Much More Than Just the Inner Flame , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 51min, (USK 18)
This time, my foot made contact with her skin and stayed there. She slumped further in her seat, allowing me to explore just a little bit further up along the inside of her thigh. I felt the leather of her skirt, and I easily bypassed that and worked my way closer and closer to the heated surface I could feel on my toes.I still had my hands gripping her wrist, and in a moment to save face, she tried to pull away to no avail. “I don’t know what you...I don’t know...I don’t know anything anymore.” I had her tripping over her own words, and then I allowed her that momentary respite when the food arrived.Warning - This audiobook contains steamy romance scenes and is not suitable for all ages. ungekürzt.

Murder at Hassle High , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 395min
Maria Bruno arrives at the office of Principal Booth for a meeting and all is quiet. Slumped over a table, Mrs. Booth has a letter opener sticking out of her back. Maria calls the police, and in walks Detective Viola, tall, dark, and handsome. Viola cautions Maria to not investigate the case. They will, of course, wind up working together. Viola will need all the help he can get: A student is stabbed during a rehearsal of Hamlet, and Maria becomes a target of the mysterious killer. Things heat up when we learn that Mrs. Booth was planning to retire - with a substantial financial cushion.

Death in the Clouds: A Hercule Poirot Mystery , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 378min
From seat number nine, Hercule Poirot is almost ideally placed to observe his fellow air travelers on this short flight from Paris to London. Over to his right sits a pretty young woman, clearly infatuated with the man opposite. Ahead, in seat number 13, is the Countess of Horbury, horribly addicted to cocaine and not doing too good a job of concealing it. Across the gangway in seat number eight, a writer of detective fiction is being troubled by an aggressive wasp. Yes, Poirot is almost ideally placed to take it all in - except that the passenger in the seat directly behind him has slumped over in the course of the flight ... dead. Murdered. By someone in Poirot's immediate proximity. And Poirot himself must number among the suspects. This title was previously published as Death in the Air. ungekürzt. Language: English.

The Uninvited , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 534min
1777: In the throes of the Revolutionary War, Landon Mansion is commandeered by British Lord “Butcher” Bedford. He stabs Lucy Tarleton — who spurned his king and his love — leaving her to die in her father’s arms. Now: After the day’s final tour, docent Allison Leigh makes her rounds while locking up…and finds a colleague slumped over Bedford’s desk, impaled on his own replica bayonet. Resident ghosts may be the stock-in-trade of stately Philadelphia homes, but Allison — a noted historian — is indignant at the prospect of “ghost hunters” investigating this apparent murder. Agent Tyler Montague knows his hauntings and his history. But while Allison is skeptical of the newcomer, a second mysterious murder occurs. Has “Butcher” Bedford resurfaced? Or is there another malevolent force at work in Landon Mansion? Wary, yet deeply attracted, Allison has to trust in Tyler and work with him to discover just what uninvited guest — dead or alive — has taken over the house. Or their lives could become history! ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Luke Daniels. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/brll/004072/bk_brll_004072_sample.mp3.

A Nest of Vipers is the 21st novel in Andrea Camilleri's irresistible Inspector Montalbano series. Quite a family, you had to admit! A nest of vipers might be a better description....

To be honest, she would settle for a shower. Or, maybe, a minute to wash her hair and face in peace. A quick splash in the sink would be a start.But lately, life and the demands of motherhood keep getting in the way, and each night ends with her slumped next to a crib or crammed into a toddler bed, still in the milk-stained clothes she threw on that morning, and inching ever closer to losing her tenuous grip on her sanity.Ever the optimist, Libby wakes each day, determined to find space for herself and an unoccupied hour in which she can simply soak in a hot bath in silence. And though her days leave little room for such luxuries, still she has hope that the next day might be different. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Danielle Botz.
