An executive recruiter by day, McAllister's other job comes with a code name, ZEBRA, the leader of a team of elite assassins who report to only one man: the president of the United States. But he's been inactive for years, perfectly content to spend his time finding CEOs and VPs for Fortune 500 companies. Now, as members of his team are murdered in seemingly unrelated incidents and multiple terror attacks savage civilian targets throughout the country, McAllister realizes it's time once again to screw on the silencer and get back to work. He must reactivate himself and hunt down the man who is behind it all. The one who will do whatever it takes to steal the power he craves. And tear the nation to shreds to get it. ungekürzt.

On a quiet day, away from the hustle of Richmond, in a small cottage on the Virginia coast, Dr. Kay Scarpetta receives a disturbing phone call from the Chesapeake police. Thirty feet deep in the murky waters of Virginia's Elizabeth River, a scuba diver's body is discovered near the Inactive Naval Shipyard. As the police begin searching for clues, the wallet of investigative reporter Ted Eddings is found. Unnerved by the possible identity of the victim, Scarpetta orders the crime scene roped off and left alone until she arrives. What was he doing there, searching for Civil War relics as the officer suggested, or was there a bigger story? As she rifles through the multitude of clues, a second murder hits much closer to home. This new development puts Scarpetta and her colleagues hot on the trail of a military conspiracy. Filled with lurid details that Cornwell's legions of fans have come to expect, Cause of Death is a breathtaking mystery further enhanced by C. J. Critt's gripping narration.

COVID-19: Illness & Illumination: A Hypnotic Exploration , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 578min
These chronicles mix physics, medicine, hypnotherapy, technology, culture, learning, politics, and the news surrounding the coronavirus from March through June of 2020. This is the first phase of the pandemic, before the expected second infection, and before any vaccine.This mixing of perspectives is unusual. Few authors have the background to support it. Fewer recognize that integrating many perspectives is necessary to understand what has and is continuing to happen. The virus is not one thing having many impacts; it is many things happening with the virus at the center.The situation cannot be understood without considering the chaotic forces and policies that formed it. There is no “one story”; no one authoritative point of view; no single, resolving explanation. Any such orderly presentation of events - and there will be many as various pundits, experts, and spokespeople present their cases - is one slice through a multidimensional event.Much of what becomes evident has been brewing for years - maybe centuries - hidden in policies, bureaucracies, attitudes, economies, cultures, ecological injury, and other dynamics whose combustible elements were either segregated, inactive, unrecognized, or mutating toward this trigger point.Each section in this audiobook ends with a hypnotic session presenting the material in a manner that engages your emotions and detaches you from your senses. ungekürzt.

The Two and the Proud: 1 Night Stand Series , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 70min
Roger Michael Easton IV, better known as Rowdy, flouted the family's Naval tradition to enlist in the Marines—not as an officer, but a ground pounding grunt. He never expected to see as much combat or valor as he did in the field, but every engagement furthered his commitment to his brothers in arms. Now, with an early offer on the table to end his contract, Rowdy has to take a long look at the life he left behind, the life he's built, and the future he longs to have. Rowdy also wants a woman who gets him. Inactive Marine, Kim Wakefield, continues to serve her country as a Naval Criminal Investigator. She's hard on the grunts and sailors because she is one of them—and they didn't sign up for easy. Tired of the seedier side of military life—picking up drunk Marines, AWOL sailors, busting drug running operations, or worse, sending drug addicted servicemen to court marshal and treatment, she longs to have her faith in her fellow Marines restored. Kim wants a man who knows what she needs. Thrown together by chance on a 1Night Stand, the jarheads have a combustible chemistry—but do they have what it takes to give each other what they want? ungekürzt. Language: English.

Queen of the Tiles (eBook, ePUB)
They Wish They Were Us meets The Queen's Gambit in the world of competitive Scrabble when a teen girl is forced to investigate the mysterious death of her best friend a year after the fact when her Instagram comes back to life with cryptic posts and messages. CATALYST 13 points noun: a substance that speeds up a reaction without itself changing When Najwa Bakri walks into her first Scrabble competition since her best friend's death, it's with the intention to heal and move on with her life. Perhaps it wasn't the best idea to choose the very same competition where said best friend, Trina Low, died. It might be even though Najwa's trying to change, she's not ready to give up Trina just yet. But the same can't be said for all the other competitors. With Trina, the Scrabble Queen herself, gone, the throne is empty, and her friends are eager to be the next reigning champion. All's fair in love and Scrabble, but all bets are off when Trina's formerly inactive Instagram starts posting again, with cryptic messages suggesting that maybe Trina's death wasn't as straightforward as everyone thought. And maybe someone at the competition had something to do with it. As secrets are revealed and the true colors of her friends are shown, it's up to Najwa to find out who's behind these mysterious posts—not just to save Trina's memory, but to save herself.- Shop: buecher
