Scarpetta: Kay Scarpetta, Book 16, Hörbuch, Digital, 351min
Leaving behind her forensic pathology practice in South Carolina, Kay Scarpetta takes up an assignment in New York City, where the NYPD has asked her to examine an injured patient in a psychiatric ward. The handcuffed and chained patient, Oscar Bane, has specifically asked for her, and when she literally has her gloved hands on him, he begins to talk - and the story he has to tell turns out to be one of the most bizarre she has ever heard. He says his injuries were sustained in the course of a murder...that he did not commit. Is Bane a criminally insane stalker who has fixed on Scarpetta? Or is his paranoid tale true, and it is he who is being spied on, followed and stalked by the actual killer? The only thing Scarpetta knows for certain is that a woman has been tortured and murdered - and that more violent deaths will follow... Language: English. Narrator: Mary Stuart Masterson.

Knightley & Son: K-9 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 437min
Darkus Knightley, tweed-wearing, mega-brained, thoroughly logical 13-year-old investigator of the weird, was just getting used to having his dad back in his life. Then Alan Knightley went off-radar, again, leaving Darkus with a traumatised ex-bomb-disposal dog as his only partner in crime-solving. Now things are getting even stranger. Family pets are being savaged by a beast at a top London beauty spot. Policemen have been tracked and attacked by a particularly aggressive canine. And two curiously alert hounds seem to be watching Darkus' house. No one is using the word werewolf – yet – but as the full moon approaches, it doesn’t take Sherlock Holmes to work out that someone or something sinister is messing with the minds of London's dog population. A mysterious canine conspiracy is howling for the attention of Knightley & Son... Criminally good detective adventure, perfect for fans of Sherlock and sharp-minded sleuths of all shapes and sizes... ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Greg Wagland.

Headhunters: Sequel to The Drum Circle Murders , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 209min
In The Drum Circle Murders, we met Sgt. Phillip Davis and Sgt. Anthony Trangotta, detectives with the Pinellas County, Florida, Sheriff's Department. Except for cases involving one killer, Warren Williams, they had been successful in solving most of the murders that had been perpetrated within the Tampa Bay drumming community, and their success had been instrumental in helping Sheriff Jeff Spencer win reelection. Warren Williams had committed a particularly gruesome crime by decapitating a woman named Ruby and leaving her body hanging upside down from an oak tree in Boyd Hill Nature park in St. Petersburg. This crime had left a deep impression on Sgt. Trangotta, one that he could not seem to shake. Due to a lack of funding, some criminally insane inmates in Florida mental hospitals had been released, and they, like Warren, shared his lust for blood and a growing desire to kill and decapitate their victims. More and more, they were becoming head hunters. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Lee Collins. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/021575/bk_acx0_021575_sample.mp3.
