    Facing a long jail sentence, a woman takes a dangerous job for the New York Police Department Lydia Constanza is not cut out for prison. Since she came to the United States from Cuba, she’s twice been convicted as an accomplice to a violent crime, and done two short stints in jail. The second time, her nerves went, and she vowed never to return. Back on the outside and living in New York with a five-year-old daughter, Lydia and her boyfriend hold up a check-cashing place, tripping the silent alarm and landing, once again, in handcuffs.

Two cops have just been killed at a traffic stop, and Walter F. X. Forster is not going to lose any more men. Informants like Lydia are the lieutenant’s last chance to stop the bleeding.

    The Terror Factory: Inside the FBI's Manufactured War on Terrorism , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 439min
    A groundbreaking work of investigative journalism, The Terror Factory: Inside the FBI's Manufactured War on Terrorism exposes how the FBI has, under the guise of engaging in counterterrorism since 9/11, built a network of more than 15,000 informants whose primary purpose is to infiltrate Muslim communities to create and facilitate phony terrorist plots so that the Bureau can then claim it is winning the war on terror. An outgrowth of Trevor Aaronson's work as an investigative reporting fellow at the University of California, Berkeley, which culminated in an award-winning cover story in Mother Jones magazine, The Terror Factory reveals shocking information about the criminals, con men, and liars the FBI uses as paid informants - including the story of an accused murderer who has become one of the Bureau's most prolific terrorism snitches - as well as documenting the extreme methods the FBI uses to ensnare Muslims in terrorist plots, which are in reality conceived and financed by the FBI. The book also offers unprecedented detail into how the FBI has transformed from a reactive law enforcement agency to a proactive counterterrorism organization that traps hapless individuals in manufactured terrorist plots in order to justify the $3 billion it spends every year fighting terrorism. ungekürzt.

    Fortune Cookies Always Lie: The Gumshoe Diaries, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 387min
    This brilliant new detective series introduces Los Angeles' latest gumshoe. For those who have been waiting for the next Phillip Marlowe, Sam Spade, Mike Hammer, or Jim Rockford, the wait is over! Author Nicholas Sheridan Stanton unveils the latest result of his chronically leaky cranium in a clever new detective series he's calling the Gumshoe Diaries. In the first audiobook, The Gumshoe Diaries: Fortune Cookies Always Lie, he introduces us to Whitey Roode, a shaggy but likeable former LAPD gold shield who turned private investigator after (as he tells it) being invited to retire by the brass. Stanton then takes us on a wheels-within-wheels scavenger hunt for the killer - or killers - of pretty Mei Li Teng (a.k.a Sally November), the not-so-innocent niece of Whitey's close friends and occasionally accurate snitches, Jai Lai and Lu Rong. The quirky Asian couple owns a trendy and ridiculously popular New York - style delicatessen downtown in the heart of Los Angeles called Show-M-U-Lyke-M. They hire Whitey to find out whodunit to little Miss Sally. As it turns out, the college education her uncles thought they were sponsoring is far more dangerous than the standard three Rs. ungekürzt.

    Grumpy Old Christmas, Hörbuch, Digital, 187min
    So...'tis the season to be jolly, is it? Well, not in the household of the Grumpy Old Man it isn't. In the case of the GOM, 'tis the season to have to put up with even deeper layers of vexation than usual, and the only thing worth celebrating is that it looks as though you might, after all, be surviving to the end of what has been another crap year. Everything about Christmas gets up our snitches. Everything. From the breakfast telly presenters who tell us it's now just 120 shopping days to go, to the annual festive strike by airport baggage handlers. From office parties where drunken juniors have waited the whole year to tell you what "the trouble with you is...", to parents videoing their precocious brats at the atrocious school nativity play, where your kid is playing the part of the donkey's rear end. From the woman next door who drops in to show your wife the diamond ring her prat of a husband has bought her, to the 150th opportunity to see Whistle Down the Wind on the telly. And speaking of wind, there's the festive Xmas turkey that tastes like blotting paper soaked in a puddle and sends your digestive system to hell. And how on earth are we really supposed to look happy when someone buys us a tie with a picture of xxxxing Santa on it? Eh? The highly successful "Grumpies" return full of the Christmas spirit.

    Actual Innocence, Hörbuch, Digital, 308min
    A nightmare from a thousand B-movies: A horrible crime is committed in your neighborhood, and the police knock on your door. A witness swears you are the perpetrator; you have no alibi, and no one believes your protestations of innocence. You're convicted, sentenced to hard time in maximum security, or even death row, where you await the executioner's needle. Tragically, this is no movie script, but reality for hundreds of American citizens. Our criminal justice system is broken, and people from all walks of life have been destroyed by its failures. But science, and a group of incredibly dedicated crusaders are working to repair the damage. In the last ten years, DNA testing has uncovered some stone-cold proof that 65 completely innocent people were sent to prison and death row. But the criminal justice system only frees prisoners in cases where there is physical evidence after a torturous legal process. Incredibly, according to many trial judges, "actual innocence" is not grounds for release from prison. At the Innocence Project, Barry Scheck and Peter Neufeld have helped to free 37 wrongly-convicted people, and have taken up the cause of hundreds more. Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist Jim Dwyer has been covering innocence cases for a decade. In Actual Innocence, Scheck, Neufeld, and Dwyer relate the harrowing stories of ten innocent men - convicted by sloppy police work, corrupt prosecutors, jailhouse snitches, mistaken eyewitnesses, and other all-too-common flaws of the trial system - and tell of the heroic efforts to free them.

Well, that's how it is for Latisha Lovely and her roommate, Lexi. With nothing but money on their minds, the two agree to take part in a more lucrative hustle than stripping.

    What My Eyes Could Not See , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 430min
    What My Eyes Could Not See is a memoir. Renee Micklin’s vision was declining from an inherited disorder, but she was totally blindsided by the sheriff’s charisma. Romance seemed unlikely when she met Cooper. However, he was a man of formidable flirtatious charm, and she found herself falling in love. Life became a perpetual adrenaline rush with high-speed motorcycle rides, criminals on drugs, and snitches living on the edge. She felt totally protected by her lawman. Their relationship was long nights of conversations and lovemaking. From the beginning he led her gracefully through public places, helping to conceal the awkwardness that is an unavoidable aspect of being sight-impaired. Tenderly he took her hand and gently led her outside to see the first crocus peek its head through the snow. On the flip side, he was Mr. Hyde threatening to abandon her on country roads when she displeased him. He demanded expensive gifts - guns, a Rolex and a motorcycle - while gifting her with mums from the grocery store. His overriding passion was land, lots of land with her money. After a brief courtship they began living together at his farm. When she moved from suburbia to Green Acres, he introduced her to the beauty of rural life - riding his horse double, enveloped in the warmth of a wood-burning stove and tranquility of the country. What should have been a fairy tale wedding quickly turned to chaos. She did not let this first hint of thorns among the roses dampen her expectations of a happy future with the top cop. A woman progressively blind since childhood can miss the jail being thrown up around her. First to go were family and lifelong friends who stumbled over the sheriff’s unwelcome mat long before she realized it was there. Pressure to spend her assets increased. When an abuser controls family, friends, and money, he’s got it all. Her husband found his dream land, which he expected her to purchase. It was full of clods, stone ungekürzt. Language: English.
