    When twelve-year-old Florence boards the horse-drawn coach in London, she looks forward to a new life at Crutchfield Hall, her great-uncle’s manor house in the English countryside. Anything will be better, Florence thinks, than the grim London orphanage she has just left. Florence doesn’t reckon with the eerie presence that haunts the cavernous rooms and dimly lit hallways of Crutchfield. It’s the ghost of her cousin Sophia, who died the year before. Sophia’s ghost seeks to recreate the scene of her death and cause someone else to die in her place so that she will be restored to life. And she intends to force her newly arrived cousin to help her. Blending elements from classic ghost stories of the past, Mary Downing Hahn pays homage to such renowned writers as Edgar Allan Poe and Charles Dickens while creating a bone-chilling new story of her own. ungekürzt.

    LIVE from the stage of the Town Hall Theatre in Glorious Mayham Massachusetts - It's The New Dibble Show... This is the energetic cry from announcer Westbrook Ahern that begins each episode of Dibble and the gang. The Town Hall Theatre is the place for Dibble's weekly Radio Show where he entertains his dozens of fans who supposedly listen in each Saturday night to his broadcast which barely reaches the edge of town. The Town Hall Theatre is a cavernous building that has seen better days. It seats 1,400 but Dibble and his show usually play to an empty house. Although the main focus of the program is his radio broadcast, we often get out to visit the town and the eccentric personalities who live there. He is a self-proclaimed "Professional Entertainment Legend." He is 3'3. He always has an angle. When he walks he sounds like a spider tap dancing. He has very little patience. He is... Dibble!

    MEM is a rare novel, a small book carrying very big ideas, the kind of story that stays with you long after you've finished listening to it. Set in the glittering art deco world of a century ago, MEM makes one slight alteration to history: a scientist in Montreal discovers a method allowing people to have their memories extracted from their minds, whole and complete.  The Mems exist as mirror-images of their source-zombie-like creatures destined to experience that singular memory over and over, until they expire in the cavernous Vault where they are kept. And then there is Dolores Extract #1, the first Mem capable of creating her own memories. An ageless beauty shrouded in mystery, she is allowed to live on her own, and create her own existence, until one day she is summoned back to the Vault. What happens next is a gorgeously rendered, heart-breaking novel in the vein of Kazuo Ishiguro's Never Let Me Go. Debut novelist Bethany Morrow has created an allegory for our own time, exploring profound questions of ownership and how they relate to identity, memory, and history, all in the shadows of Montreal's now forgotten slave trade. ungekürzt.
