    Making Whoopie: Hot Cakes, Book 3 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 537min
    This marriage of convenience is about to get sticky.Getting hitched for the health insurance is not Jocelyn Asher's idea of romance.But the hospital quote has really frosted her cookies, and suddenly, "I'm rich. We should just get married", sounds a whole lot more swoony.Especially when the man proposing is this gorgeous. And takes her to parties featuring champagne and petit fours. She's a sucker for anything with bubbles or icing. And just like that she finds herself married to a near stranger.Grant Lorre is usually allergic to spontaneity.So why did he ask the beautiful small-town baker he had a one-night stand with to marry him? Somehow watching her lick batter off a whisk - not a euphemism - made a wedding and a little fraud seem like a sweet idea.They'll just play house and make some whoopie - pies, of course - for a few months and then move on with their separate lives. Until then, bring on the cream filling. And that is a euphemism.But as things heat up even outside of the kitchen, they quickly realize there's no recipe to follow when it comes to love. ungekürzt.

    Inner Sanctum Mysteries, Volume 2, Hörbuch, Digital, 356min
    Taking its name from a popular series of mystery novels, Inner Sanctum Mysteries debuted over NBC's Blue Network in January 1941. It featured one of the most memorable and atmospheric openings in radio history: an organist hit a dissonant chord, a doorknob turned, and the famous "creaking door" slowly began to open. Every week Inner Sanctum Mysteries told stories of ghosts, murderers, and lunatics. Produced in New York, the cast usually consisted of veteran radio actors, with occasional guest appearances by such Hollywood stars as Boris Karloff, Peter Lorre, and Claude Rains. What made Inner Sanctum Mysteries unique among radio horror shows was its host, a slightly sinister-sounding fellow originally known as Raymond. The host had a droll sense of humor and an appetite for ghoulish puns, and his influence can be seen among horror hosts everywhere, from the Crypt Keeper to Elvira. Raymond Edward Johnson was the show's host until 1945; Paul McGrath took over as host until the show left the air in 1952. Producer Hiram Brown would utilize the creaking door again in the 1970s, when he produced and directed The CBS Radio Mystery Theater. Episodes include: "Blood of Cain" "Skeleton Bay" "The Man Who Couldn't Die" "I Walk in the Night" "Death Is a Double-Crosser" "Strands of Death" "Lady with a Plan" "Make Ready My Grave" "You Could Die Laughing" "Detour to Terror" "Eight Steps to Murder" "I Want to Report a Murder" Language: English. Narrator: Paul McGrath, full cast. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/blak/007570/bk_blak_007570_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.
