    Charity's Gold Rush: Woman of Courage, Book 3 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 473min
    Can a woman find her worth in something other than gold, and can a man learn that some things are out of his control? Charity O'Connell receives a minimum of five marriage proposals a day from dirty miners and old men. When her pa drowned after being pinned in the creek by a fallen tree, Charity took up laundering to make ends meet. Especially after her gambling father lost every cent he ever made. Then, she receives a marriage proposal from handsome Gabriel Williams after Charity saves his daughter from being trampled, and Charity believes he's the answer to her prayer. Now, she can cook and clean for one man and his two children. No more leering glances or ribald comments. Gabriel Williams admires her spirit and believes she's the answer to his prayer. Gabe and Charity agree to a marriage in name only, although Charity is upset that no man worth his salt wants her for anything more than a bedfellow and when she does find a man she could see herself making a life with, he isn't interested in anything more than someone to watch his children, and he's a gambler to boot. By the beginning of the following spring, if both parties are in agreement, they'll annul the marriage and part ways. Neither expects love to interfere with their plans or for God to intervene with a plan of his own. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Margo Trueblood.

    Victorious!: Defeating Bullies and Giants God's Way , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 262min
    Victorious! is an audiobook of encouragement and triumph for anyone that has ever been bullied or has had to deal with a challenging life event. If you have been victimized, undermined, underrated, or devalued by people in positions of authority or who were bigger and stronger than you, this audiobook is for you. First and foremost, you are not weaker or inferior to anyone. God is no respecter of persons. Which means he will defend you and anyone else that calls on Him. Whether you know Him personally now or not. Once you realize that God has always been there for you, you will never feel powerless again. Victorious! focuses on bullies found in the bible who tried to oppress, silence, victimize, harass, and destroy ordinary people. What these bullies didn't know was that these people always cried out to God in some way. And that is why these bullies were trampled and removed in every single case. God delivered ordinary people from bully bosses, family bullies, tyrants, oppressors, bully co-workers, school yard bullies, and mean girls. Each and every bully thought that they were more powerful, smarter, or better than everyone else. They felt a false sense of entitlement and that no one could bring them down. Well, each one of them met their match when God showed up and showed out! See how God handled them and be inspired...Because He will do the same for you! You too will be a giant and bully slayer after listening to Victorious! ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Tom Taverna.

    Chicago Death Trap: The Iroquois Theatre Fire of 1903 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 449min
    On the afternoon of December 30, 1903, during a sold-out matinee performance, a fire broke out in Chicago's Iroquois Theatre. In the short span of twenty minutes, more than six hundred people were asphyxiated, burned, or trampled to death in a panicked mob's failed attempt to escape. In Chicago Death Trap: The Iroquois Theatre Fire of 1903, Nat Brandt provides a detailed chronicle of this horrific event to assess not only the titanic tragedy of the fire itself but also the municipal corruption and greed that kindled the flames beforehand and the political cover-ups hidden in the smoke and ash afterwards. Advertised as "absolutely fireproof," the Iroquois was Chicago's most modern playhouse when it opened in the fall of 1903. With the approval of the city's building department, theater developers Harry J. Powers and William J. Davis opened the theater prematurely to take full advantage of the holiday crowds, ignoring flagrant safety violations in the process. The aftermath of the fire proved to be a study in the miscarriage of justice. Despite overwhelming evidence that the building had not been completed, that fire safety laws were ignored, and that management had deliberately sealed off exits during the performance, no one was ever convicted or otherwise held accountable for the enormous loss of life. Chicago Death Trap: The Iroquois Theatre Fire of 1903 is rich with vivid details about this horrific disaster, captivatingly presented in human terms without losing sight of the broader historical context. ungekürzt.

