Higher and Higher , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 243min
The Life Story of Leonard Wayne If a fictional character were given the life history of Leonard Wayne, few listeners would readily accept him as believable: martial arts instructor, Teamsters enforcer, drug smuggler, truck driver, photographer, pilot, Hollywood stuntman, entrepreneur, and stockbroker. Yet Leonard claims all of these titles, in addition to ex-con. Now, for the first time, Leonard Wayne transparently shares the larger than life details of his journey from an abusive childhood to the triumph of faith and perseverance, a hope-inspiring story of redemption and restoration.My story is unique. I have covered enough illegal and immoral ground for several lifetimes. Abuse throughout my childhood peaked when my own father murdered my mother and then shot himself. My uncles taught me how to fight and to steal. I was an enforcer for the Teamsters, a drug smuggler, a pilot, a Hollywood stunt man, a stock broker, and a millionaire long before I could be considered a mature adult. I also became an alcoholic and a federal inmate. In retrospect, I believe what makes my life different is the intensity, not the substance of my journey. God is trying to speak to every person in a variety of ways. Most, like me for so many years, resist listening. If my life demonstrates anything, it is that he keeps trying, and anyone can start listening any time he’s had enough of the frustration of searching for something he can’t find.I am the special one chosen by the Messiah. But that isn’t the unique part of my story. In God’s eyes, every human being is a special one, chosen for greatness. The question is whether or not you will respond to God’s choice. ungekürzt.

The Hoffa Wars: The Rise and Fall of Jimmy Hoffa , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1289min
The definitive portrait of the powerful, corruption-ridden Teamsters union and its legendary president Jimmy Hoffa - organizer, gangster, convict, and conspirator - with a new afterword by the author. James Riddle "Jimmy" Hoffa was one of the most fascinating and controversial figures in 20th-century America. His remarkable journey from young union organizer to all-powerful head of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters is an epic tale worthy of a Hollywood blockbuster, jam-packed with intrigue, subterfuge, violence, and corruption. His successes were monumental, his fall truly spectacular, and his bizarre disappearance in the summer of 1975 remains one of the great mysteries in American history. Widely considered to be the definitive volume on the career and crimes of Jimmy Hoffa, The Hoffa Wars, by acclaimed investigative journalist Dan E. Moldea, is an eye-opening, extensively researched account of the steady rise and fall of an ingenious, ambitious man who was instrumental in transforming a small union of 75,000 truckers into the most powerful labor brotherhood in world. Shocking disclosures in Moldea's no-holds-barred account include the devil's bargain that put Hoffa and his union in the pockets of the Mob, Hoffa's role in the joint CIA-Mafia plots to kill Cuban leader Fidel Castro, the deal Hoffa made with US president Richard Nixon that released the disgraced Teamster president from prison eight years early, and the truth behind Hoffa's eventual disappearance and likely murder. But perhaps the most startling revelation of all concerns the integral part Jimmy Hoffa played, in concert with underworld kingpins Carlos Marcello and Santos Trafficante, in America's most terrible 20th-century crime: the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Eric Jason Martin. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/adbl/017600/bk_adbl_017600_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.- Shop: Audible

Reelfoot : Carson Reno Mystery Series, Book 11 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 351min
All Carson Reno Mystery Series Books are standalone novels. It is not necessary to listen to them in any particular order. An ex-Memphis cop and a friend of Carson is in trouble – but what kind of trouble? While trying to answer that question, Carson finds more questions - and all with no answers. What Carson also finds is trouble coming from all directions. The Mafia, the Teamsters Union, an unhappy sheriff, and some very rough characters are all looking for his friend, and Carson is in the middle of this mess. An apparently senseless murder only complicates Carson’s problems, which makes getting to the truth more difficult. Things are not what they seem in Carson Reno’s adventure at Reelfoot. ungekürzt.

Jimmy Hoffa: The Controversial Life and Disappearance of the Godfather of the Teamsters , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 85min
A century ago, if one were to come across a manual laborer from the early 20th century or the Roaring Twenties and relayed to them the possibility of one day sticking it to the man, one would probably be laughed out of the century. However, this was exactly what one man with solid-gold aspirations and audacity set out to achieve. Jimmy Hoffa, once described by Bobby Kennedy as the second most powerful man in America, was a union boss who evoked both respect and fear, and he continues to be a legendary figure who often crops up in conversation and the media over 40 years after his disappearance. While it was an open secret that Hoffa had shady connections, the success of his leadership allowed supporters to overlook them. As Sloane put it, "More apparent to Teamster members than any moral lapses were the tangible gains that had been steadily realized under Hoffa since his advent to power." Charles Brandt once wrote, "From 1955 until 1965 Jimmy Hoffa was as famous as Elvis Presley. From 1965 until 1975 Jimmy Hoffa was as famous as the Beatles." But as famous as he was in life, it was Jimmy Hoffa's demise that continues to fascinate the country. On July 30, 1975, Hoffa drove to an important meeting at the Machus Red Fox Restaurant, but he was never seen or heard from again. To this day, authorities are still searching for him (or presumably his remains), having been overloaded with false and dead-end leads throughout the decades. By championing the hearts and loyalty of America's trucking industry and arousing fear in the public for his rumored mob connections, earning a couple of enemies along the way was inevitable for Hoffa, but the mystery remains. Naturally, people have put forward ridiculous theories to explain his disappearance, but either way, it's fair to say that the legendary life and times of the controversial and still-missing Teamster leader have produced one of the world's most baffling ongoing mysteries for good reason. ungekürzt.
