    Trapped in the Web: How I Liberated Myself from Internet Addiction, and How You Can Too , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 272min
    Young adults (and plenty of not-so-young adults) are addicted to the Internet. No surprise there. It’s easy for parents and teachers, politicians and pundits to brush off Internet addiction as a harmless, inevitable consequence of the digital age, a small price to pay for carrying the information super-highway around in our pockets. But what if I told you that young adults (and plenty of not-so-young adults) are stuck in a feedback loop of digital sexual stimulation, addicted not just to the Internet but to pornography and social media? And what if I told you that the consequences of these addictions may be quite dire - ranging from depression, anxiety, and ADHD to sexual dysfunction and violence? And what if I told you that, as far as social media companies and pornography producers and anyone who advertises on the Internet is concerned, the feedback loop is exactly where we belong? This audiobook pulls listeners out of the matrix. Part manifesto, part autobiography, part self-help roadmap, Breaking the Feedback Loop is a concise, essential guide to porn and social media addiction written for young adults and anyone else suffering at the hands of the Internet."This is a story of awakening...from the trance induced by all the harmless-seeming distractions of the Internet (social media, news feeds, porn). Turner does a highly readable job of sharing precisely how he unleashed his productivity and creativity. For example, when he eliminated porn, 'There was an immediate domino effect.... I freed up mental resources. I was able to take challenging courses.... I processed information much more quickly using less energy. My memory was crisper, faster. I came up with creative insights more frequently. I attended social events and didn't feel weird, or awkward, or lonely, or creepy. I could carry on a conversation. I could make people laugh.' Best of all, anyone can follow the trail Turner blazes in his book. Why not make your own experiment?" (G ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Kyle Tyler McKinney.

    Shattered Lens: Catherine Winter, Private Investigator: Catherine Winter Series, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 407min
    “Hollywood is glitter and gutter. Some make it to the top and stay there, basking in the splendor of it, while others hit bottom and are engulfed by the ugliness of it.” (Catherine Winter, Private Investigator) In this first audiobook of the Catherine Winter Series, the stalking of two young professional print models leads private investigator Catherine Winter into the dark and dirty shadows of Hollywood's entertainment elite. Portraits of these people become distorted and out of focus as murder, pornography, illicit drugs, and blackmail, color the view while Catherine searches for truth and justice. In her long career Catherine has seen it all and does not flinch when up against the criminal world. She is determined, open minded, and relies on her intuition in investigative work. ungekürzt.

    Yesterday's News , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 458min
    A reporter hires Cuddy to investigate her source’s suspicious death. According to its daily paper, Nasharbor is an idyllic seaside hamlet. But reporter Jane Rust knows better. Investigating a raid on a child pornography ring, she uncovers a web of police corruption built to protect the sickos behind the camera. She writes a story that should blow the lid off the Nasharbor police, but her editors scrub it clean of any reference to corruption, calling her accusations unfounded. Soon after, the cop who tipped her off to the story is dead. Rust hires Boston PI John Francis Cuddy to look into the murder and the cover-up. But prodding small-town cops is like kicking a hornet's nest. By the end of his investigation, more good people will die, and Cuddy will wish he had never heard of sunny, tranquil Nasharbor. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Andy Caploe.
