Brutal , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 493min
A bereaved husband is faced with a devastating choice in this gritty thriller from the top 10 best-selling author Mandasue Heller. When Frank Peter’s wife, Maureen, dies, he feels that his once-idyllic life on the Yorkshire Moors is over. And with a daughter emigrating to Australia and a son who has his own marital problems, Frank feels resigned to a life of loneliness. Then one night he finds a frightened young woman hiding at the back of his farmhouse. She explains that her name is Irena, and she was brought to this country by a man who promised her the world and then forced her into prostitution. Frank offers her a bed for the night, but it’s the middle of winter, and when heavy snowfall prevents her from leaving the next day, he’s forced to extend the invitation. But the longer Irena stays, the easier it gets for the men she’s trying to escape from to find her. People trafficking could just be the tip of the iceberg, and Frank has no idea what these people are really capable of. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Colleen Prendergast.

From Luke, she learns her husband hid a secret life, one with ramifications that will change her own. Sarah's family, concerned for her and the future of her twins, encourages her to marry again. It should make sense - but Sarah’s heart says no. She feels trapped. Should she marry a man she doesn't love? Or discover if her growing interest in Luke can be trusted?

Prettyboy Must Die: A Novel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 433min
From beloved YA author Kimberly Reid comes an exciting new audiobook that will speak to young listeners. A CIA prodigy's cover is blown when he accidentally becomes an Internet sensation in #Prettyboy Must Die, a fun, fast thriller inspired by the #Alexfromtarget story. When Peter Smith’s classmate snaps a picture of him during a late night run at the track, Peter thinks he might be in trouble. When she posts that photo - along with the caption “See the Pretty Boy Run” - Peter knows he’s in trouble. But when hostiles drop through the ceiling of his sixth-period chem class, Peter’s pretty sure his trouble just became a national emergency. Because he’s not really Peter Smith. He’s Jake Morrow, former foster kid turned CIA operative. After a massive screw-up on his first mission, he's on a pity assignment, a dozen hit lists and now, social media, apparently. As #Prettyboy, of all freaking things. His cover’s blown, his school’s under siege, and if he screws up now, #Prettyboy will become #Deadboy faster than you can say "15 minutes of fame". Trapped in a high school with rabid killers and rabid fans, he’ll need all his training and then some to save his job, his school and, oh yeah, his life. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Ghostly Wedding : A Harper Harlow Mystery, Book 17 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 416min
Harper Harlow and Jared Monroe fell in love fast and hard. Finally, their big day is here. They just need to solve a murder before they exchange their vows and take the next step to happily ever after. Peter Humphrey, an insurance salesman from a neighboring town, appeared to be minding his own business when a woman came out of nowhere and struck him down while he was crossing the street. Harper witnessed the accident and vows to solve the murder before it’s time to leave on her honeymoon. It might take more work than she realizes, though. Peter was a normal guy, a father who doted on his daughter and was friendly with his ex-wife, and yet somehow he had a secret. His ghost points Harper toward Montgomery Manor, toward a woman who suffered her own tragedy almost two decades before. On paper, Peter’s murder and the Montgomery tragedy shouldn’t be connected…and yet they are. It’s up to Jared and Harper to figure out how if they want to enjoy their wedding and what comes after…and they’re both determined to do it. Some things are meant to be. Harper and Jared believe their union is one of those things. Prepare yourselves, because this is one wedding you’ll never forget. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Angel Clark.

Final Witness , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 604min
A gripping courtroom drama combining psychological suspense and political intrigue from the pen of ex-barrister-turned-crime novelist Simon Tolkien, grandson of J.R.R. Tolkien. It’s the trial - and scandal - of the decade: Greta Grahame, the beautiful young wife of Minister of defence Sir Peter Robinson, is accused of conspiring to murder her predecessor, Peter’s first wife, Anne. The prosecution case depends heavily on the evidence of one witness - Greta’s sixteen-year-old stepson, Thomas. A dreamy, bookish boy, Thomas was present but hidden on the night two men broke into their ancestral home, The House of the Four Winds, and killed his mother. His testimony steadfastly links Greta to the hitmen. But the boy’s motives are unclear. Is he so crazed by grief that he would frame his stepmother for murder? Or are his feelings toward Greta more complicated than anyone realizes? Might he actually be jealous of his father, jealous enough to destroy what remains of his own family? Or is he telling the truth - that this cunning young woman will stop at nothing in her pursuit of wealth and status? Simon Tolkien combines compelling courtroom drama and classic psychological suspense in this sharply etched page-turner. Previously published in 2003 as The Stepmother. ungekürzt. Language: English.
