Fallout: A V.I. Warshawski Novel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 988min
Lee Child says she's "a genius". P. D. James called her "the most remarkable" of today's suspense writers. Stieg Larsson loved her work so much, he named her in his novels. And now Sara Paretsky returns with the most extraordinary novel of her legendary career: Fallout. Before there was Lisbeth Salander, before there was Stephanie Plum, there was V. I. Warshawski. To her parents she's Victoria Iphigenia. To her friends she's Vic. But to clients seeking her talents as a detective, she's V. I. And her new case will lead her from her native Chicago...and into Kansas, on the trail of a vanished film student and a faded Hollywood star. Accompanied by her dog, V. I. tracks her quarry through a university town, across fields where missile silos once flourished - and into a past riven by long-simmering racial tensions, a past that holds the key to the crimes of the present. But as the mysteries stack up, so does the body count. And in this, her toughest case, not even V. I. is safe. Exciting and provocative, fiercely intelligent and witty, Fallout is listening at its most enjoyable and powerful. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Susan Ericksen.

What happens when your life doesn't go according to plan? Ryden Malby had a plan. Step One: do well in high school, thereby achieving Step Two: get a kick-butt college scholarship. Step Three - limit her beer pong in order to keep said scholarship - which wasn't always easy. Now that she's finally graduated, it's time for Step Four: moving to LA to land her dream job at the city's best publishing house. So far, Ryden's three-for-three, but she's about to stumble on Step Four.... When Jessica Bard, Ryden's college nemesis - the prettiest, smartest, most ambitious girl at school - steals her perfect job, Ryden's forced to move back to her childhood home in the Valley. Stuck with her eccentric family - a karate-obsessed dad, a politically incorrect grandma, a spoiled-brat little brother - and a growing stack of rejected job applications, Ryden starts to feel like she's going nowhere. The only upside is spending time with her best friend Adam - and running into her hot next-door neighbor David.

The long-awaited, highly anticipated companion volume to The Princess Bitchface Syndrome - the must-have manual for all parents of teenage boys. Dr Michael Carr-Gregg believes that too many Australian boys have got it too easy - and the result is a generation of ‘boofheads’: boys with huge egos who think they are too good to stack the dishwasher or turn up to school. They expect the world and give little in return. But things are about to change. From the author of the groundbreaking Australian best seller The Princess Bitchface Syndrome and researcher Elly Robinson comes this essential companion book for boys. It serves as both a warning and a rescue manual for all desperate parents - why have some boys today become such egotistical and lazy creatures, what can you do to prevent it and how do you deal with the situation if you’re caught up in the crisis? This audiobook will ask the tough questions and deliver straightforward advice so that the parents of today can take back control. It is essential listening for everyone living with a teenage boy. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Michael Carr-Gregg.

Iron in My Hands , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 574min
Just when you think you've heard all there is to hear about lifting weights and building muscle, along comes another 80,000 words echoing in the corners and hallways of the muscle-head gym: schemes, routines, hints, and tips with the intent to inform, encourage, and entertain. The immediate message: See iron, lift iron. The ultimate message: Train hard, eat right, and be happy. Don't you just love simple? It's one of the main reasons I chose the sport. No pitcher, no quarterback, no foul ball, and no meddlesome referee. Just you and the iron and the rhythmic sounds of action, the grunts and groans and clanks and thuds. You are your partner, your team, your biggest competitor, and your best fan; muscle and might are your favorite goals, with a good pump and burn to accompany you along the way. And none of it happens without moving a ton of weights, forging countless sets and reps, enduring a pile of aches, and maybe some pain - and amassing a stack of stories to tell. And speaking of stacks of stories to tell, pull up a bench and I'll tell you a few. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Steven Oswalt.

Granny Dan , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 314min
She was the cherished grandmother who sang songs in Russian, loved to roller-skate, and spoke little of her past. But when Granny Dan died, all that remained was a box wrapped in brown paper, tied with string. Inside, an old pair of satin toe shoes, a gold locket, and a stack of letters tied with ribbon. It was her legacy, her secret past, waiting to be discovered by the granddaughter who loved her but never really knew her. It was a story waiting to be told... The year was 1902. A new century was dawning as a motherless girl arrived at a ballet school in St. Petersburg, Russia, at the age of seven. By age seventeen, Danina Petroskova had become a great ballerina, a favorite of the Czar and Czarina, who welcomed her into the heart of the Imperial family. But events both near and far away shook the ground upon which she danced. A war, an extraordinary man, and a devastating illness altered the course of her life. And when revolution shattered Russia, Danina Petroskova was forced to make a heartbreaking choice - as the world around her was about to change forever. ungekürzt. Language: English.
