    Fire Base Illingworth: An Epic True Story of Remarkable Courage Against Staggering Odds , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 479min
    In the early morning hours of April 1, 1970, more than four hundred North Vietnamese soldiers charged out into the open and tried to overrun FSB Illingworth. The battle went on, mostly in the dark, for hours. Exposed ammunition canisters were hit and blew up, causing a thunderous explosion inside the FSB that left dust so thick it jammed the hand-held weapons of the GIs. Much of the combat was hand-to-hand. In all, twenty-four Americans lost their lives and another fifty-four were wounded. Nearly one hundred enemy bodies were recovered. It was one of the most vicious small-unit firefights in the history of U.S. forces in Vietnam. As in his acclaimed book Blackhorse Riders, a finalist for the prestigious Colby Award, Phil Keith uncovers a harrowing true story of bravery and sacrifice by the men who fought valiantly to hold FSB Illingworth-a tale never-before-told and one that will not be soon forgotten. ungekürzt.

    Inside the Rainbow , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 617min
    Inside the Rainbow is a rendition of true events under the skies and in the skies of old Alaska long before it became the 49th state. It features the lives of Marie, a courageous country girl and her lifelong mate, Sandy, who become teachers in the one-room rural school of the North. They had just been married and graduated from college as they headed for their first job on a remote Aleutian island. There were a lot of surprises in store. Of course, there was no electricity, no running water, no inside plumbing, no access to any professional teaching support, no medical support, no church, and no communication with the outside world accept with a mailboat that was supposed to visit once a month if Aleutian weather would permit. But worst of all, no village chief or law authority. But their students were great. They loved their teachers, were cooperative and eager to learn. All eight grades were jammed into one crowded room with the teacher’s quarters attached next to it. The first three days of school went well, but then an event happened that changed everything. There was a murder. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: David Edes. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/164789/bk_acx0_164789_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

    Box 13, Vol. 1, Hörbuch, Digital, 321min
    Movie star Alan Ladd played Dan Holiday, retired newspaperman turned fiction writer and adventurer extraordinaire. To gain ideas for his books, Holiday placed an ad in the Star-Times newspaper: "Adventure wanted - will go anywhere, do anything - Box 13." It wasn't long before his Box 13 became jammed with adventures galore. Holiday always had more adventure than he had originally sought because those who responded to his ad never revealed all of their glorious, unusual, and sometimes sinister details until they met in person and the adventure had already begun. Silvia Picker played Holiday's scatter-brained secretary, Suzy. Suzy added touches of humor to the mystery-adventure and nail-biting storylines. Box 13 was produced by Mayfair Productions, a company run by Alan Ladd and Richard Sandville. The name came from Mayfair Restaurant, which Ladd and Sandville owned during World War II. In addition to producing Box 13, Ladd also wrote some of the scripts. Episodes include: "The First Letter" "Insurance Fraud" "Blackmail Is Murder" "Actor's Alibi" "Extra, Extra" "Shanghaied" "Short Assignment" "Double Mothers" "Book of Poems" "The Great Torino" "Suicide or Murder" "Triple Cross" Language: English.

    Glorious Plague , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 486min
    Hallie is missing - and so are thousands of others. Everywhere people are singing - climbing to the rooftops, to the bridges, to lamp post and road sign, steeple and water tower, singing gloriously, triumphantly, tirelessly - and dying. Hallie's mother, Dale, goes to Manhattan to search for her. She drives in from rural New Jersey, passing abandoned cars and trucks, to make her way to the jammed George Washington Bridge, rejoicing with hymns and gospel and rock and opera. The plague moves swiftly, and the city's survivors form new communities, dealing with the rotting corpses, trying to re-establish a new infrastructure for the new order. And odd things happen - angels come to earth, Christ drags his crucifix around Rockefeller Center, the Indian god Ganesh runs for mayor - but it doesn't seem remarkable to the survivors. A man falls in love with a mermaid and decides to throw in his fortunes with hers, only to be attacked by an animal liberated from the zoo. Politics begins to assert itself, as do real-estate issues, and it matters what - and who - you believe. It's time to choose sides. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jorjeana Marie.

This Archers retrospective includes the omnibus edition from September 1955, featuring the fateful night of Grace's demise, and two editions of vintage Archers from 1986 and 1987, in which the residents of Ambridge - including Jill, Walter, Tom, Shula and Christine - gather at Christmas and remember events of the past. Finally, in the 2015 radio play Dead Girls Tell No Tales, the real-life circumstances of Grace's departure from the serial are dramatised by long-term Archers writer Joanna Toye. With a star cast including Eleanor Tomlinson, Simon Russell Beale, Ysanne Churchman, Jon Culshaw, Pam Ferris and Miles Jupp, it delves deep into The Archers' archives to reveal the truth about why Grace had to die.
