Candle Flame (eBook, ePUB)
Once again Athelstan must enter the murky world of murder, where nothing is as it seems.February, 1381. London lies frozen in the grip of one of the bitterest winters on record. The ever-rising taxes demanded by the Regent, John of Gaunt, are causing increasing resentment among the city's poor. The seething unrest boils over into a bloody massacre at a splendid Southwark tavern, The Candle Flame, in which nine people, including Gaunt's tax collectors, are brutally murdered. The furious Regent orders Brother Athelstan to get to the bottom of the matter. For not only has Gaunt's treasure trove been stolen, he has reason to believe a French spy is active along the Thames, carefully recording for his masters the state of English war cogs. And a professional assassin, Beowulf, who has sworn vengeance against Gaunt and his minions, also stalks the shadows... An exceptional tale of mystery and the underworld from a master of the genre, perfect for fans of Bernard Cornwell, S G MacLean and C. J. Sansom.- Shop: buecher

Graven Image , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 260min
Have we advanced so far that we have arrived full circle with the technology of ancient times? Dr. James Bartlow thinks so. Appointed by the president of the United States to head the country's first national center for live fetal-tissue research, Bartlow stumbles upon an ancient, unknown technology that he believes will open the gateway to a whole new paradigm - one that reveals an ancient and forbidden method of gaining access to every unanswered question. It has remained buried for over 4,000 years, only to be brought forth by the latest medical discovery. Sariah Thackner is a beautiful, brilliant, and successful Washington, D.C. socialite, who, through her own choice, gets drawn into Bartlow's net of deception. With all the cogs in place, Bartlow is prepared to stop at nothing to acquire unbridled power, never before achieved by mortal man. Hawthorne gives us a chilling glimpse of a whole new fear...that just could be true! He captures the spirit, flair, and writing zeal of his "great-cousin" descendent and one of America's greatest authors, Nathaniel Hawthorne. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Doug Lorber.

Winter's Reach: The Revanche Cycle Volume 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 684min
Pope Benignus is dying, and the man who takes his throne will hold the reins of an empire. Conspiracies swirl like shadows around Livia, the pope's daughter, who refuses to be anyone's pawn: chasing the whispers of a deadly coup, she vows to expose the truth and save her church from disaster. Livia has secrets of her own, though, and one wrong move could cost her life and her soul. Felix is the scion of a dying merchant house, a man with just one chance to save his family and the woman he loves. His last hope lies in the snowbound hell of Winter's Reach, a former prison colony turned "free city" under a brutal tyrant's reign. Livia and Felix have never crossed paths, but they've both been snared in a far greater web than they can imagine. They - along with a pair of veteran bounty hunters, an exiled politician, and a sadistic coven of witches - are cogs in one man's apocalyptic plan for revenge. A plan that, if it succeeds, will leave an entire nation in flames. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Susannah Jones.

The Creature from Jekyll Island: A Second Look at the Federal Reserve , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1461min
This classic expose of the Fed has become one of the best-selling books in its category of all time. Where does money come from? Where does it go? Who makes it?

Just wait. You'll be hooked in five minutes. It reads like a detective story - which it really is, but it's all true. This book is about the most blatant scam of history.

Putting it quite simply, this may be the most important book on world affairs you will ever read. The 5th Edition includes a no-holds barred analysis of bank bailouts under the Bush and Obama Administrations that are shown to be nothing less than legalized plunder of the American people.
