Code Name: Camelot: Noah Wolf, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 491min
After witnessing the murder-suicide of his parents as a child, Noah Wolf suffers from a form of PTSD that has left him without emotion, without a conscience, and without the ability to function as a normal human being. With the help of childhood friends, he learns to watch others around him and mimic their behaviors, in order to conceal the fact that his mind operates more like a computer that he has spent years programming. That program is what allows Noah to pass himself off as normal, by establishing parameters of right and wrong that are completely inviolable to him. As a young adult, Noah finds structure in the U.S. Army, and becomes an excellent and exemplary soldier, but when his self-imposed programming is put to the test by the murderous acts of the superior officer, Noah finds himself quickly made expendable, charged with crimes he did not commit and facing the possibility of execution. Without any reasonable hope for a reprieve, Noah's logic-based mind accepts his fate. Sometimes, though, things are not all as they seem to be, and Noah is offered one chance to save himself. It was his disability, his lack of emotion, that made him the soldier he had become. Now, an ultra-secret organization known as E&E wants Noah's talents, offering him a chance to survive as the most deadly assassin the world has ever known. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Old News: An Edna Ferber Mystery , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 596min
A sweltering July in Chicago, 1923. Edna Ferber, now a famous short-story writer, is supposed to be researching the novel that will become So Big, her Pulitzer-Prize winner. With her mother, Julia, she spends the week visiting her mother's old childhood friend, Esther Newmann, who lives with her family on the edge of the bustling Maxwell Street Jewish marketplace. But the awful specter of a scandalous murder 15 years before suddenly haunts Edna. Leah Brenner, the woman confined to a mental hospital after stabbing her husband Ivan to death, is back home, sitting next door on her front porch. Horrified, Julia Ferber laments the return of a brazen murderer to the quiet street. But Edna, meeting the old woman, believes she was condemned for a murder she did not commit. "Leave it alone," the Newmann grandmother Molly insists - "it's old news." Although life has moved on, even Leah's children believe their mother stabbed their father. After all, she was found standing over her husband's body, blood on her fingertips. But no knife was ever located. As Edna probes into the Brenner family - grown children at war with one another, a flashy uncle who once wanted to marry Leah - Edna shakes up the street. Undaunted, she has an idea who the murderer is, but she needs an elaborate scheme to trap the killer. Another shocking death and a funeral give her the opportunity. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Waxing & Waning: Covenant College, Book 4 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 452min
Zoe Lake is depressed. Well, at least that's what everyone keeps telling her. As she enters her junior year, she feels more numb than anything else. Between the guilt plaguing her over her former roommate's death, and the betrayal crushing her heart thanks to her ex-boyfriend Aric, Zoe is struggling to make sense of her world. She makes a pledge to move forward, and she's even entertaining the idea of letting the friendly neighborhood vampire make a play for her heart. Something just doesn't feel right, though. Zoe finally agrees to join the Covenant College monster hunters and enlists in the Academy. The problem is, she doesn't trust them any more than she trusts the monsters they purport to hunt. Her roommates, Paris and Kelsey, are worried. They want to help, but they're not sure they're capable of fixing what's broken. Only one person can do that, and Zoe no longer trusts Aric to fix anything. Between Aric's new girlfriend, Rafael's peculiar brand of courting, and the growing sense of dread spreading across the campus, Zoe has her hands full. When things start to come into focus, Zoe has a decision to make: Either she's going to commit to being a full-fledged member of the Academy, or she's finally going to accept that she's actually one of the monsters they're hunting. In the end, Zoe will have no choice but to follow her heart - wherever it may lead. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Angel Clark.

True Crime Stories: A Prequel: 4 Shocking True Crime Cases , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 98min
There are killers who stalk their prey, learning all they can about an intended target before striking. Some commit the act of murder out of hatred or revenge for someone in their lives. Killers like Detlev Guenzel searched for like-minded souls who would allow them to indulge in their deepest darkest fantasies. Then of course, there are those who brutally murder for no apparent reason whatsoever. Each of the four true crime murder cases in this true crime anthology are different from each other in many ways: the wife who was cast aside for a much younger model; the vore who sought out a willing participant in the act of consensual homicide and cannibalism; the young man who butchered his elderly neighbours; and the man whose partners either disappeared or turned up dead over the period of 54 years. For these true crime murder stories we delve into the background of each killer, the acts they committed, and the criminal investigation that brought them down. We look at why they killed, even when there seems to be no apparent motive. True murder cases like these are hard to fathom, and will leave you wondering about the horrors of humanity. True crime stories are the most frightening of all, as you discover what people have the capability of doing to others. This is a prequel to Jack Rosewood's best true crime book series, True Crime Stories. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Kevin Kollins.
