Twisted: Bondage with an Edge , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 416min, (USK 18)
Be as kinky as you want to be, advises Alison Tyler in a commanding new collection that proves that bondage can bring a partner closer to their object of desire, both literally and figuratively. Whether by rope or silk scarf or cuffs, the bonds grow even tighter as listeners surrender to the pleasures of BDSM. Twisted is a collection of kink and bondage tales curated by editrix extraordinaire Tyler, who has cornered the market in bondage erotica. She adds "I've been a bondage fanatic since I first understood that the word 'obey' could be used in a bedroom. That on my knees on a hardwood floor could be sexier than sprawled in a bed of silken, leopard-print sheets. That a velvet blindfold over my eyes or cold steel cuffs on my wrists could make my heart pitter-patter faster than a bouquet of scarlet roses or a glittery piece of jewelry." This sentiment is echoed in the author's tales in Twisted as well. These stories delve deep down into what bondage means, and prepare listeners to bind down or behave. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Old Castle Secrets (Happil-TEA Ever After Tea Room) (eBook, ePUB)
Three generations of heartbreak. One chance to heal old wounds. "I never want to see you again!" Khrista didn't believe her daughter when Kaelyn stormed out of her life five years ago. But every day since, Kaelyn's angry words have echoed in Khrista's mind, even as she tries to hide the truth from her chosen family-the community that raised her. Finding solace in her preschool classroom by day and her whisky by night, Khrista is forced to confront her pride and her problems when someone from her past brings news that threatens to drive her deeper into the danger zone. Kaelyn loves the life she built-doting husband, dream home by the beach, and a baby on the way. But when her long-lost grandmother contacts her out of the blue, life feels off-kilter. She's eager to have a blood relation to love, but meeting her grandmother again uncovers painful feelings about her own mother she keeps buried. Estranged from her daughter and granddaughter for over twenty years, Daisy hasn't had an easy life. But with the death of her abusive husband, she's determined to start living. Step one: find her granddaughter, whom she hasn't seen since Kaelyn was five. Maybe a reunion with Kaelyn will lead to mending fences with Khrista, too, and allow Daisy to rectify all the wrongs and fix everything before it's too late.

Buried in the Bitter Waters: The Hidden History of Racial Cleansing in America , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 644min
Leave now, or die!" From the heart of the Midwest to the Deep South, from the mountains of North Carolina to the Texas frontier, words like these have echoed through more than a century of American history. The call heralded not a tornado or a hurricane, but a very unnatural disaster: a manmade wave of racial cleansing that purged black populations from counties across the nation. We have long known about horrific episodes of lynching in the South, but the story of widespread racial cleansing above and below the Mason-Dixon Line has remained almost entirely unknown. Time after time, in the period between Reconstruction and the 1920s, whites banded together to drive out the blacks in their midst. They burned and killed indiscriminately and drove thousands from their homes, sweeping entire counties clear of blacks to make them racially "pure". The expulsions were swift; in many cases, it took no more than 24 hours to eliminate an entire African-American population. Shockingly, these areas remain virtually all-white to this day. Based on nearly a decade of painstaking research in archives and census records, Buried in the Bitter Waters provides irrefutable evidence that racial cleansing occurred again and again on American soil, and fundamentally reshaped the geography of race. ungekürzt.

The Factory Girl's Song , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 159min

In their cold and desolate tenement, Olive sings to Jimmy about the birds of the garden, trying to cling on to hope. Things go from bad to worse when her father succumbs to consumption.

They try to survive on the streets, but it's an impossible task for a destitute mother and her two small children.Olive embarks on a journey of loss and survival in the brutal setting of Victorian London.

Might he be the thread by which she can pull herself back up into a better life? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Gareth Richards.

Army of the Dead , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 11min
Just a mile down the old dirt road beyond the Clanton Plantation was a Civil War battlefield that claimed the lives of thousands of Union and Confederate soldiers. For months you could hear the cannon fire that echoed across the valley. The soldier's moans and groans from the heavy gunfire could also be heard throughout the valley. The Confederate soldiers held their own for a while, but the Union soldiers were better trained and well equipped to outlast the Confederates - which led to their surrender to the Union army after three months and five days. So many young soldiers, barely 18 years of age, were taken from this world just before they would have the chance to reach their manhood and experience love and raise their own children and teach them about life. Mrs. Knoll didn't know it, but fixing up the plantation was a bad idea. Whenever anyone does renovations to an old home, this angers any ghosts present and sometimes leads to fatal consequences. As for Mr. Knoll - he didn't realize that having reenactments on a battlefield where thousands of Civil War soldiers lost their lives was a bad idea as well. The reenactment would only summon up an army of the dead with grave consequences for the living.... ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Michael Adashefski.

The Coward's Tale , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 622min
Nine-year-old Laddy Merridew, sent to live with his grandmother for reasons he does not understand, stumbles off the bus in a small Welsh town where he begins an unlikely friendship with old Ianto Passchendaele Jenkins, the town beggar-storyteller. Through Ianto, Laddy learns of the collapse decades earlier of a coal mine called Kindly Light - a disaster whose legacy has echoed through generations, shaping lives in unexpected ways. And while Ianto spins the lively stories of so many men and women in this town, it's his own history in Kindly Light that is the story he can't tell. Like Richard Llewellyn's beloved classic How Green Was My Valley, Vanessa Gebbie's The Coward's Tale richly evokes the tightly bound communities of old Welsh mining towns - their loyalties and betrayals, loves and losses. Like Llewellyn, Gebbie was brought up by Welsh parents in England. Unlike him, however, she took every opportunity to spend time in Wales throughout her formative years. Her sense of place is evoked with an authentic, dark beauty and a heightened, almost magical charm. Her prose is steeped in the cadences that surrounded her as a child. This rich tapestry of a novel is spellbinding and unforgettable. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Derek Perkins.
