Kill the Angel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 978min
The second novel from the acclaimed author of Kill the Father, this thriller is multilayered, complex, full of twists and turns and satisfyingly dark - one of those novels you just have to listen to late into the night. A high-speed train from Milan draws into the station in Rome, and an horrific discovery in one carriage rocks the city. Preliminary investigations are put in the hands of Deputy Police Commissioner Colomba Caselli. The police receive a message claiming responsibility for the act and announcing more murders to come, and they duly turn their attention to a small terrorist group of Islamic extremists. But investigator Dante Torre does not believe this angle. For him, this feels like a smokescreen concealing the actions of a killer who has a far more terrible motivation to continue. The trail leads to Berlin and Venice, where the waters of the Venetian Lagoon will turn blood red.... ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Cassandra Campbell.

The Aztec UFO Incident: The Case, Evidence, and Elaborate Cover-Up of One of the Most Perplexing Crashes in History , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 630min
The Aztec UFO Incident - the first ever widely publicized report of a recovered flying saucer - was derided as a hoax for decades. But now the Ramseys and Frank Thayer reveal the exact spot where the craft landed and show how the 100-foot-diameter saucer was moved to a secret laboratory. Witnesses to the incident who were interviewed by the authors affirm that they were sworn to secrecy by the military. The authors also reveal the names of scientists who worked on the craft after its recovery. Also discussed are previously unseen documents from the CIA, FBI, US Air Force, and US Army that constituted a cover-up whose sole purpose was to surround the Aztec story with a smokescreen of lies, misinformation, and destructive allegations. Roswell is no longer the only proven flying saucer recovery we know about. The Aztec UFO Incident is a must-listen for historians and UFO students alike. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Tommy has come home from the city to visit his dad for one last time. He is determined to get to the bottom of all of the secrets that his dad has kept for hidden behind a smokescreen of storytelling and charm. It turns out that some secrets are best left untold. Not Just Any Old Ghost Story... is a quiet little story about coming home and ghosts that you can never escape and a love that never dies. It is a story that will take you to the very heart of storytelling itself. "If Harlan Ellison, Richard Matheson and Robert Bloch had a three-way sex romp in a hot tub and then a team of scientists came in and filtered out the water and mixed the leftover DNA into a test tube, the resulting genetic experiment would most likely grow up into Steve Vernon." - Bookgasm "Steve Vernon was born to write. He's the real deal and we are lucky to have him." - Richard Chizmar, Cemetery Dance "This genre needs new blood and Steve Vernon is quite a transfusion." - Edward Lee, author of The Good and Header ungekürzt.

Toxic Seduction: Romantic Secret Agents Series, Book 3 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 249min
As an MI-5 agent, Christine was the newest member of the London Anti-Terrorism Task Force. There was a terrorist attack with a lot of casualties by bomb blasts, which forced the United States to send one of their CIA Special Ops Agents, Jason, to track the bomber responsible. One look at him was all it took Christine to want to partner up, even though Jason doesn't let women come in the way of his job. But there's something about Christine that does, in fact, divert his attention. The longer he works on the case with Christine, the harder it gets to resist their desires, on and off duty. Tracking the bomber, they realize that it was just a smokescreen for one of the largest cover diamond heists in the past decade. They find that Warick, Jason's contact in the diamond business, was behind the attack. It does look like Jason was giving the enemy information when they get caught in an ambush. Will Christine's instincts overcome her thoughts, or will her feelings for Jason cloud her judgment? Christine doesn't have much to go on except faith in Jason, but will she risk her life to save his, along with thousands of innocent people? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Sarah Puckett.

Do Less Be More: How to Slow Down and Make Space for What Really Matters , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 241min
Unleash your greatest potential by slowing down and doing less. At a time when being busy is worn as a badge of honour and we are accustomed to filling every waking moment with (often useless or unpleasant) activity, Do Less Be More explores why switching off, or at the very least slowing down, is vital to ensure we achieve what we want. Busyness is a barrier to self-reflection, a hindrance to novel solutions and a smokescreen to clarity. While cramming in one more task may feel useful, productive or even satisfying, it's not always the best use of a spare moment. In fact it will inevitably lead us to a place where we become less productive, less creative, less inspired and less satisfied with life. While we might think we don't have any space in our lives to do more of what is important to us, Do Less Be More offers listeners 21 activities to reclaim even the tiniest moments, like waiting for a coffee, to rest their brains and, in so doing, rediscover insight, inspiration and fresh ideas. Learn how to ban busy and focus on what really matters with practical ways to say no and embrace silence, space and solitude. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Susan Pearse, Martina Sheehan.
