    It’s been three long months since Chris’ little sister, Molly, disappeared from the riverbank. His parents are learning to accept the official verdict - death by drowning - and hope that 13-year-old Chris will soon do the same. Their family therapist believes that revisiting the tragic scene and reviewing the video of that fateful day will help. But something about that video is haunting Chris. Watching it for the first time since the fateful day he shot it - the picnic by the river, the hungry squirrel, and the the ice cream truck pulling into the parking lot through the trees - he comes to an awful realization. Against all odds, he and his best friend embark upon a desperate journey to prove an impossible hunch. Jeff Woodman’s skilled reading enhances the realism of characters whose reactions and situations are so immediate that they demand empathy.

One woman's picture-perfect island sanctuary reveals itself to be filled with dangers in this exciting page-turner… At twenty-nine, Alison Marshall is ready to find a place to call home. With no family and no ties, she's drifted from one small Florida town to another since high school, working odd jobs, saving hard, and building a nest egg. Once she finds the right place to settle down, she'll know. And when she reaches beautiful Palmetto Island, she thinks she may have found it. The small, close-knit island community seems to have everything Alison needs. On a hunch, she contacts the island's only realtor, and learns that an old beach house is on the market. Miraculously, it's in her budget, and Alison takes it as another sign that she's in the right place. At first, home is everything she hoped it would be. But as days turn into weeks, she uncovers a dark side to this supposedly peaceful haven. The locals have a secret, and once Alison discovers what it is, she faces a stark choice. She can stay and join them-or escape. But leaving brings its own risks, and Alison is starting to wonder if coming to Palmetto Island is the last mistake she'll ever make . . .

    Judith Sanford is the sole heiress ofBlue Lake Ranch that is worth a million-dollars but one of her own employees is plotting to swindle her. With the help of Bud Lee, a horse foreman, she is determined to figure out the mystery and put an end to the scheme.However, Bud Lee has his own vested interest in helping Judith! Excerpt: "Bud Lee, horse foreman of the Blue Lake Ranch, sat upon the gate of the home corral, builded a cigarette with slow brown fingers, and stared across the broken fields of the upper valley to the rosy glow above the pine-timbered ridge where the sun was coming up. His customary gravity was unusually pronounced. "If a man's got the hunch an egg is bad," he mused, "is that a real good and sufficient reason why he should go poking his finger inside the shell? I want to know!" Tommy Burkitt, the youngest wage-earner of the outfit and a profound admirer of all that taciturnity, good-humor, and quick capability which went into the make-up of Bud Lee, approached from the ranch-house on the knoll. "Hi, Bud!" he called. "Trevors wants you. On the jump." Lee watched Tommy coming on with that wide, rocking gait of a man used to much riding and little walking. The deep gravity in the foreman's eyes was touched with a little twinkle by way of greeting."

    I had a hunch we'd be champions! The most unlikely story in the history of sport, told by our greatest football writer. On 25th March 2015, when King Richard III, recently rescued from a municipal car park, was reburied in Leicester Cathedral, his beloved football team had just lost 4-3 to Tottenham Hotspur and were bottom of the Premier League, relegation certainties. With King Richard finally at rest, everything changed for Leicester City. Here, in his own words, King Richard III tells this, the most remarkable sporting story of all time - how 5,000-1 Premier League outsiders became champions: the goals, the games, the dressing-room banter. He gives us the Jamie Vardy story, from prosthetic-limb factory employee to the most celebrated striker this side of the River Soar; Mahrez, the great Muslim dynamo from Algeria, once stuck in the French seventh tier; the dark days of the sex video and the late December wobble; Lords Drinkwater, Albrighton and the great Tinkerman from Italy, all of them heroes of Shakespearean proportions. This isn't a fairy-tale, this really happened. From the unsanctioned hand of a much-loved Royal, the greatest football book ever written. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Peter Joyce.

    Discover the remarkable life of King Richard III in just an hour....Free bonus inside!Richard III has gone down in history as one of the most hated and vilified British monarchs of all time. His two-year-long reign as king of England ended in 1485 when he was defeated at the Battle of Bosworth by Henry Tudor, making him the last English king to die on the battlefield. Despite the brevity of his reign, Richard III managed to earn an enduring - albeit unflattering - reputation which lives on to this day.

Amazingly, Shakespeare’s claims are not completely unfounded.This audiobook attempts to separate fact from fiction to present the true life story of one of Britain’s most controversial kings: Richard III.Discover a plethora of topics such as:Richard of York and the Wars of the RosesEarly life as a knightLord of the NorthRichard’s rise to powerBuckingham’s RebellionDeath at the Battle of BosworthAnd much more!So, if you want a straightforward resource on King Richard III, listen to this audiobook! ungekürzt.

    Book three in the best-selling Maddy Wimsey, Witch Detective series! Cops sometimes rely on hunches to guide them, but Detective Maddy Wimsey takes it a step further: Magic. August opens with the bad omen of a suicide that she suspects is more than it appears. However, before she can even start to find evidence that won't get her a date with a shrink, an even worse case walks in the door. A local nurse claims she suspects one of her co-workers of murdering patients. Unfortunately, the woman has even less evidence than Maddy's belief that a spirit is throwing people off tall buildings. However, something about the story rings too true to brush aside. Believing her hunch is really the Universe nudging her to make things right, Maddy launches an investigation. One by one, she uncovers cases of abrupt patient deaths at multiple hospitals, the work of more than one killer. The victims have one thing in common: All had been hospitalized for terminal illnesses, leading her to suspect the murderers believe themselves agents of mercy. Her theory seems plausible...until she discovers a victim who should have survived. ungekürzt.
