    The Consultant , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 720min
    CompWare is in serious trouble after a promised merger falls through, so they do what other businesses have done to bolster their public image: They hire a consulting firm to review and streamline their business practices. But there's something strange about the firm they hire - more specifically, the quirky gentleman who arrives to supervise the project: Mr. Patoff, tall and thin, wearing a bow tie, and with an odd smile that never quite reaches his eyes. In his first interactions, the consultant asks inappropriate questions and generally seems a nuisance. Over time Patoff gains power to the point where he seems to be running the whole company. He enacts arbitrary and invasive changes to office protocol; he places cameras all over the building, causing paranoia among the workers; he calls employees at all hours of the night; and he visits some of their homes and menaces their families. People who defy the consultant get fired...or worse. The employees of CompWare soon realize they're not just fighting for their jobs: They're fighting for their lives. The Consultant is a biting workplace satire with the horrific touches only Bentley Little could provide. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Ramiz Monsef.

    This Raging Bull Publishing box set contains four classic Western books by Owen Wister: Lin Mclean (1897) Lin Mclean is a collection of stories that follows the life of a Wyoming cowboy. We ride with Lin as he goes in search of variety but ultimately journeys from being a boy into a man. Red Men and White (1895) From Arizona to Idaho, these stories are fictionalized accounts of actual events involving natives, Mexicans, the army, and Mormons, providing a telling argument for the myth and the truth of the Western as we think we know it.

His first challenge as foreman is to enforce a rule of temperance in the camp by forbidding liquor, stored in demijohn containers. The men obey his rule until Christmas festivities weaken their restraint. The Virginian (1902) This classic tells the story of the Wyoming ranch foreman known only as the Virgianian, his courtship of schoolteacher Molly Starkwood, and his encounters with the murdering cattle rustler Trampas, set against the Johnson County War. ungekürzt.

    Gunmetal Gray , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1014min
    Mark Greaney, the New York Times best-selling coauthor of Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan novels, delivers another breakneck thriller following the world's deadliest assassin - the Gray Man. After five years on the run, Court Gentry is back on the inside at the CIA. But his first mission makes him wish he had stayed on the outs when a pair of Chinese agents try to take him down in Hong Kong. Normally the Chinese prefer to stay eyes-only on foreign agents. So why are they on such high alert? Court's high stakes hunt for answers takes him across Southeast Asia and leads to his old friend, Donald Fitzroy, who is being held hostage by the Chinese. Fitzroy was contracted to find Fan Jiang, a former member of an ultra-secret computer warfare unit responsible for testing China's own security systems. And it seems Fan may have been too good at his job - because China wants him dead. The first two kill teams Fitzroy sent to find Fan have disappeared, and the Chinese have decided to "supervise" the next operation. What they don't know is that Gentry's mission is to find Fan first and get whatever intel he has to the US. After that, all he has to do is get out alive. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Mated to the Warriors: The Interstellar Brides, Book 2 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 308min, (USK 18)
    When circumstances leave her with little choice but to volunteer for the Interstellar Bride Program, Hannah Johnson finds herself matched with not one but two mates. Her soon-to-be husbands are warriors of the planet Prillon, a world whose men are known far and wide for their prowess both in battle and in bed. Following her transport to a starship halfway across the galaxy, Hannah awakens in the presence of Zane Deston, the huge, fiercely handsome commander of the Prillon fleet. After informing her that she is now his mate as well as the mate of his second, Zane takes it upon himself to supervise as Hannah is thoroughly and intimately examined. Her failure to properly cooperate with the ship's doctor earns her a painful, embarrassing spanking on her bare bottom, but it is her body's response to the exam that truly leaves her blushing. Though Hannah is shocked by the prospect of being shared by Zane and his second, the equally handsome warrior Dare, she cannot hide her arousal as her two dominant mates take their time in mastering her body. As the day of the claiming ceremony approaches, Hannah begins to long for the moment when Zane and Dare will make her fully theirs, but can she risk giving her heart to men who might die in battle any day? ungekürzt.

    Never Cheat a Holy Man: A Memoir , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 356min
    Never Cheat a Holy Man is my memoir about the three enlightening, adventure-filled years in the mid-'60s when my family and I lived in East Pakistan. As "memsahib", my job was to supervise a Muslim all-male household workforce. When the cook warmed the toast in his armpits and chilled the chicken in the refrigerator - still alive, I realized I was not communicating adequately. I acquired new skills mediating between cook and laundryman who were at constant odds. The 1965 India-Pakistan conflict caused particular concern for my friends and me when we were held at gun point, accused of being spies by Bengali soldiers. The Hindu Holy Man's retracted blessings and getting my sari pulled off by a small boy at a village fair, were just two instances that gave me new understanding of this culture so unlike my own. Despite the poverty and disease I saw, there was much beauty, harmony, and humor to appreciate. - Joyce Mueller About the author: Joyce Mueller, now in her 90s, remembers how it felt to be a Caucasian, English-speaking, non-Muslim nurse, wife, and mother confronting a totally opposite culture. She went from scared and shocked to empathetic and appreciative. Now widowed, Mrs. Mueller lives on the southern Oregon coast. She is still writing poetry and short stories. ungekürzt.
