Towering Pines, Volume One: Room 509 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 458min
Towering Pines, Volume One: Room 509 is the story of a teenage basketball star who feels his life is over when he is sent to military school to commute an aggravated assault charge. Liam Rider's star quickly falls, as he finds military school to be far more than he had bargained for. He finds the cadets harsh and abrasive; and the staff less than welcoming. When the guidance counselor tells him that he is going to be held back a year because of his remedial classes at public school, he feels like life couldn't get any worse. When he meets Lisbeth Harrington, he feels like the tide may be turning in his favor. She is assigned to help him acclimate to his new surroundings in the middle of a semester, and he quickly realizes that she is the only friend he has at the school. And when he begins having disturbing dreams of kids killing each other and seeing people in his room that aren't really there, he enlists her help to find out why no one has been assigned to room 509 for 20 years - and why he is being tormented by the ghosts of cadets past. Suddenly pulled into the past of the historic school by nightmares of his own suicide, Liam and Lisbeth are catapulted forward into a secretive society of a long history of ghosts, suicide, and murder. Can they solve the mysteries of the military school before Liam becomes the next victim of the ghostly murderer? Or will the administration and cadets conspire against them to their ultimate demise? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Seth Williams.

American Outlaws: The Life and Legacy of John Dillinger , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 105min
I will be the meanest bastard you ever saw when I get out of here. (John Dillinger) America has always preferred heroes who weren't clean cut, an informal ode to the rugged individualism and pioneering spirit that defined the nation in previous centuries. The early 19th century saw the glorification of frontier folk heroes like Davy Crockett and Daniel Boone. After the Civil War, the outlaws of the West were more popular than the marshals, with Jesse James and Billy the Kid finding their way into dime novels. And at the height of the Great Depression in the 1930s, there were the "public enemies", common criminals and cold blooded murderers elevated to the level of folk heroes by a public frustrated with their own inability to make a living honestly. Two months after Franklin D. Roosevelt's inauguration in 1933, a petty thief who had spent almost a decade behind bars for attempted theft and aggravated assault was released from jail. By the end of the year, that man, John Dillinger, would be America's most famous outlaw: Public Enemy Number 1. From the time of his first documented heist in early July 1933, until his dramatic death in late July of the following year, he would capture the nation's attention and imagination as had no other outlaw since Jesse James. His exploits were real, and in many cases impressive, but Dillinger's importance and legacy have always been partly symbolic. The country was in a panic over a supposed crime wave that some historians believe was more perception than reality, but a new breed of criminal targeting the nation's already vulnerable banks was a potent illustration and metaphor of the way society's institutions and morals seemed to be coming undone. ungekürzt.

The Shocking True Story of Ted Bundy: The Most Notorious American Serial Killer of the 1970s , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 46min
Theodore Robert Bundy, popularly known as Ted Bundy, was America's most notorious serial killer, a necrophilia, rapist, and kidnapper of the 1970s who murdered and assaulted many girls and young women. Shortly before his execution, via electrocution, after over a decade of crime denials, he already confessed to his 30 committed homicides in seven different states between the years of 1974 and 1978. The real count of victim was left unknown, and this could possibly be much higher. Ted Bundy was viewed as charismatic and handsome by his female victims, which are the traits he exploited in order to completely win their trusts. Bundy, typically approached the victims in public places, pretending to have a disability or injury, or personating an authority figure, before assaulting and overpowering them at secluded locations. Ted Bundy even revisits his crime scenes, grooming and performing some sexual acts with decomposing corpses of the victim until the destruction and putrefaction of wild animals made the interaction impossible. He beheaded 12 known victims and even kept some of the heads in his own apartment as mementos for a time period. Sometimes, he just simply broke into the dwelling at night and strikes to death his victims as they are asleep. Ted was initially incarcerated in 1975 in Utah for attempted criminal assault and aggravated kidnapping. He became a suspect in a progressively longer unsolved list of homicides in multiple states. When facing his criminal charges in the state of Colorado, he planned two dramatic escapes and was able to commit more assaults, including three more murders before his 1978 ultimate recapture. Ted Bundy received three death sentences in two different trials for his Florida homicides. Ted died via electrocution at the Raidford Prison on the 24th of January, 1989. He was described as the very sadistic sociopath who receives pleasure from other people's pain and suffering. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Cathy Beard.

American Justice? , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 376min
This book is for those who believe they know all they need to know about the criminal justice system -- the system that keeps us safe from criminals; the system that protects its good, law-abiding citizens. Told in two sections, the first a first-person perspective of a victim's husband, American Justice is a true story that provides an up close and personal look at the American justice system and how easy it is to become a victim of the system. The focus within this book is more than the victims' stories, it is a crucial and critical examination of how things can go very wrong, especially when one does not adequately understand the laws that are supposed to protect them. Paul Brakke and his wife Carol believed that obeying the law and telling the truth was good enough. They believed that truth would indeed prevail. They were wrong. Paul and Carol Brakke's nightmare began when some local kids falsely accused Carol of trying to run one of them over. The kids didn't like her interfering with their play at a dangerous intersection. Based on this false accusation and additional lies by neighbors who wanted to get the Brakkes out of the neighborhood, Carol was subjected to psychological warfare, which included an involuntary commitment to a psych ward, two psychological evaluations, exile from her home, delays in setting a trial date, and the threat of a 16-year jail term. These circumstances forced the Brakkes to agree to move out of their home to another community as part of a plea bargain in which all charges relating to aggravated assault were dropped. This book describes Carol and Paul's harrowing experience, followed by Paul's discussion of problems in the criminal justice system and recommendations on what to do to resolve those problems. ungekürzt.

