    A Nation Rising: Untold Tales of Flawed Founders, Fallen Heroes, and Forgotten Fighters from America's Hidden History , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 425min
    Untold Tales of Flawed Founders, Fallen Heroes, and Forgotten Fighters from America's Hidden History In the dramatic period from 1800 through 1850, the United States emerged from its inauspicious beginning as a tiny newborn nation, to a near-empire that spanned the continent. It was a time in which the “dream of our founders” spread in ways that few men of that Revolutionary Generation could possibly have imagined. And it was an era that led to the great, tragic conflagration that followed—the American Civil War. The narratives that form A Nation Rising each exemplify the “hidden history” of America, exploring a vastly more complex path to nationhood than the national myth of a destiny made manifest by visionary political leaders and fearless pioneers. Davis explores: Aaron Burr’s 1807 trial, showcasing the political intrigue of the early Republic An 1813 Indian uprising and an ensuing massacre A mutiny aboard the slave ship Creole The “Dade Massacre” and the start of the second Seminole War The bloody “Bible Riots” in Philadelphia The story of Jessie Benton Frémont and Lt. John C. Frémont This audiobook is not only riveting storytelling in its own right but a stirring reminder of the ways in which our history continues to shape our present. ungekürzt.

    Deadly Consequences: The Zombie Murders , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 299min
    Someone...or something...is stalking the citizens of Miami.First, the chief of the triage morgue at Dade County Hospital is strangled; the skulls of two homeless men are crushed under a highway overpass, followed by drug dealers, frat boys, and workers at a local diner brutally bludgeoned.Detectives Issy Ruiz and Andy Molinaro can find no motive, no clues, and no links among the victims, just a description of four muscular young men with fixed eyes and stiff gaits as though animated by some otherworldly force.Amidst a growing public panic and an anti-cop smear campaign by the media, with no leads, Molinaro and Ruiz turn to Dr. Robert Merriweather, one of the country's most prominent forensic oral and maxillofacial surgeons and Issy's old boss, for help.With the dogged brilliance that has become his trademark, Merriweather begins investigating possible scientific explanations for this unexplained "zombieism." Along the way, he finds links between the murderers' conditions and his own patient, a Haitian man practiced in the art of voodoo; he also realizes there's a much larger, more nefarious force behind the zombie murders. As Merriweather slowly begins to untangle an unholy alliance of Big Pharma, ex-military and corrupt scientists, he risks losing a dear friend - the woman he loves - and possibly even his own life. ungekürzt.

    The Jessup Dimension , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 325min
    In 1959, on April 20th (a date that has hosted a succession of terror events in recent years), noted astronomer and ufologist Morris K. Jessup was found dead in his car in Dade County, Florida - an apparent suicide. Jessup, a firm believer that UFOs were not from outer space, was the first researcher to expound intelligently on the terrestrial thesis, and his death sparked rumors that he had been taken out by the thuggish enforcers of the extraterrestrial thesis, the Men in Black. Through a series of odd psychic messages, Anna Genzlinger, who had read about Jessup in a book about the Bermuda Triangle, was spurred to investigate his death as a murder, not a suicide. Genzlinger, who felt that Jessup had been driven to kill himself by government agents (because he knew too much about the Philadelphia Experiment), collected evidence to substantiate her intuition. The result was The Jessup Dimension, first published in 1981 by Gray Barker's Saucerian Press. By the time Barker died in 1984, the book had been thoroughly suppressed, eventually becoming so rare that original copies fetched thousands of dollars. In this book, taken directly from the original manuscript, Genzlinger describes in gripping detail how Jessup's ghost guided her in her investigation. Despite being warned off by several spooks in the UFO field, Genzlinger courageously continues on, ignoring threats of her imminent demise. This special 2014 edition features revealing introductions by researchers Peter Moon and Andy Colvin, as well as fascinating recent material from Laura Knight-Jadczyk, Adam Gorightly, and Jack Sarfatti. ungekürzt.

    The Expanding Case for the UFO , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 490min
    From the craters of the moon, the jungle-ridden cities of prehistory, the world's scattered Pygmy tribes, and the columns of yesterday's newspaper comes new and thought-provoking evidence for the existence of space life. Such were the words on the original dust jacket of The Expanding Case for the UFO. First released in 1957, The Expanding Case was the sequel to perhaps the most notorious book in ufological history: The Case for the UFO, which drew the interest of the U.S. Navy and resulted in the famous annotated "Varo Edition". The annotator of the book, Carlos Allende, claimed to have been a witness to the Philadelphia Experiment. Allende seemed to think that the book's author, astronomer M.K. Jessup, knew more about the experiment than he was admitting, and had maybe played a role in it. The Expanding Case for the UFO was the last book ever written by M.K. Jessup, and it ties together many of the controversial threads first exposed in The Case for the UFO. As evidence to how dangerous this material was at the time, it was only two years later that Jessup - after experiencing threatening phone calls and alarming synchronicities "too unbelievable to describe" - would be found dead in a park in Dade County, Florida - supposedly a "suicide." While Allende claimed Jessup killed the hitman sent to terminate him, and was able to escape by trading identities with the hitman, the facts remain obscured - like the UFOs themselves - in a most intriguing fog. ungekürzt.

    Beyond Good & Evil (A Serial Killer Thriller): Victor Loshak, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 544min
    He slips through the unlocked window. Creeps down the hall. A shadow standing in the bedroom doorway. Will you wake when death comes ripping? A string of brutal home invasion murders terrifies Dade County, Florida. The killer strikes in the dead of the night, savages innocent people in their beds, wipes out entire families. He attacks at random. Rich. Poor. Young. Old. No one is safe. When the city sleeps, he comes alive. Stalks the night. Walks among us. The investigation is hopeless. There's little physical evidence to work with, and the killer's chaotic behavior makes him as unpredictable as he is dangerous. What drives someone to such violence? And how can anyone make sense of such brutality? The task force leading the investigation needs a profiler, and there's only one man for the job. Loshak. Special Agent Victor Loshak. The 53-year-old likes his Dunkin' Donuts coffee shaken, not stirred. And now, for the first time, he's on his own. But how far will this case push him? In recent years, Loshak has slowed down some. He relies on more wit than grit these days, often playing a mentor role to his partner, Violet Darger. Until now, she always had more than enough grit for both of them. But Darger isn't around this time, and a killer this aggressive will push Loshak to his limits.And beyond. Yeah, he'll need to find that grit again...or die trying. This pulse-pounding thriller will have you holding your breath until the final chapter. Fans of John Sandford, Karin Slaughter, Michael Connelly, and Lisa Gardner should check out the Victor Loshak series. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Curt Bonnem.
