    The year was 1981. Just two months into his presidency, Ronald Reagan was shot after leaving a speaking engagement in Washington, DC. The quick action of the Secret Service and medical professionals saved the president's life. Mere days after his near-death experience, Reagan's personal strength propelled him back into his presidential duties. Adapted from Bill O'Reilly's historical thriller Killing Reagan, with characteristically gripping storytelling, this story explores the events of the day Reagan was shot. From the scene of the shooting and the dramatic action of the Secret Service to the FBI's interrogation of the shooter, the life-saving measures of the medical professionals, and the president's extraordinary recovery, this is a pause-resisting account of an attempted assassination and its aftermath. The introduction to this audiobook is read by Bill O'Reilly. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Robert Petkoff. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/aren/002262/bk_aren_002262_sample.mp3.

    In Bill O'Reilly's Legends and Lies: The Real West, each chapter is a standalone account of the life of an individual who was in some way notorious or iconic and lived their life during what is known as the Wild West, a period of the American frontier that spans from 1783 to 1920. Daniel Boone was a survivalist outdoorsman. In 1778 Boone was charged with treason for negotiating a truce between British forces and a Native American tribe. Boone defended himself, and the charges were dismissed. In 1781 Boone ran for state legislature in Virginia and was twice elected to that office. After the Revolutionary War, he joined men fighting against Native Americans who were determined to hold on to their land. He was later robbed of a significant amount of money entrusted to him by Virginia settlers and spent decades selling land to pay it back.

Can Layla and Seth keep up the façade in Chapel Springs this holiday season - for the sake of her career…and his heart? Under normal circumstances, Seth Murphy - the best friend of Layla O'Reilly's ex-fiancé - would be the last person she'd marry. But the news of their upcoming (and phony) nuptials convinces a big client that Layla may be high-society enough to work for his agency - a coup that would put her fledgling home-staging business on the map. Seth has secretly loved Layla for years, even when she was dating his best friend. Maybe she'll never forgive him for the way he hurt her back then, but he has to try. And Layla is willing to keep up their engagement farce until she's landed her client. For Layla, it's the chance to save her career. But for Seth, it's his last chance to win her heart. ungekürzt.

    One of Kristine Kathryn Rusch's most acclaimed short stories becomes one of her most original novels. February, 1964: Two men die in a squalid alley in a bad neighborhood. New York homicide detective Seamus O'Reilly receives the shock of his life when he looks at the men's identification: J. Edgar Hoover, the famous, tyrannical director of the FBI, and his number-one assistant, Clyde Tolson. O'Reilly teams up with FBI agent Frank Bryce to solve the second high-level assassination in only three months. In November of the previous year, someone had assassinated President John F. Kennedy. The cop and the FBI agent must determine if the same shadowy organization committed all three murders. To do so they must act quickly, before some of the nation's most powerful men--from Kennedy's brother, Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy, to the president of the United States, Lyndon Baines Johnson--do something rash to keep Hoover's secrets from ever becoming public. In our world Hoover kept his secrets until long after his death. In Seamus O'Reilly's world, Hoover's secrets get him killed. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jason Brenizer.

    Killing the Rising Sun relates episodes from the Pacific theater of World War II, including the controversial US decision to develop and utilize atomic weapons. Fueled by confidence in their racial superiority, the Japanese exerted great effort to expand their empire throughout East Asia. Once Prime Minister Hideki Tojo convinced Emperor Hirohito to attack Pearl Harbor, war with the United States and the other Allied forces was inevitable. Although Japan had agreed to previous Geneva Conventions, they violated those agreements throughout their war effort. From their pre-World War II invasion of China until after the emperor agreed to surrender, Japanese soldiers committed unspeakable acts, including rape, murder, mutilation of corpses, and enslavement of civilians. The apparent determination of the Japanese emperor to fight an Allied land invasion to the death further escalated the dilemma within the Roosevelt and Truman administrations over whether to use the recently invented atomic bomb.

    Dying is what changed Mary O'Reilly's life. Well, actually, coming back from the dead and having the ability to communicate with ghosts is really what did it. Now, a private investigator in rural Freeport, Illinois, Mary's trying to learn how to incorporate her experience as a Chicago cop and new-found talent into a real job. Her challenge is to solve the mysteries, get real evidence (a ghost's word just doesn't hold up in court), and be sure the folks in town, especially the handsome new police chief, don't think she's nuts. Twenty-four years ago, a young woman drowned in the swimming pool of a newly elected state senator. It was ruled an accident. But now, as the senator prepares to move on to higher positions, the ghost of the woman is appearing to the Senator's wife. Mary is hired to discover the truth behind the death. She unearths a connection between the murder and the disappearance of five little girls whose cases, 24 years later, are still all unsolved. As she digs further, she becomes the next target for the serial killers' quest to tie up all his loose ends. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Erin Spencer.

    I think he was dead before I shot him." With these auspicious words begins a murder mystery so utterly unlike any other that it took 15 of Ireland's finest writers (working well below their peak) to bring it to its unlikely conclusion. The plot involves a mad search for the only manuscript of an unpublished novel by James Joyce, and features a stellar cast - including a sadistic sergeant with the unlikely name of Andy Andrews and the unforgettable mob boss Mrs. Bloom, a woman "who had tried everything but drew the line at honesty." Raucous, raunchy, gratuitously violent and completely hilarious, Yeats Is Dead! is a diabolically entertaining mulligan stew of a novel. James Joyce would be proud. Yeats is Dead! was edited by Joseph O'Connor, whose novels include Cowboys and Indians, Desperadoes, The Salesman and Inishowen. The narrator, Ciraran O'Reilly's, stage performances include The Irish and How They Got That Way, The Corn is Green, and Da, Summer. His film include The Devil's Own and A Further Gesture and he has appeared on television in Law and Order SVU, One Life to Live, and As The World Turns. Authors' royalties are being donated toAmnesty International. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Ciaran O'Reilly.