    The Kill Riff , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 790min
    Lucas dreams it every night: the rock show, flashy, ear-pounding, chaotic. The frothed-up mob that storms the stage. The death of his daughter Kristen, trampled in a sudden surge of tribal frenzy. In Lucas Ellington's eyes, the audience is blameless. His child was murdered by the main event - Whip Hand, the ultimate party band. The arena disaster in which Kristen was killed causes Whip Hand to disband, but the individual musicians are still out there, alive and kicking. Not for long. Whip Hand's lead singer, Gabriel Stannard, has established a successful solo career, but knows how fickle his public is. He has to do something - and soon - to retain his position as the baddest, meanest, most dangerous rock star of all time. And he knows that Lucas is saving him for last in his campaign of revenge. Each man targets the other in a vendetta of honor versus glory. The Kill Riff traffics not only in the dark side of rock music and media exploitation, but explores what vengeance does to the avenger, in hard-ass 4/4 time. “Readers of this first novel will understand why Schow wins awards for his horror stories.... Strongly recommended.” (Library Journal) “You can smell the denim and leather and hear the rumble of heavy metal noise rolling off the page.” (Fangoria) “Schow is a good stylist, inventive, and has a genuine feeling for character that any novelist in any genre could envy...a master of the art of giving the plot an unexpected wrinkle.” (Philadelphia Inquirer) ungekürzt.

    Silver Lies , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 804min
    The crooked, the greedy, and those with a checkered past - they all came to Leadville with the same purpose: Get in, get rich, get out. As 1879 draws to a close, silver fever burns hot in the Rocky Mountain boomtown of Leadville, Colorado. Unfortunately for Joe Rose, an assayer of precious metals, death stakes its own claim. Joe’s body is found trampled into the muck behind Inez Stannert’s saloon. Inez already has much more to deal with than pouring shots of Taos Lightning. A lady educated on the East Coast, she has a past that doesn’t bear close scrutiny, due in part to her elopement with a gambling man who has recently disappeared. Most of the townsfolk, including Inez’s business partner, Abe Jackson, dismiss Joe’s death as an accident. Death, after all, is no stranger in Leadville. But Inez wonders why this loving husband and father was carrying a brass token good for “one free screw” at the parlor house of Denver madam Mattie Silks. When Joe’s widow Emma asks Inez to settle Joe’s affairs, Inez reluctantly agrees and soon uncovers skewed assays, bogus greenbacks, and blackmail, leading her to believe that Joe was murdered. Was he killed over money or for purely personal motives? It’s up to Inez to find out. Ann Parker, a science writer by day, is the author of the Silver Rush historical mystery series, of which Silver Lies was the winner of the Willa Cather Award for Historical Fiction and the Colorado Gold Award for Best Mystery. ungekürzt.

    Abraham Lincoln (eBook, ePUB)
    This biography for young readers examines the life of the sixteenth U.S. president and the constitutional issues that arose during his administration. Praise by many as America's greatest president, Abraham Lincoln guided the country through the Civil War and was the Great Emancipator who freed the enslaved and paved the way for the Thirteenth, Fourteenth, and Fifteenth Amendments. Lincoln was denounced by others as a tyrant who trampled the Constitution, denied individual liberty, and failed to avert the war that left more than six hundred thousand American soldiers dead. Born in a cabin deep in the backwoods of Kentucky, growing up in a family considered "the poorest of the poor," Lincoln rose to become a highly respected lawyer and stateman. He often used different arguments with different people depending on the needs of the moment, leading one exasperated opponent to call him two-faced, and leaving others to marvel at his effectiveness as a politician and leader. A practical statesman and not an idealist, Abraham Lincoln knew he could not accomplish all he set out to do, but he remained alert for opportunities to achieve his long-desired objective of liberty and justice for all. The book includes selections of Lincoln's writing,a bibliography, and an index. "This concise and balanced narrative encapsulates the life and legacy of one of the country's most important leaders.... A solid addition for understanding America's story." -Kirkus Reviews "The author adroitly reviews the facts of Lincoln's entire life, divided into 16 chapters, and examines his emergence as a politician and his views on slavery." -School Library Journal
