    Lilly of the Mountains , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 708min
    “I do.” Lilly spoke the two simple words at the wedding alter with a man 12 years older than herself. The man was not one of her choosing; life had conspired against her. Circumstances forced her to walk the narrow plank suspended over a bottomless pit; it was her father who pushed her off of it. Levi held the small Colorado town of Clayton in the grip of his iron talons. He had one friend: money. He had taken people’s homes, their businesses, and their dreams. No one liked Levi. When he was alive; people were kept in check and hid their animosity because it was the safe thing to do. When he was dead, all restraints were no longer necessary. Lilly still carries his last name. There is not a lot of kindness waiting for Lilly in Clayton, Colorado. Even worse, Levi has hidden his stolen riches somewhere on their property. Women look at her with the eyes of mistrust; men look at her as a target and a prize that comes with a hidden pile of money. Lilly’s one true love stands on the sidelines awaiting fresh rediscovery, but the way back means working through her own hidden scars of marital abuse.  Lilly of the Mountains is a suspenseful romance involving the ingredients of mystery, the supernatural, and spiritual elements. It is an uplifting story of one woman’s courage and determination to start over. If Lilly of the Mountains played in the theaters; it would be rated PG.  ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Cities of the Ancient World, Hörbuch, Digital, 708min
    We live in a world of cities - for the first time ever, the majority of the population lives in an urban environment - and reflecting on ancient models of the "city" as a human phenomenon offers important lessons for our culture today. Cities of the Ancient World is your opportunity to survey the breadth of the ancient world through the context of its urban development. Taught by esteemed Professor Steven L. Tuck, of Miami University, these 24 eye-opening lectures not only provide an invaluable look at the design and architecture of ancient cities, they also offer a flesh-and-blood glimpse into the daily lives of ordinary people and the worlds they created. Cities of the Ancient World gives you insight into cities large and small, famous and obscure. Ultimately, however, this is a course about people, not just buildings. Studying these cities will give you a new appreciation for the remarkable cultures of the ancient world, from the ruins of Uruk to the Golden Age of Athens, and spur you to reflect on what makes a city survive. More than anything else, Cities of the Ancient World is a course about human beings - what life was like in these cities and how people lived. PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio. Language: English. Narrator: Steven L. Tuck.

    Goodbye Natalie, Goodbye Splendour , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 708min
    Goodbye Natalie, Goodbye Splendour is the long-awaited, detailed account of events that led to the mysterious death of Hollywood legend Natalie Wood off the coast of Catalina Island on November 28, 1981. It is a story told by a haunted witness to that fateful evening: Dennis Davern, the young captain of Splendour, the yacht belonging to Wood and husband Robert Wagner. Davern initially backed up Wagner's version of that evening's events through a signed statement prepared by attorneys. But Davern's guilt over having failed Natalie termented him. Davern reached out to his old friend, Marti Rulli and little by little, at his own emotional pace, he revealed the details of his years in Wood and Wagner's employ, of the fateful weekend that Natalie died and of the events following her death that prevented him from telling the whole story - until now. ungekürzt.

    L.A. Rex: A Novel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 708min
    As far as everyone in the squad room knows, Ben Halloran is completely fresh to the streets of the 77th Division - just a soft kid from the West Side who's decided to become a cop and happened to draw the hardest neighborhood in LA.But demons from Ben's complicated past catch up with him and his tough, oddly principled Daryl Gates-era partner, Miguel Marquez, all too quickly. From the moment Ben and Marquez hit the streets together, they're pulled into a web of ultra-violent corruption and retribution. They meet hardcore Crip gangbangers and tagalong gangsta-rap gloryhounds, LA's Mexican Mafia, sleazy celebrity defense attorneys, and dirty cops with distinctly self-serving definitions of law enforcement. Ben is forced to choose among father figures and apparent destinies while trying to obey his own moral principles - as well as his desperate animal instinct to stay alive.Author Will Beall is a Los Angeles police officer who has spent almost his entire career on the streets of South Central, much of it in antigang units. The audiobook bristles with the energy and authenticity of his experience. But the true revelation of L.A. Rex is that Will Beall can write. His brilliant, fearless prose simultaneously evokes Richard Price and James Ellroy. The result is an explosive thriller that takes us deep into a city that's further from Hollywood than we can imagine, a city that no other writer has managed to capture with this kind of hard-earned insight and intensity. ungekürzt.
