    Behind Prison Bars: A Medical Thriller , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 606min
    Samantha Owens applied for the vacant position offered by the State of Texas prison officials for a Registered Nurse with obstetrical experience to work in their OB clinic. After her somewhat frightening orientation what she actually ended up working was the night shift position making her responsible for over 900 inmates in the women's correctional facility. Facing the challenges of triaging pregnant inmates and those with multiple medical issues was daunting and often dangerous during the minimally staffed night shift. For Amy Graham who was incarcerated for writing hot checks, the challenges ranged from simple embarrassment and loneliness to the horrors of being a relatively innocent victim of the dangerous women around her. Although this novel is a work of fiction and the characters' names have been changed to protect the author, Samantha Owens experiences are based on actual incidents that happened to the author when she worked as a nurse in a women's correctional facility. ungekürzt.

    Lindsay Rice is a school teacher who moved to Miami for the beach and sun. But a teacher's salary doesn't cover the cost of living. She takes a job at the Kingfish Club, the professional baseball team's exclusive club for fans with lots of money. Good tips and good times, she enjoys working there. Always conscientious, she is aware that the waitresses are not allowed to date the customers. When Samwell Graffton, a man she assumes is a financial advisor of some sort, asks her out, she repeatedly tells him no. Samwell doesn't give up easily, though. There's something about Lindsay that calls to him. Part of that siren call is the fact that she has no idea he's the starting quarterback for the Miami Sharks. She's no groupie, only after his money, and he admires the fact that she works two jobs to make ends meet. Will they find true love? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Ayelet Sror.

His first complete novel, Boogie and Bill: A Black Man's Life with the White Devil, is soon to be released. About this short story: In only the second year after the hardware/software breakthrough that allowed human beings and dogs to communicate finally, an aging shih tzu came into the local office of Dog/Human Relations and requested to be placed in protective custody so an investigation into the murder of a dog he once knew could be undertaken. After listening to his story, the three-person, two-dog panel decided to honor the shih tzu's request, placed him in protective custody, and summoned a grand jury to decide if there was enough cause to proceed with criminal charges against the dead canine's owner. The enclosed is the transcript of that grand jury, its proceedings, and recommendations. How will the grand jury rule in this matter? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Ayelet Sror.

    Love and Other Impossible Pursuits, Hörbuch, Digital, 368min
    With wry candor and tender humor, acclaimed novelist Ayelet Waldman has crafted a strikingly beautiful novel for our time, tackling the absurdities of modern life and reminding us why we love some people no matter what. For Emilia Greenleaf, life is by turns a comedy of errors and an emotional minefield. Yes, she's a Harvard Law grad who married her soulmate. Yes, they live in elegant comfort on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. But with her one-and-only, Jack, came a stepson, a know-it-all preschooler named William who has become her number one responsibility every Wednesday afternoon. With William, Emilia encounters a number of impossible pursuits, such as the pursuit of cab drivers who speed away when they see William's industrial-strength car seat and the pursuit of lactose-free, strawberry-flavored, patisserie-quality cupcakes, despite the fact that William's allergy is a figment of his over-protective mother's imagination. As much as Emilia wants to find common ground with William, she becomes completely preoccupied when she loses her newborn daughter. After this, the sight of any child brings her to tears, and Wednesdays with William are almost impossible. When his unceasing questions turn to the baby's death, Emilia is at a total loss. Doesn't anyone understand that self-pity is a full-time job? Ironically, it is only through her blundering attempts to bond with William that she finally heals herself and learns what family really means. Language: English. Narrator: Susan Denaker.
