Lying with the Devil: Redemption , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 336min
Ten years have passed and Detective Steven Bullard still finds himself obsessed with Mary Krowely, a case that had slipped through his fingers and ended tragically. His obsession led him down a destructive path of mental torture, drug abuse, and finally, distrust from his fellow officers. But now something has caught his eye: a pattern in another case. Girls are being kidnapped in the same manner that Mary was: tortured and abused but left dumped — left to rot around the city he swore to protect. But one thing stands out among them all: Their wrists are bruised from chains. Is there another Michael in the works? Has a copycat killer risen? With another girl, Ariel Koole, being kidnapped, Steven and his partner Chance race desperately against the clock to save her from the hands of this new killer. But as before, they run into dead ends with what little clues he leaves behind. Captive to a cold-blooded, disingenuous man with no regard for human life, Ariel is left to fight until help arrives, battling the same conditions as Mary Krowely. Can Steven and Chance save her? Is she doomed to follow in the same footsteps as Mary? Or will she wind up dead, just like the other girls? A palpable sense of dread begins to set in as time ticks on. The world is a dark and twisted place, and Steven finds himself lost in it. Will he ever find redemption for what he deems his own personal failure? One can only hope as he and Chance follow the clues through the city and into the horror that is this new killer’s personal hell on Earth. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Nick Shaner.

Aftershock: A Novel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 606min
Major Penelope Baldwin, accomplished pilot and tactician, could have expected a bright future and stable military career until a dubious flight mission over Al A’Zamiyah, Iraq, results in the loss of her left leg and any opportunity for motherhood.As Penelope struggles in recovery, her mother Evelyn struggles to secure their financial future and cover mounting medical bills. Buying the lies of disingenuous bankers and marketing shills, Evelyn places her savings within the derivatives market, a bubble that (unbeknownst to her) is on the verge of bursting. The collapse will destroy what’s left of her finances, along with the investments and pensions of countless citizens.Within months, on a wintry night in Georgia, a coked-up stock trader miscalculates a power turn in a Porsche coupe, sending its right front wheel over the curb and crashing into that which Penelope holds most dear. The stage is set for a dedicated warrior, an American heroine, to turn her sights on those greedy, callous men responsible for ripping away her future.Baldwin, along with Tessa Montgomery (senior chief, USMC), Cynthia Washington (RN, MSW), and six other highly competent women - all similarly devastated by the avarice, arrogance, and indifference of America’s ruling elite - channel their grief and rage and their search for justice, to become a finely orchestrated and well-financed band of predators.Several months later, several of the most powerful of America’s financial and political elite are slaughtered in 40-storied monuments to their egos. Then, a terror - a terror so primal that it rends the very fabric of everyday life - is released into the homes, limos, and private jets of America’s quasi-monarchical class.An invisible society of professional predators is leading a lethal attack on the long-sacred relationship between money and politics. ungekürzt.
