Shadows of the Workhouse: The Drama of Life in Postwar London, Hörbuch, Digital, 305min
The inspiration for the second series of the BBC's phenomenally popular Call the Midwife, starring Miranda Hart. In this follow-up to Call the Midwife, Jennifer Worth, a midwife working in the docklands area of East London in the 1950s, tells more stories about the people she encountered. There's Jane, who cleaned and generally helped out at Nonnatus House - she was taken to the workhouse as a baby and was allegedly the illegitimate daughter of an aristocrat. Peggy and Frank's parents both died within six months of one another, and the children were left destitute. At the time there was no other option for them but the workhouse. The Reverend Thornton-Appleby-Thorton, a missionary in Africa, visits the Nonnatus nuns, and Sister Julienne acts as matchmaker. And Sister Monica Joan, the eccentric 90-year-old nun, is accused of shoplifting some small items from the local market. She is let off with a warning, but then Jennifer finds stolen jewels from Hatton Garden in the nun's room. These stories give a fascinating insight into the resilience and spirit that enabled ordinary people to overcome their difficulties. Language: English. Narrator: Anne Reid.

Getting Played: Heart of Fame, Book 7 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 378min, (USK 18)
It all starts with sex under a desk. After yet another month without a lead singer, the band Synergy is on the verge of calling it quits. Which drives Jaxon Campbell, keyboardist and perpetual player, to do something dangerous: hit up a woman with contacts - and curves - in all the right places. Trouble is the last time he saw her, he kind of broke her heart. And stole her cherished autographed AC/DC album. Natalie Thorton, dean of the Sydney Conservatorium of Music, knows everyone who's anyone in Australia's music industry. She's driven and utterly professional and doesn't have room in her schedule for relationships. When Jaxon strides into her office, all of Natalie's suppressed sexual urges - the ones born in Jax's arms - surge to the surface. He wants something from her? Well, she wants something from him. Orgasms. Lots of them. How can Jax say no? He's never forgotten her, and it's not like they're going to fall in love. But just who's playing who? And whose heart is going to fall first? Warning: Contains a sexual challenge involving sex in public places, sex in private places, sex in moving cars, sex against windows and sex in the company of an oblivious federal politician. So basically we're talking about getting laid. A lot. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Muffy Newtown. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/inbl/000061/bk_inbl_000061_sample.mp3.
