    Jane and the Waterloo Map: Being a Jane Austen Mystery , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 532min
    The 13th installment in Stephanie Barron's fan favorite Being a Jane Austen Mystery series. Between novels, Victorian England's most beloved author doubles as a sleuth in often idyllic locales. November 1815. The Battle of Waterloo has left the British economy in shreds; Henry Austen, Jane's favorite brother, is about to declare bankruptcy. The crisis destroys Henry's health, and Jane flies to his London bedside. While she is there, the Reverend James Stanier Clarke, chaplain to His Royal Highness the Prince Regent, invites Jane to Carlton House, the Prince's fabulous London home. Jane only accepts because many of Henry's bad loans were given by the Prince Regent's cronies. She hopes to intercede with the Regent on Henry's behalf, but before she can speak to him, she stumbles upon a dying man in the library - Colonel Ivor MacFarland, who, with a knife in his entrails, utters a single failing phrase: "the Waterloo map"...and Jane is on the hunt for a treasure of incalculable value and a killer of considerable cunning. ungekürzt.

    He's rough, he's dirty, and he's not going to be gentle.When I took a job on an oil rig to escape my scheming stepfather's efforts to set me up with one of his business cronies, I knew I'd be working with rugged men. What I didn't expect is to find myself bent over a desk, my cheeks soaked with tears and my bare thighs wet for a very different reason, as my well-punished bottom is thoroughly used by a stern, infuriatingly sexy roughneck.Even though I should have known better than to get sassy with a firm-handed cowboy, let alone a tough-as-nails former Marine, there's no denying that learning the hard way was every bit as hot as it was shameful. But a sore, welted backside is just the start of his plans for me, and no matter how much I blush to admit it, I know I'm going to take everything he gives me and beg for more.Publisher's Note: Roughneck includes spankings and sexual scenes. If such material offends you, please don't buy this book. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Thomas Locklear. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/195830/bk_acx0_195830_sample.mp3.

    Mother Night
    London, 1727 - and Tom Hawkins is about to fall from his heaven of card games, brothels and coffee-houses to the hell of a debtors' prison. The Marshalsea is a savage world of its own, with simple rules: those with family or friends who can lend them a little money may survive in relative comfort. Those with none will starve in squalor and disease. And those who try to escape will suffer a gruesome fate at the hands of the gaol's rutheless governor and his cronies. The trouble is, Tom Hawkins has never been good at following rules - even simple ones. And the recent grisly murder of a debtor, Captain Roberts, has brought further terror to the gaol. While the Captain's beautiful widow cries for justice, the finger of suspicion points only one way: to the sly, enigmatic figure of Samuel Fleet. Some call Fleet a devil, a man to avoid at all costs. But Tom Hawkins is sharing his cell. Soon, Tom's choice is clear: get to the truth of the murder - or be the next to die. A twisting mystery, a dazzling evocation of early 18th Century London, THE DEVIL IN THE MARSHALSEA is a thrilling debut novel full of intrigue and suspense.

    You, my friend, have been hacked. It begins with the name JONAS W. on the side of a cardboard coffin - right before the funeral procession blows up. Then it's the whisper in the back of Micah's head: Your father betrayed his country. You can't always trust your own brain. Not when you have one of the mayor's mandatory chips in your skull. Micah knows that the chip developed by TFC (the corporation that runs the Therapeutic Forgetting Clinics) does more than just erase unpleasant memories - it implants new ones. The MemeCast warns citizens to "fight the hack." Micah and his friends have each lost something - a parent, a relationship, a home, maybe even their own identities as they remembered them to be. But, together, they can make sure some things are never forgotten. Election Day is coming, and Mayor Mignon is set to be elected to Congress. It's time to build a new electronic frontier, one that's not controlled by the mayor and his cronies. It's time to get out the vote and shake up the system. It's time to finally say enough. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Amy McFadden, Alexander Cendese. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/brll/006206/bk_brll_006206_sample.mp3.

    The Motive: A Dismas Hardy Novel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 878min
    It starts with a double homicide. Because of the high profiles of the victims - a politically connected socialite and his glamorous fiancée - the mayor of San Francisco herself demands that a high-ranking detective be put on the case. And so Abe Glitsky is thrust into the controversial investigation. Dan Cuneo, the officer already working the case, is immediately wary of Glitsky and doesn't hide his distrust. Matters are made worse when Cuneo starts to focus on his primary suspect - who also happens to be an old girlfriend of Dismas Hardy. For Hardy and Glitsky, this is an awkward and uncomfortable coincidence. But for Cuneo, it's proof positive of collusion, and yet another instance of Glitsky cheating with his insider friends and cronies. Convinced that Hardy's client is the wrong suspect, Glitsky breaks ranks within the police department to continue his own investigation. As Hardy's murder trial builds to its stunning conclusion, Glitsky's search for the truth does more than fuel suspicion against the two men. It reveals a trail of deception that leads beyond San Francisco, where exposing desperate secrets can be the most deadly offense. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: David Colacci.
