Deadly Communion , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 646min
A beautiful death. A perfect murder. A sexual predator is at large on the streets of Imperial Vienna and Detective Inspector Oskar Rheinhardt appeals to his friend, psychoanalyst Dr. Max Liebermann, for assistance. Early signs indicate that the killer is no ordinary 'lust murderer' but an entirely new phenomenon, his particular deviance revealing the darker preoccupations of the age. To understand his behaviour, Liebermann must employ the latest developments in psychoanalysis and make a journey into uncharted regions of the human mind. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Darling Days , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 646min
I was born September 1985, in the vortex of the Lower East Side of New York: there were few rules of life and zero constraints on behavior. If you were not eccentric, you were weird. It was a tenement building at the centre of the drug-addled, punk-edged permanent riot that was iO's corner of the Lower East Side of New York City in the '80s and 90's. There iO grew up - or rather scrabbled up - under the broken wing of a fiercely protective yet wildly negligent mother. Rhonna was a showgirl, an actress, a dancer, a poet. A widow by police murder, she was also an addict. She doted and obsessed over iO yet lacked an understanding that a child needs food and sleep and safety. Unfolding in animated, crystalline prose, an emotionally raw, devastatingly powerful memoir of one young person's extraordinary coming of age - a tale of gender and identity, freedom and addiction, rebellion and survival in the 1980s and 1990s, when punk, poverty, heroin and art collided in the urban bohemia of New York's Lower East Side. Darling Days is also a provocative examination of culture and identity, of the instincts that shape us and the norms that deform us and of the courage and resilience of a child listening closely to their deepest self. When a group of boys refuse to let the six-year-old play ball, iO instantly adopts a new persona, becoming a boy named Ricky, a choice the parents support and celebrate. It is the start of a profound exploration of gender and identity through the tenderest years and the beginning of a life invented and reinvented at every step. Alternating between the harrowing and the hilarious, Darling Days is the candid, tough and stirring memoir of a young person in search of an authentic self as family and home life devolve into chaos until iO escapes to Germany and then England to become an amazingly talented, exciting, edgy artist and wonderful writer. ungekürzt.

Wicked Allure , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 646min
What does a man say to the woman he betrayed but never stopped loving? Three years ago, Zachary Steele refused to entertain thoughts of permanency with any woman. A hedonist at heart, he didn't want to corrupt the much younger, Madigan DeLeon, by continuing his affair with her. With the hidden scars of his past, he didn't believe in happily-ever-after. By the time he realized how much Madigan meant to him, he'd driven her away. Then, one night, after being clean for a number of years, Zach briefly falls off the bandwagon. He believes his lovemaking to Madi is a drug-induced hallucination. The resulting consequences tell another story. What does a woman do when the only man she's ever loved hurt her so deeply she feared she'd never recover? Three years after her affair with Zach so abruptly ended, celebutante, Madigan DeLeon, is thrust back into Zach's life by her mother's machinations.

Forced to confront her anger at his betrayal and grief at the loss of what might've been, Madi faces the realization that she's never stopped loving Zach. Can two broken hearts set aside anger and betrayal to find true love once and for all? Searching the deepest recesses of their hearts, in a place where pride and pain has no room, Madi and Zach must decide if their bond is strong enough to take a second chance at love.

Die zweite Frau, Hörbuch, Digital, 646min
Die junge Gräfin Juliane von Trachenberg wird von dem Baron Raoul von Mainau in zweiter Ehe geheiratet, lediglich als Mittel der Rache gegenüber der Herzogin, die ihn einst verschmäht hat. Unwillkommen im neuen Schloss und wegen der roten Haarpracht allseits verspottet, sehnt sich die junge Frau nach ihren Geschwistern und nach ihrer heimlichen Beschäftigung, Pflanzen zu sammeln und abzuzeichnen. Gegen den herrschsüchtigen alten Onkel Raouls und den aufdringlichen Hofprediger behauptet sie sich in der Rolle der kühlen, akkuraten Hauswirtschafterin. Einzig der lebhafte Sohn Leon aus Raouls erster Ehe scheint ihr liebevoll zugetan. Doch da entdeckt sie das Geheimnis des wildromantischen Kashmirtales im Schlosspark, und ihr Schicksal nimmt eine überraschende Wendung... Detailgetreu zeichnet die Autorin jede einzelne ihrer Figuren. Feinsinnig webt sie eine Geschichte in eine höfische Umgebung hinein, in der ernsthafte Kritik sowohl an den festgefügten Familien- und Lebensbedingungen des Adels als auch am überkommenen Ständesystem und an tradierten Hierarchien geschickt verpackt transportiert wird. Somit kann man Eugenie Marlitt durchaus als Wegbereiterin einer stillen Emanzipation deuten. Auch heute noch ist dieser Roman lesenswert: unter historisch-gesellschaftskritischen Gesichtspunkten oder einfach nur als gute, spannend erzählte Geschichte. deutsch.
