Secretariat Reborn , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 510min
Christian Roberts, lanky; blond; and 25 years old, rents out small sailboats on Sarasota Bay. His peaceful life is shattered when he accepts a thoroughbred colt from his estranged, dying father, an Ocala horse trainer. When Christian promises his father that he'll race the colt, he's plunged into the underworld of horse racing. To navigate his way he naively hires Ed Price, a heartless Miami trainer. And when his colt shows potential - a surprising resemblance to Secretariat - a dubious wealthy sheik wants to buy him, but Christian vows to keep his promise to his father. With a sizable debt still owed on the horse, Christian is forced to take out a loan. His only recourse is Vince, a New York mobster. If the money is not repaid on time, Christian's life and that of Allie, his colt's trainer, are threatened. To add to his rollercoaster of troubles, he faces fraud charges since his father illegally registered the colt, and he is being stalked by a psychotic ex-girlfriend. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Hatteras Blue: A Tiller Galloway Underwater Adventure : The Tiller Galloway Novels, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 519min
Tiller Galloway is a terrific hero.... A fast-paced, convincing thriller set in an unusual locale. (Baltimore Sun)"Plot twists and turns that chart a tricky course through the deep waters of human need and greed." (Ocala Star-Banner)“Local atmosphere and a good knowledge of treacherous currents keep things on course.” (The London Times)On a moonless night in 1945, a destroyer sinks a U-boat, 50 miles off Hatteras Island, the graveyard of the Atlantic. Over a half-century later, the mummified corpses of three crewmen, wrapped in a decaying rubber raft, come to light during excavation for a new shopping development. Their reappearance unleashes neo-Nazis, drug smugglers, and a shadowy "historian" with an ominous plan. When Hatteras native, salvage diver, and ex-con Lyle "Tiller" Galloway III starts digging into the discovery, he's forced by an island family to take on a dangerous silent partner. Together, he and Shadrach Aydlett will discover what actually happened in the Carolina sand hills so long ago, and what everyone's really after...tons of long-lost Nazi gold. And finally, he’ll battle a ruthless killer many fathoms beneath the stormy sea off Cape Hatteras. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Edison McDaniels.

The Bog , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 705min
Hovern Bog. People live in terror of it - especially the residents of Fenchurch St. Jude, the little village located at its edge. They think of it as a living being. They've seen it reach out with sinewy tentacles... to take, entangle, and digest. When 2,000-year-old bodies are recovered from the bog, perfectly preserved, it is the discovery of a lifetime for archaeologist David Macauley. But close examination of the corpses reveals a curious fact: all were cruelly, mysteriously murdered, gnawed to death by some unimaginable creature. Soon it becomes apparent that whatever tortured and killed the bodies from ancient times still roams the bog, and no one in Fenchurch St. Jude - especially David and his family - is safe. In The Bog (1986), Michael Talbot (1953-1992), author of the vampire classic The Delicate Dependency and the chilling haunted house novel Night Things, delivers an exciting mix of science and the supernatural that will keep listeners guessing until the horrific climax. "One of the better horror novels.... odd and risky mingling of pure science with fairy lore and gnashed bodies.... terrific." - Kirkus Reviews "Exciting!" - Publishers Weekly "Convincingly original!" - Ocala Star-Banner ungekürzt.

When Philo Drax receives a letter from her wealthy grandfather saying he fears for his life at the hands of the vicious Slape family, she rushes to the rescue. But too late! Katie Slape, a monstrous girl with psychic powers and a penchant for smashing skulls with her hammer, has already finished him off and gotten hold of his cash.Determined to track down the murderers, Philo hunts Katie and her family through the streets of 1860s New York, where the Slapes’ coffers are filling up with money as their cellar fills up with corpses.

