Crush , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 271min
Caleb Rush, aka Crush, is the toughest, coolest bodyguard/bouncer in Los Angeles, a man who lives strictly by his own moral code, which doesn't exactly hew to the standards of US law. When Amelia Trask, the wild daughter of a scruples-free billionaire tycoon, comes to Crush for help, his quiet life roars into overdrive, and he has to use his wits, brawn, martial-arts training, and knowledge of the Russian Mafia to stay alive and clean up the mess that young Amelia has created. Crush is a rollicking ride through LA, full of action, suspense, memorable characters, and a sly wit. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Peter Berkrot.

Raffles: The Amateur Cracksman , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 319min
Raffles is Sherlock Holmes' polar opposite, a foil for great detectives and a man with all the immoral charms of a hero-thief, plus a remarkable ability at cricket. Raffles is the godson of Robin Hood, the model for Cary Grant in "To Catch a Thief," and the inspiration of Leslie Charteris' "The Saint." As the great reinvention of the trickster for the 20th century, Raffles convinces readers to throw away their scruples and follow along for wit, bold adventures, and thrilling suspense.Perhaps it's fitting that Hornung's character Raffles is often compared with Sherlock Holmes, since E.W. Hornung was the brother-in-law of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle! ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Walter Covell. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/jimc/000024/bk_jimc_000024_sample.mp3.

Charles I: An Abbreviated Life: Penguin Monarchs, Book 4 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 209min
Penguin presents the audiobook edition of Charles I: An Abbreviated Life by Mark Kishlansky, read by John Sackville. The tragedy of Charles I dominates one of the most strange and painful periods in British history as the whole island tore itself apart over a deadly, entangled series of religious and political disputes. In Mark Kishlansky's brilliant account, it is never in doubt that Charles created his own catastrophe, but he was nonetheless opposed by men with far fewer scruples and less consistency who for often quite contradictory reasons conspired to destroy him. This is a remarkable portrait of one of the most talented, thoughtful, loyal, moral, artistically alert and yet, somehow, disastrous of all this country's rulers. ungekürzt. Language: English.

The Hound of Hell (eBook, ePUB)
This is the story of a former priest with a dark past, a murky present and an intense life. As a young man he inspired a famous Beatles song, Eleanor Rigby. He still likes to brag about it when he ends up drunk in a bar... But that was a long time ago. Things have changed a lot since then. He is no longer a pastor of souls: his license was revoked. Now he is a free-lance mercenary: he works for the Vatican as well as for the Mormon secret services, who want to establish a military base in Europe. He also traffics in relics. Father McKenzie has no scruples and that makes him get into trouble so, from time to time, he has to hide among the sisters of the Valley of Marijuana or in the Black Queen Café owned by his friend Father Flanagan. And he continues to preach in a troubled world, although in his own particular way.- Shop: buecher

A City Dreaming , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 711min
M is a drifter with a sharp tongue, few scruples, and limited magical ability who would prefer drinking artisanal beer to involving himself in the politics of the city.
