen die Arbeit in der von Männern dominierten Institution, die als NASA zu Weltruhm gelangen wird, doppelt schwer.Niemand kannte bisher ihre Namen. Erst als Margot Lee Shetterly, deren Vater als Ingenieur ebenfalls dort arbeitete, fünfzig Jahre später von ihnen hört und ihre Geschichte aufschreibt, wird klar: Ohne Dorothy Vaughan, Mary Jackson, Katherine Johnson und Christine Darden wären die Apollo-Missionen nie möglich gewesen.Ein packendes Buch über die wahren Sterne der amerikanischen Raumfahrt, in der rückständige Rassenpolitik auf technischen Fortschritt trifft.