FreeK Week , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 451min
Winner of the 2015 Florida Book Festival Grand Prize, the New England Book Festival Award, and the Mom's Choice gold. FreeK Week is number three in the FreeKs series featuring psychic teen detectives. Spring break in Florida is a blast - for the FreeKs it's a killer Five of the psychic teens are going to Florida over spring break. They can stay with fellow FreeK Caroline and their mentors Bando, Rose, and Twait. But somebody wants them to stay home and will use fire, rattlesnakes, and more to keep them away. As they prepare to leave New England, Charlie has one of his dreams - a murder and a kidnapping - only it's happening in real time in the Sunshine State. The dead man is a former circus midget who worked with Twait, Bando, and Rose in their sideshow days. And that's just the first murder. The trail will take the FreeKs from Cassadaga (psychic medium capital of the world) to Gibsonton (Freaktown USA, America's Weirdest Town) - with side trips to The Villages (Florida's Friendliest Hometown, unless somebody's out to kill you) and Ocala (Horse Capital of the World) - and finally to the capital, Tallahassee. What the teens will remember about FreeK Week won't be their visit to Daytona Beach or the airboat ride in the gator swamps - it'll be sharing their gifts, working together, and fighting to survive.

Tampa Bay Noir: Akashic Books: Noir , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 562min
Tampa Bay joins Miami in representing the (alleged) Sunshine State in the Noir Series arena."At last, the popular Akashic Noir series has adopted the Tampa Bay area.... The notion of elevating place to the status of a character in a story, a frequent topic in writers workshops, works to maximum effect. The descriptive forays are full of observations that can only be gleaned by living here." (Tampa Bay Times)"A new collection of noir fiction features all sorts of miscreants finding their way through this part of Florida." (Ocala Star Banner)"[A] lively collection of superior short stories." (South Florida Sun Sentinel)"For too long readers have connected Florida Noir with the admittedly fascinating locales of Miami-Dade County, thanks to a slew of talented and popular writers no doubt, but there's another major metropolitan area on the Gulf Coast that's every bit Miami's equal for bizarre noir. Tampa Bay gets a much-deserved turn in the spotlight with this new collection in the Akashic series, edited by Colette Bancroft and featuring some stellar contributions from writers out of the greater Tampa diaspora, including Michael Connelly, Tim Dorsey, Sarah Gerard, Ace Atkins, and Lori Roy." (CrimeReads, One of the Most Anticipated Crime Books of 2020)"Books can transport us to faraway, exotic places we've never seen, but they can also show us new angles of familiar places we thought we knew. Places closer to home like Hyde Park, Tierra Verde, Davis Islands, Palma Ceia, Clearwater Beach, Pass-a-Grille, Indian Rocks Beach, Westshore, St. Petersburg's 34th Street, Gibsonton, Lake Maggiore, Pinellas Park, Largo, Safety Harbor and Rattlesnake. Those are the local settings - yes, Rattlesnake is a real place! - for the 15 stories collected in Tampa Bay Noir, an anthology of new crime fiction due out in August."

Boy 2 Man: A Waha Story , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 240min
I’m a married father of nine: six girls, three boys. From Ocala, FL, raised in Ocklawaha, FL. My audiobook is about my coming up in a less-fortunate place. It’s basically about the different things I went through as I grew up. How my mom and grandma struggled to keep food, clothes, and a roof over the head of my sister and I. How we lived in an old wooden house my granddad built that was about to fall apart. With no hot water and a PVC pipe for a shower head. You could see through the floor between the toilet and the bathtub. Sitting on the toilet was like a roller coaster ride, hoping you don’t fall through. But, hey, Grandma and Ma pulled through the did the best they could. I was young and wanting to help. "So, what to do?" I thought. All that’s around me is drug dealers, nobody going to school. They are thinking school’s just another way of slavery. Just a way to teach me a way to work for another man, build his dream. So, nine times out of 10, if you are around something long enough, eventually you’re going to want to try it. I watched these people make quick easy money. My family needed it, so I went in, and since my dad is already in it, just being on the other side made it easier. So I started making money and taking care of my family. A typical kid with a hard head, I was. I summed it up; if I told you everything, I would have never finished this audiobook. But my going to prison changed my outlook on my life, made me want to do more in life. I hope you guys enjoy my story and share it with family and friends. ungekürzt. Language: English.
