    West of Here , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 991min
    From the rugged mudflats of the Northwestern frontier to a rusting strip mall, West of Here is a conversation between two epochs. In his eagerly awaited second novel, Jonathan Evison tells the stories of the people who first inhabited the mythical town of Port Bonita in Washington State from 1887-1891. Moving ahead more than a century to 2005-06, he introduces those who live there now and must deal with the damage done by their predecessors. The characters are drawn with compassion and truth, the themes are grand and sweeping: regeneration, the trappings of history, the elusive nature of perception, who makes footprints and who follows them. Evison writes with heart and verve, capturing evocative details and unforgettable scenes. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Edoardo Ballerini.

    Cradle Snatcher: Younger Women, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 22min, (USK 18)
    Jeremy was a billionaire. A self-made man, he didn't bother working for money anymore; his money worked for him. That left him plenty of time to pursue his other great interest in life - women! He was an expert seducer. He looked far younger than his years, and the obvious trappings of wealth didn't hurt. The main thing, though, was he understood women better than they understood themselves. On the hunt in one of his favorite locations, a coffee shop in town, he spies his latest conquest. Sara is a shy but attractive civil servant in her early 20s. His "accidental" spilling of coffee on her coat leads to a chain of events that Jeremy tightly controls and that completely blows Sara's mind. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Kitty Velour.

    Charles Sobhraj: Inside the Heart of the Bikini Killer , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 369min
    Charles Sobhraj: Inside the Heart of the Bikini Killer provides glimpses of Charles Sobhraj - the notorious serial killer - without the glitz and trappings lent to his image by media reports. It is not the cold, calculated 'Bikini Killer' we find here, but a balding man worried about his failing health; a man who requests the doctor to put off his surgery for a few days because he is afraid; a frail man who bursts into tears when he learns the operation has only a slim chance of success. Candidly narrated by the doctor who had initially refused to treat a criminal like Charles, this book explores the ethical dilemmas and the choices we have to make to remain true to ourselves. ungekürzt.

    Topsail Island: Mayberry by the Sea , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 363min
    As if caught in a time warp, Topsail resembles resorts of decades past. It has the small-town feel of a family beach, a place with few commercial trappings whose devotees return generation after generation. McAllister blends interviews with the people who know the island with stories of early pirates, devastating hurricanes, a 1940s dig in search of a 1630 Spanish galleon's treasure, the US government's secret rocket program, a modern-day sea-turtle preservation project, and a black bear that came to stroll the beach. McAllister tells the many stories of Topsail with the help of those who love the island best.
