    1777: In the throes of the Revolutionary War, Landon Mansion is commandeered by British Lord “Butcher” Bedford. He stabs Lucy Tarleton — who spurned his king and his love — leaving her to die in her father’s arms. Now: After the day’s final tour, docent Allison Leigh makes her rounds while locking up…and finds a colleague slumped over Bedford’s desk, impaled on his own replica bayonet. Resident ghosts may be the stock-in-trade of stately Philadelphia homes, but Allison — a noted historian — is indignant at the prospect of “ghost hunters” investigating this apparent murder. Agent Tyler Montague knows his hauntings and his history. But while Allison is skeptical of the newcomer, a second mysterious murder occurs. Has “Butcher” Bedford resurfaced? Or is there another malevolent force at work in Landon Mansion? Wary, yet deeply attracted, Allison has to trust in Tyler and work with him to discover just what uninvited guest — dead or alive — has taken over the house. Or their lives could become history! ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Luke Daniels. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/brll/004072/bk_brll_004072_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

    In 1691, the town of Crossfall taught the witch Thessaly how to die. They beat her, they shot her, they hung her--but nothing worked. When they finally tried to bury her alive Thessaly set the field against them. The first man died as a gust of wind harrowed the meat from his bones. A root,flung like a dirty javelin, cut a second man down. Many more deaths followed. The Preacher Fell impaled the witch upon her very own broom but she dragged him down into the field to wait for three more centuries.  Three hundred years later Maddy Harker will murder her bullying husband Vic. She will bury him in the field as she buried her abusive father years before that. The very same field where the revenant spirit of Thessaly Cross lies waiting.  In three days Vic will rise again - a thing of dirt, bone and hatred.  Men will call him the Tatterdemon. And hell--and Thessaly--will follow! ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Rick Gregory. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/131019/bk_acx0_131019_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

    Orenis has been convicted of a crime he hasn't committed. His sentence is death in the gladiatorial games. But Orenis intends to go down fighting. If he can't prove his innocence, then he will take as many of his enemies down with him as possible. But his plans go awry when he realizes that some of his enemies are closer than he thinks, and he realizes the truth. "The sentence is death by combat." The words rang in his head as he stared at his bare feet and shackled ankles. The last day of his life, and he would spend it fighting for the amusement of others. How many times had he come to the arena and cheered as a prisoner had been decapitated or impaled? Too many to count. The whole thing seemed so barbaric from this side of the coin. "And what if I survive?" he asked. It was a question that the judges had probably heard a thousand times, from a thousand different criminals. They already had an answer ready for him: "No one survives." ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Kane Prestenback.
