    Who slaughtered Jared and Carla Walker and their young son in their own home? Only their teenage daughter, the sole survivor, knows the truth. But it’s buried in her traumatized mind - leaving Detective Wade Jackson to weigh a tangle of inconclusive evidence and size up a gallery of suspects. A gang of carjackers may have graduated to home invasion and homicide, but Jackson’s not ruling out a bitter brother-in-law convinced the Walkers ripped him off big-time, a young heroin addict in forbidden love with the family’s daughter, or the former employer Jared Walker had on the blackmail hook. Meanwhile, as the recession hits Eugene, Oregon, department job cuts could close the book on Jackson’s career before he closes the case. But when the only living witness to the massacre vanishes, the shocking truth - and Jackson’s best chance to solve Eugene’s most shocking murders - go with her. And a killer with unfinished business follows closely behind. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Patrick Lawlor.

Michael and Me entertains and inspires, but above all, Shana continues to treat Michael (and his legacy) with respect.

    Explore the captivating life of Andrew Jackson!When Jackson left the White House after two presidential terms, he had achieved a rare feat: He left office with even more popularity than when he first entered it. His reputation as a strong president and a “champion of working-class democracy” has nevertheless been viewed through a more nuanced lens in recent years. In 2016, President Barack Obama decided to replace Andrew Jackson’s visage on the front of the $20 bill with a portrait of abolitionist Harriet Tubman. Meanwhile, current President Donald Trump has repeatedly drawn parallels between himself and Jackson via his infamous Twitter account and public speeches. He even put a portrait of Jackson in the Oval Office and visited his tomb in Nashville shortly after being sworn in. The present day is thus an apt time for a look into Jackson’s divisive life and legacy and that is what this captivating audiobook offers. Some of the topics covered in this audiobook include: The war orphanThe gentlemanThe scarlet womanThe congressmanSupreme Court Justice and major generalOld HickorySharp knifeWar heroExpansionPresidential candidateA Tumultuous presidencyJacksonian reformRetirementAnd much more!Click "Listen to this audiobook now!" button to learn more about Andrew Jackson! ungekürzt.

    Martin Van Buren, the eighth president of the United States, was the first president who was born an American and not a British citizen, a change in demographic which reflects his modern influence upon the office he held. His rise to political power began in the humble setting of Kinderhook, New York, where he was born to Dutch parents who ran a tavern frequented by the Empire State’s political elite, including Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr. Inside you will hear about.... An American is born The little magician Van Buren enters the national stage President Jackson’s right-hand man Van Buren’s turn In and out of the White House The legacy of the little magician And much more! From his earliest involvement in government, Van Buren was committed to the nurturing of political parties as a way to deliver the most effective leadership to the American people. He was a loyal supporter of President Andrew Jackson, but when Van Buren took office, he inherited the financial crisis that Jackson’s policies had helped to create. The Panic of 1837 brought the economic prosperity of the country to a screeching halt, and ultimately, Van Buren, who was not re-elected for a second term, paid the price. Whatever his failings as a president, he was a pre-eminent politician, and when the story of America is told, Van Buren’s contribution to the political process must be highly ranked. ungekürzt.
