    Roses and Radicals: The Epic Story of How American Women Won the Right to Vote , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 289min
    The riveting story of the brave and passionate women (and men) who risked everything to gain the women's right to vote and change history in America. "Women's rights are human rights." The words are relevant today, but they could just as easily have been used by Elizabeth Cady Stanton at Seneca Falls in 1848. Or Susan B. Anthony when she was arrested for voting in 1872. Or Alice Paul when she was imprisoned and tortured for peacefully protesting outside of the White House in 1917. The story of women's suffrage is epic. For over 70 years, heroic women risked their lives for the cause knowing they likely wouldn't live to cast a vote. At a time when sexism was inherent in daily life, these women (and a few men) created a movement and fought for it passionately until the vote on the 19th amendment was finally called in 1920. It passed by a single vote. This under-explored history resonates now more than ever, and will remind listeners that ordinary citizens and peaceful protest can affect lasting change in this country. ungekürzt.

    Winter Frost, Hörbuch, Digital, 189min
    Winter in Denton is cold, bleak, and a busy time for Detective Inspector Jack Frost, whose unsolved crime figures are mounting as he struggles to bring them down in the face of manpower shortages and budget cuts. Denton is having more than its fair share of crime. A serial killer is murdering local prostitutes; a man demolishing his garden shed uncovers a long buried skeleton; an armed robbery at a local mini-mart; a ramraid at a jewellers, and a series of burglaries. But Frost's main concern is for the safety of a missing schoolgirl. Nine weeks ago Vicky Stuart, eight years old, didn't return home from school and in spite of exhaustive enquiries and extensive searches, has never been seen since. Another little girl from the same school is reported missing. Her body is found, raped and strangled. Frost's prime suspect, strongly protesting his innocence, hangs himself in his cell, leaving a note blaming Frost for driving him to suicide. Subsequent evidence points to the man's innocence. Coarse, insubordinate, and fearless, DI Jack Frost is in serious trouble. Language: English. Narrator: David Jason. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/hcuk/000028/bk_hcuk_000028_sample.mp3.

    Nails: A Montana Mystery featuring Gabriel Du Pré, Book 13 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 420min
    When Gabriel Du Pré's precocious granddaughter, Pallas, returns from her studies in Washington, D.C., the entire clan in Toussaint, Montana, is happy to see her. Except Du Pré, that is, because the crotchety old fiddlin' cowboy knows that where Pallas goes, trouble is likely to follow. A van full of praying, protesting fundamentalist Christians has arrived in Toussaint at just about the same time. A young soldier follows, just back from Iraq, missing a leg, an eye, and his grip on reality. Du Pré suspects that he's going to have his hands full for the foreseeable future. Graffiti appears on the door of clumsy Father Van Den Heuvel's church, and a cryptic phone call from a missing girl causes concern in town. When a confluence of these strange events and even stranger people threatens problems that even laid-back Du Pré can't ignore, another quirky, compelling, and purely enjoyable mystery unfolds in Peter Bowen's Montana, a land trouble tends to visit often, with unpredictable but fiercely entertaining results. ungekürzt.

Beneath Facebook and Twitter is another world. One in which anything can be obtained - for a price. A community of black markets, depraved pornography, and death.

    Cupcake Factory , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 341min
    Following in the fire trails of his first two raucous assortments of sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll stories, author DJ Ass Maggots spins a third literary record off the presses, this one affectionately titled Cupcake Factory. It delivers a playlist of semiautobiographical stories organized into five major parties, and the beat never stops. DJ Maggots bookends the collection with actual conversations absconded from his secret Facebook group, "The Council." The interactions are wildly erratic, adult themed, and hard to follow - which is largely the point. Party number two, "Occupy Wall Street", tells how DJ Maggots wrote the story while protesting the banking bailout. It reveals a previously unseen side of his personality, as he pauses to provide genuine political commentary. Another addition unique to this book arrives in the form of guest contributions from a few of Maggots' cohorts. Everything else is there waiting to be discovered, from Hollywood debauchery to the Burning Man desert festival, with its electronic euphoria and spiritual reflection. So have a seat, and let the DJ spin you a few yarns that will inform, offend, delight, and leave you breathlessly hoping for more. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Sherie DaBooke.

    Maggie's Mistake , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 390min
    Maggie vowed to never marry a man who can't laugh or dance, but when she and the dull new doctor in town, Everett Dulanis, wind up spending the night together in an abandoned dugout house, all that changes. Her father is the best man and his shotgun is the bridesmaid at the wedding where a union has been made, but there's certainly no unity. Everett was engaged to Carolina Prescott, a southern lady in Atlanta, Georgia. But that, too, comes to an end when he awakes with nothing but a blanket around him and the cold barrel of a shotgun pressed against his forehead. Maggie, simple-minded and fun-loving, is as far removed from what he wants and needs in a wife as a hog straight from the wallow. Even though he keeps protesting that nothing happened in that dugout shack, he has no choice but to marry the woman. Somewhere in the middle of undoing the knot that had been tied by mistake, Maggie and Everett find they've fallen in love and don't want to end their marriage. But will either of them ever admit it? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Sarah Naughton. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/brll/008637/bk_brll_008637_sample.mp3.

    MANisfesto: A Call for Men to Become Warriors for Kindness , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 51min
    The news media is filled with reports of mass shootings, child molestation, road rage, vandalism, sexual harassment, and domestic violence. We instinctively assume that men are the likely perpetrators, and in the vast majority of cases, they are. The incidence of war, rape, crime, torture, genocide, and terrorism are mostly at the hands of men. Though women are certainly not blameless, the reality is that a far greater amount of the evil, hurtful, and unloving actions in the world are committed by men - men who are not in touch with their heart.It's time we men open our eyes, realize our responsibility, and do something about it. By maintaining silence in the face of malicious actions and not protesting, we are colluding. By not doing all we can to open ourselves to love, we remain part of the problem.These are the dual goals of the book. First, to help men cultivate and develop their natural inclination, which is to love and be loved. And second, to apply their loving nature in support of efforts to heal the conflicts that divide person from person, community from community, and country from country. ungekürzt. Language: English.
