Kissing the Enemy: Scandals and Spies, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 495min
Stealing a code book from an enemy spy should be easy for someone like Frederica Vale. As the plain-looking older sister, she's practically invisible at social events. Never mind that she has no experience as a spy or that the codebook rests in the possession of one of the most powerful men in England. Freddie has no choice - she's desperate to save her young sister from the lecherous intentions of their guardian and recovering the book is her only option. Tristan Graylocke has never been able to measure up to his brother, the Duke of Tenwick. But being second best has its advantages. No one pressures him to get married and produce an heir, leaving him to carouse at will - an activity that lends itself perfectly to the brothers' secret lives as spies. When an alluring enemy spy shows up at the house party planned specifically for the purposes of passing along a code book, Tristan finds himself drawn under her spell. Freddie seems innocent and inexperienced. Is her innocence a clever guise, or is she being coerced by someone? Tristan and Freddie soon find themselves engaged in a seductive game of cat and mouse where each will do what they must for their country, especially if it involves kissing the enemy. ungekürzt.

To the Best of Our Knowledge: But is it science?, Hörbuch, Digital, 52min
In this hour, Deborah Blum tells the remarkable story of the two scientists who invented forensic medicine and figured out how to catch killers using poison. The late 19th century was the golden age of arsenic, when poisoners got away with murder. That all changed in the 1920s when these New York scientists learned how to detect toxins in the human body. Then, a few maverick physicists in the 1970s revived interest in the philosophical dimensions of physics - especially quantum mechanics - by investigating some of the deepest questions in science: quantum entanglement, the connection between quantum reality and consciousness, even the paranormal. Some actually managed to get CIA funding for their research on ESP. Next, science historian Holly Tucker chronicles the controversies over the first blood transfusions in the 17th century and why this raised fundamental questions about what it means to be human. It's a great story about the origins of science, the fear of monsters and it even involves a scandalous murder trial. And finally, journalist Steve Volk believes the paranormal can be studied scientifically and says it's also a great subject for journalists. He considers a range of paranormal phenomena, including telepathy, UFOs, life after death, and also talks about a memorable ghost story in his own family history.

The Last Witness: Badge of Honor, Book 11 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 623min
The dramatic new novel in the Philadelphia police saga by the number-one New York Times best-selling author. For Philadelphia homicide detective Matt Payne, investigating a young woman’s murder in a Society Hill home invasion uncovers an ugly underworld - that of Mexican drug cartels and the Russian mob. Foreign girls are being smuggled in to work in the sex trade, and now some of them are dying or just disappearing. The trail leads right to Philadelphia - and Payne learns that’s not all. Teenage American girls lured from local foster homes have vanished. And the lone living witness has gone into hiding. He knows it’s got to be connected - but how? And it doesn’t help that his gut says it somehow involves that high-rolling politician last seen near the Caribbean in a casino’s airplane. For Payne, finding that last witness is absolutely critical - before the Russians, the cartels, or anyone else gets to her first. Filled with authentic color and detail, this is a riveting novel of the men and women who put their lives on the line, from the cop on the beat to the commissioner himself.