VA Disability Claim Approved!: A Step by Step Guide on How to Win Your VA Benefits! (My VA Benefits Series, Book 1) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 105min
Although the rules governing VA disability benefits and the VA disability ratings process often seem unfairly stacked against you, the purpose of this audiobook is to educate you on what is needed and how to properly prepare the nexus letter of your veterans benefits claim so you can level the playing field and win your VA disability benefits claim! As you know, in order to be successful with your VA disability benefits claim, you must meet three specific criteria:You must have a current, chronic disability;The disability must have been caused by, the result of, or aggravated by your military service or a secondary condition that was caused by an existing service-connected disability; There must be a nexus or link between the first two criteria. This audiobook explains the goals and anatomy of a nexus letter, addresses potential concerns doctors might have in writing the nexus letter, and demonstrates how to craft a compelling nexus letter the VA can’t deny. As an added bonus, this audiobook will also show you how to locate missing records and utilize creative ways to find information in support of an incomplete claim. My name is Rick Blair, and I served nearly 27 years in the US Air Force and then another 10 years in my “second career” as a veterans service officer (VSO.) Now, for my third and hopefully final “career”, I plan on taking it easy and writing books to continue my advocacy for veterans because the knowledge I gained during those 10 years as a VSO, I believe, is far too important not to continuing sharing with other disabled veterans.As a VSO, I spent four years advocating for veterans' benefits at the St. Petersburg VA Regional Office, another four and a half years working with patients at the James H. Haley VA Medical Center in Tampa, and then the last year and a half providing community-based advocacy for our veterans in and around Sumter County, Florida. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Owner of a string of Northwest car dealerships and movie theaters, Trey Lancaster is living a life of wealth and leisure. But all is not well in Paradise Bay, Oregon. After cheating on his wife of seven years with the wife of a wealthy client, Trey is trying to get past this moment of weakness, knowing that he loves his wife and no one else. But Ivana Kendall-Lancaster, former international model, has not been as easy to forgive or forget. Having already dealt with the pain of a miscarriage and her husband's infidelity, she turns to alcohol, only adding to the couple's woes. Trey's brother, Clyde, enters the picture. Newly released from prison after serving nine years for aggravated assault and carrying a secret that links the crime to Trey, Clyde wants only to put the past behind him and try and make a new life for himself. But a former-friend turned enemy is determined to settle an old score, placing Clyde and his family in peril. When Trey offers to take him in just till he gets back on his feet, Clyde accepts, even if there has been no love lost between the brothers.

Quarantined Home Alone With Sis (eBook, ePUB)
Two weeks. Two full weeks home alone with my gorgeous, red-headed sister, Amanda. No Internet, no phone, nothing. We couldn’t even leave the house. Just the two of us - without mom or dad. Without rules. And without protection! Excerpt: "Now what the fuck are we supposed to do?" Amanda slammed the front door and threw her purse on the table. I grabbed some snacks from the pantry and threw her a bag of Doritos. Mom and dad had just come home from a vacation to Mexico, when they'd tested positive for the BS69 virus. That meant they had to spend two weeks in quarantine. But that also meant that we couldn't leave the house. "Tell me! What? No TV, no Internet, no fucking nothing!" She plopped herself down on the sofa, her soft, over-sized breasts bouncing with her. Amanda had just turned 19. A natural red-head, she had a light sheen of freckles that aggravated her to no end, but to be honest it made her look so fucking sexy that I couldn't see straight. She grabbed her phone, then nearly threw it when she remembered that there was no service. "It'll all blow over, sis..." I gently rescued the $700 phone from her tantrum. "Harrumph!" She crossed her arms over her large chest and pouted. "God, you look sexy when you're mad..." "What?" Her deep blue eyes rounded on me so fast I nearly dropped her phone. "Oh, nothing. I was just remarking how sexy you look." I reached out and brushed my finger against her cheek. "Your freckles might've been cute at one time, but they're fucking hot now, sis." "What the hell are you going on about?" She jerked away from my touch. My eyes scanned her long, slender legs. She'd kicked off her flip-flops and was now barefoot. Since she was wearing only a mini-skirt with trendy panties, I could almost see everything. "You know what they used to do in the olden days when they had to stay home?" Her blue eyes threw daggers at me. "No, pray tell, what did they do in the olden days, brother?" She emphasized the last word. I leaned in, brushed away a lock of her long, blood-red hair and whispered in her ear. "They fucked!" Amanda gasped and nearly fell out of the sofa. "Brother!" She admonished me, but her cheeks filled in with a nice shade of red, almost matching her hair. "Oh come on, I don't believe for one moment that you haven't had naughty thoughts about me." I moved my lips closer and closer to hers until they were nearly touching. "Yeah, but we're..." I pressed my lips to hers, startling us both. She hesitantly kissed me, then pulled away. "Brother, don't..." "I've read your diary. I know your thoughts...Mom and dad are gone. The house is ours. No one will ever know." With those words, I slowly lifted her top off.- Shop: buecher
