    Happy on My Own , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 96min
    A collection of personal essays from a young girl, who may have been called normal, but was anything but. Growing up with an Autistic younger brother and a bulimic mother, Abby Norman left home at age 12 and became emancipated at age 16. Her freedom sent her on a journey of self-discovery that would take her to the streets of New York City, an alcove above a stairwell in Maine, to a doctor's office and operating rooms in several states, and finally, Abby found her home in the very hospital walls where her appendix tried to passively murder her. Living by the adage, "someday this pain will be useful to you," these essays encapsulate the story of a girl who survived by realizing that home is something inside all of us: a place of peace and prosperity. ungekürzt.

    Suffer the Children , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 535min
    Fifteen-year-old Rachael Donahue - abandoned by society, raised in foster homes, and violently unapproachable - has been discovered, dead, at the bottom of a stairwell at Firebird, the secure facility for juvenile offenders in Cleveland. For Maggie and Jack, her death comes with a disturbing twist - the girl may have been involved with a much older man. But Rachael's not the only resident at the center to come to a dead end. Firebird's 10-year-old wild child has overdosed in the infirmary - back-to-back tragedies that appear to be terrible accidents.  As a forensic investigator, Maggie knows appearances can be deceiving. And Jack knows all about deceit. That's why they both suspect a cold-blooded murderer is carrying out a deadly agenda. As Maggie's ex-husband gets nearer to uncovering the secrets that Maggie and Jack must hide, it becomes increasingly difficult for them to protect a new vulnerable victim from a killer with unfathomable demons. ungekürzt.

    Glimpses of Grace: Treasuring the Gospel in Your Home , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 344min
    Sometimes life feels a lot like a burden - day-in and day-out it's the same chores and tasks, challenges and discouragements, anxieties and responsibilities. Dust bunnies show up on the stairwell, social commitments clutter the calendar, and our families demand daily attention and care. At times, just catching our breath seems like an impossible feat. So where is God in all of this? Does he care about the way we unload the dishwasher or balance the budget? Do the little things like changing diapers or cooking meals make a difference? And how can we use our spheres of influence for God's glory and our joy? Whether you are a stay-at-home mom or a working woman splitting time between the office and home, Gloria Furman - writer, pastor's wife, cross-cultural worker, and mom - encourages us to see the reality of God's grace in all of life, especially those areas that often appear to be boring and unimportant. Using personal examples and insightful stories, her richly theological reflections help us experience the gospel's extraordinary power to transform our ordinary lives. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Beautiful and brilliant, Kendra Donovan is a rising star at the FBI. Yet her path to professional success hits a speed bump during a disastrous raid where half her team is murdered, a mole in the FBI is uncovered, and she herself is severely wounded. As soon as she recovers, she goes rogue and travels to England to assassinate the man responsible for the deaths of her teammates. While fleeing from an unexpected assassin herself, Kendra escapes into a stairwell that promises sanctuary but when she stumbles out again, she is in the same place - Aldrich Castle - but in a different time: 1815, to be exact. Mistaken for a lady's maid hired to help with weekend guests, Kendra is forced to quickly adapt to the time period until she can figure out how she got there; and, more importantly, how to get back home. However, after the body of a young girl is found on the extensive grounds of the county estate, she starts to feel there's some purpose to her bizarre circumstances. Stripped of her 21st century tools, Kendra must use her wits alone in order to unmask a cunning madman. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Lucy Rayner.

    The Broken Hours: A Novel of H. P. Lovecraft , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 481min
    In the cold spring of 1936, Arthor Crandle, down-on-his luck and desperate for work, accepts a position in Providence, Rhode Island, as a live-in secretary/assistant for an unnamed shut-in. He arrives at the gloomy colonial-style house to discover that his strange employer is an author of disturbing, bizarre fiction. Health issues have confined him to his bedroom, where he is never to be disturbed. But the writer, who Crandle knows only as "Ech-Pi", refuses to meet him, communicating only by letters left on a table outside his room. Soon the home reveals other unnerving peculiarities. There is an ominous presence Crandle feels on the main stairwell. Light shines out underneath the door of the writer's room, but is invisible from the street. It becomes increasingly clear there is something not right about the house or its occupant. Haunting visions of a young girl in a white nightgown wandering the walled-in garden behind the house motivate Crandle to investigate the circumstances of his employer's dark family history. Meanwhile, the unsettling aura of the house pulls him into a world increasingly cut off from reality, into black depths, where an unspeakable secret lies waiting. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    The 4th Man: FBI Profiler , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 84min
    FBI Profiler Pierce Quincy and Officer Rainie Conner return in a baffling cold case in this short story by New York Times best-selling author Lisa Gardner. A young woman is found strangled in the stairwell of a college library, only her sneakers missing. With no physical evidence, no signs of sexual assault, and no witnesses, all the police have to go on are the three men who were in the library with her: her boyfriend and two campus security guards...all of whom have secrets, none of whom can be proven guilty. Five years later, ex-FBI profiler Pierce Quincy and his wife, former police officer Rainie Conner, agree to consult on the still-unsolved case, delving into deep background to comb for any clue that will lead to the woman's murderer. But with no leads and the case colder than the body, will they be able to build a case against one of the three suspects, or is there a fourth man out there? And if the killer has eluded the police this long, how far will he go to ensure justice is never served? With Gardner's singular ability to delve into the minds of criminals and law enforcement alike, "The 4th Man" is a shocking look at the reasons for taking a life...and just how far profilers need to go to learn them. ungekürzt.

    Scary Short Stories: Time for Nightmares , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 93min
    True tales of ghosts, hauntings, and the possessed.... All ghost stories are scary to some degree, but the ones we believe are by far the spookiest. As we read these tales, clutching at our blankets, staring anxiously at our closets, part of our brains are devoted to one simple question.... Why am I so scared? In truth, the answer is simple. We are terrified of these real life ghost stories because we understand one fundamental concept - if it can happen to them, it can happen to you. Humans channel their empathy to experience specific situations that other people have endured. This allows us to sympathize with those who are down, and celebrate with others when they have a success in life. And it is this ability to empathize that makes us afraid of the small scratching sounds coming from the reciter's attics, or the sound of phantom footsteps by the stairwell.... We know, deep down, that such horrifying experiences could have happened to us instead. And when they finally do, they can turn the most unwavering skeptic into a true believer. Spirits and demons are out there in our world, lurking in the shadows, biding their time. They have all of eternity laid out at their feet.... Here is a preview of what's inside.... The house of ghosts The boy by the road The devil in the Ouija board A doppelganger at the lodge Lady in the old dress A ghost near the fire Much, much more! ungekürzt. Language: English.
