    The only female detective in the Miami PD's Homicide division, Joe Frye has memories that haunt her, and a past that not even her lover, detective Louis Kincaid, truly knows. It began when Joe was an ambitious rookie cop in a small Michigan town called Echo Bay. The bones found in the woods were the first clue in a string of unimaginably brutal murders of young women. Plunged into a heated investigation -- and caught between the dictates of a reluctant local sheriff and the state police -- Joe soon uncovers the chilling truth: In the dead of winter in the Michigan woods, she must face down a predator who has chosen her as a worthy opponent -- or become his next victim. ungekürzt.

    On 5th Avenue in New York City, two very different men are shopping for the women they love. Gary is buying his girlfriend Rachel a charm bracelet. Partly to thank her for paying for their holiday-of-a-lifetime. But mainly because he's left his shopping far too late. Whereas Ethan's looking for something special - an engagement ring for the first woman to have made him happy since he lost the love of his life. But when the two men's shopping bags get confused, and Rachel somehow ends up with Ethan's ring, their lives become intertwined. As Ethan tries to reunite the ring with the woman it was actually intended for, he discovers this isn't that easy. Does fate have other ideas for the couples? ungekürzt. Language: English.

    The Port Chicago 50: Disaster, Mutiny, and the Fight for Civil Rights , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 229min
    An astonishing civil rights story from Newbery Honor winner and National Book Award finalist Steve Sheinkin. On July 17, 1944, a massive explosion rocked the segregated Navy base at Port Chicago, California, killing more than 300 sailors who were at the docks, critically injuring off-duty men in their bunks, and shattering windows up to a mile away. On August 9th, 244 men refused to go back to work until unsafe and unfair conditions at the docks were addressed. When the dust settled, fifty were charged with mutiny, facing decades in jail and even execution. This is a fascinating story of the prejudice that faced black men and women in America's armed forces during World War II, and a nuanced look at those who gave their lives in service of a country where they lacked the most basic rights. ungekürzt.

    Und du kommst auch drin vor, Hörbuch, Digital, 215min
    Seit der ersten Klasse sind sie beste Freundinnen: Kim, 15, eher unauffällig, und Petrowna, klug, exzentrisch und daran gewöhnt, immer und überall den Ton anzugeben. Alles wird anders, als die beiden mit ihrer Klasse zu einer Schullesung gehen: Während die anderen tuscheln, sich die Haare kämmen oder aus dem Fenster schauen, wird Kim hellhörig, denn was die Autorin da vor sich hin nuschelt, handelt von ihr. Okay, es kommen ein paar andere Namen vor und ein paar unwichtige Details stimmen nicht, aber der Rest ist sie! Doch die Geschichte geht nicht gut aus, vor allem nicht für Jasper, Kims Klassenkameraden, der, wenn das Buch die Wahrheit sagt, am Ende an einem Wespenstich stirbt. Um das zu verhindern, bleibt Kim nichts anderes übrig, als ihr Leben völlig auf den Kopf zu stellen. Auf einmal macht sie alle möglichen Dinge zum ersten Mal, wie zum Beispiel Jasper zu küssen. Das aber passt Petrowna ganz und gar nicht ins Konzept... deutsch. Jasna Fritzi Bauer. https://samples.audible.de/bk/hamb/001666/bk_hamb_001666_sample.mp3.

    The Black Man, His Antecedents, His Genius, and His Achievements , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 573min
    Born a slave, William Wells Brown (1814-1884) escaped to the North where he became a prominent abolitionist, historian, novelist and playwright. His 1863 book The Black Man: His Antecedents, His Genius, and His Achievements portrays the lives of individuals selected by Brown that had “by their own genius, capacity, and intellectual development, surmounted the many obstacles which slavery and prejudice have thrown in their way, and raised themselves to positions of honor and influence." By making his case for the equality of negroes in an era when white society believed otherwise, Brown provides more than 50 portraits of African Americans who managed to achieve and to make a difference in the face of prejudice and slavery. The author's research in Europe and his visits to the West Indies had given him the advantage of obtaining information not readily available at that time. The book's clarity and the author's own achievements make it an essential source of black history. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Rodney Louis Tompkins.

    Home Game: An Accidental Guide to Fatherhood , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 220min
    When he became a father, Michael Lewis found himself expected to feel things that he didn't feel, and to do things that he couldn't see the point of doing. At first, this made him feel guilty, until he realized that all around him fathers were pretending to do one thing, to feel one way, when in fact they felt and did all sorts of things, then engaged in what amounted to an extended cover-up. Michael decided to keep a written record of what actually happened immediately after the birth of each of his three children. The book is that record. But it is also something else: maybe the funniest, most unsparing account of ordinary daily household life ever recorded from the point of view of the man inside. The remarkable thing about this story isn't that Lewis is so unusual. It's that he is so typical. It's a wonder that his wife has allowed him to publish it. ungekürzt. Language: English.
