Docketful of Poesy: Poetic Death Mysteries, Book 4 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 543min
Mad, bad, and dangerous to know. Theater of the Absurd takes on a whole new meaning when former teacher and Byron scholar Grace Hollister is hired as a script doctor for a cable film production. Hollywood wants to film the book Grace wrote about her past academic (and extracurricular) exploits on location in the Lake District. At first Grace revels in reflected Hollywood glamor and her reunion with boyfriend Peter Fox, antiques dealer and former jewel thief. However, although the film's budget seems boundless, almost no one in the cast or crew seems to have much experience making movies. It's almost comical... until history begins to repeat itself for real, and then it's curtains for more than one of the cast. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Saskia Maarleveld.

A Script for Danger: Nancy Drew Diaries, Book 10 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 176min
Dear Diary... Imagine my surprise when I heard that my old friend, Alex Burgess, was finally making his first movie - right here in River Heights! And he was sweet enough to invite George, Bess, and me for an inside glimpse behind the scenes. Of course George wants to get a closer look at the cameras, and Bess is dying for a peek at the film's leading man. But since the moment Alex yelled "action", some strange things have been happening: explosions in catering, costumes streaked with blood, and threatening notes scrawled on scripts. I've always thought it would be exciting to visit a movie set, but I never imagined that the real drama would be behind the camera.... ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jorjeana Marie.

Lights! Camera! Sabotage? It does not take much to convince Frank and Joe to be extras in the new zombie movie that's filming in Bayport.

London Blues , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 646min
The chance discovery of a 30-year-old blue movie leads back to the film's maker, Tim Purdom, and the London of the late fifties and early sixties. Purdom was a pioneer of the B&W British porno film and a figure on the periphery of the Profumo sex scandal. He directed eight films... but who was directing him and what was their hidden agenda? And where is Tim now? London Blues explicitly and unremittingly details the hidden world of Soho vice and London's demi-monde at the time when the grey 1950s were giving way to the 'swingin' sixties'. It is a dramatic and compelling venture into the secret history of our time - a provocative and totally original novel. Anthony Frewin was born in London and lives in Hertfordshire. He was assistant film director to Stanley Kubrick for over 20 years. He has written three novels, London Blues, Sixty-Three Closure and Scorpian Rising. ungekürzt. Language: English.
