Sleep till Noon: A Novel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 261min
A rags-to-riches tale so outrageously hysterical, it could have only come from the marvelous mind of Max Shulman, best-selling author of The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis A sensitive boy growing up in a bad neighborhood, Harry Riddle doesn’t fit in with the kids who hold up gas stations, steal purses, and drop safes on policemen. He prefers to contemplate the American dream and his father’s advice for achieving it: “Get rich, boy. Then sleep till noon and screw ’em all.” But when Harry gets his first job as a cafeteria busboy, a customer warns him that money leads to corruption. The idea disturbs him so much that he accidentally sticks his hand into a meat grinder. Luckily, attorney Walter Obispo witnesses Harry’s mishap and manages to win him a hefty court settlement - which becomes a lot less hefty when Obispo takes his eighty percent cut. Impressed, Harry decides to make his fortune in law. But the shortcuts he takes to pass the bar and start his own practice do him no good when he loses case after case after case. Not to worry, however, because our hero soon learns the oldest trick in book: Marry rich. With an heiress as a bride, Harry can’t lose - anything except his friends, his integrity, and his sanity, that is. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Mikael Naramore.

H.M. Pulham, Esquire: A Novel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 935min
A Harvard reunion prompts a Boston Brahmin’s search for meaning in this comedy of manners by the number-one New York Times best-selling author of Point of No Return. In preparation for the 25th reunion of his class at Harvard, Harry Pulham is asked to collect and edit the personal histories of his fellow alumni. A glance at the previous year’s class book tells him just how tedious the assignment will be: “I have been very busy all this time practising corporation law and trying to raise a family”, a typical entry reads. “I still like to go to the football games and cheer for Harvard.” Harry’s autobiography is almost indistinguishable from those of his classmates. From his career at a Boston investment firm to his marriage to childhood friend Kay Motford, he has always made the safe, familiar choice - with one exception. For a brief interlude after World War I, Harry joined an advertising agency in Manhattan and fell in love with a beautiful, independent woman unlike anyone he had ever met. A wholly unexpected future opened up for him in those few months, but when family obligations called him back to New England, the relationship came to a sudden end. Now, 20 years later, Harry believes that his story could not have turned out any other way. A clever satire that achieves heartbreaking poignancy, H. M. Pulham, Esquire is a masterpiece from the author declared by the New York Times to be “our foremost fictional chronicler of the well-born.” ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: P. J. Ochlan.

Deception , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 93min
The world is a dangerous place, and every country has men and women tasked to protect it. These people go by many names: Secret agent, intelligence officer, and analyst are just a few. Harry is one such person. He is an analyst. He spends his time reading, researching, and analyzing, followed by writing reports that often never see the light of day. Harry is well educated with a seemingly important job, but Harry is bored. Bored, because analysts never get to be the hero, never get to order cocktails stirred not shaken, and, never, never, get the girl. Harry is frustrated, frustrated because his superiors told him the report he just spent six months working on is to be tabled, and no, he can’t have a field operative to work with to follow up. Harry has one very dangerous character flaw, he has an imagination, not something the men on the top floor appreciate. Harry needs to prove himself; he needs some excitement in his life, and that excitement comes in a deadly package of intrigue and murder that combines something called the Sister Project with a Russian master spy, H, K. Kyrsa, code name, the Beautiful Rat, and the devastatingly gorgeous Harriet. The question is, is it all just happening in Harry’s head, or is there a real plot that needs to be stopped? Is Harry just plain crazy, or are the Russians out to mess with the West one more time? Harry is on his own, not sure who to trust. Are there any good guys in the world of espionage? The only way to find out is to find Kyrsa, the Beautiful Rat. Join Harry in his search for what may not even be real. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Kent F Sheridan.

The Cassique of Kiawah , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1446min
The Cassique of Kiawah is the romantic story of Harry Calvert, a privateer in service to King Charles II of England. Set in the year 1684, it is a colonial romance of the very early origins of Charleston, South Carolina. Upon the illness of King Charles II and the imminent accession of James II, Calvert finds that he has suddenly become an outlaw because of a change of political winds in London. Hiding his crew and ship in the backwaters near Charleston, Harry Calvert sets out in disguise to see his friend, the governor of Carolina, in order to gauge the situation and try to determine his future. But when he learns that his titled older brother, who has become the Cassique (or lord) of the beautiful island of Kiawah, is in the area and has married the woman Harry was previously in love with back in England before he became a privateer, Harry’s life is turned upside down. William Gilmore Simms (1806-1870) was primarily an historian, but also one with a penchant for writing historical fiction. He was one of the most successful American writers of his era, using extensive research and eloquent detail. His novels are based on historical incidents and real people, as is the case with this one. Simms had a wonderful gift for recreating the personalities and politics of early American history. Although many of these characters are seen today as stereotypes, they are nevertheless a very good study in the various kinds of people who came to 17th century Carolina as colonists, adventurers, or servants of the crown. Early American history leaps into vivid life in this tale of romance, intrigue, and savagery. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Charlton Griffin.
