Camino Island: A Novel, Hörbuch, Digital, 352min
A gang of thieves stage a daring heist from a secure vault deep below Princeton University's Firestone Library. Their loot is priceless, but Princeton has insured it for $25 million. Bruce Cable owns a popular bookstore in the sleepy resort town of Santa Rosa on Camino Island in Florida. He makes his real money, though, as a prominent dealer in rare books. Very few people know that he occasionally dabbles in the black market of stolen books and manuscripts. Mercer Mann is a young novelist with a severe case of writer's block who has recently been laid off from her teaching position. She is approached by an elegant, mysterious woman working for an even more mysterious company. A generous offer of money convinces Mercer to go undercover and infiltrate Bruce Cable's circle of literary friends, ideally getting close enough to him to learn his secrets. But eventually Mercer learns far too much, and there's trouble in paradise as only John Grisham can deliver it. Language: English. Narrator: January LaVoy.

His wife has left him and his employer, Farmstead Insurance, is being rocked by a major corporate takeover engineered by a shadowy private equity firm, Black Belt Capital, Ltd. About the only things keeping Jake on the rails are the time he spends with his border collie, Elwood, and the opportunities he has to spend a few hours fishing in the course of his many out-of-town business trips. Things start to improve when he meets and falls for Meg Vann, one of his coworkers. When a resort property insured with Farmstead burns down and the body of a man is discovered in the charred ruins, Meg begins to suspect that the fire was no accident. Jake is initially skeptical, but as he and Meg dig into clues from Sacramento to Meg's hometown of Eureka, California, it appears that Black Belt Capital, Ltd. is setting up an insurance fraud of epic proportions, threatening Farmstead's solvency. Fighting corporate resistance and government inertia, Meg and Jake have to rely on the wits of their coworkers and Meg's Eureka contacts to put the puzzle together and prevent the disastrous loss.- Shop: buecher

A Temporary Thing , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 286min
When Lyle Villines learns his daughter has leukemia, he searches for a way to pay the huge medical bills that come with the condition. In desperation, he takes a well-paying under-the-table job driving a delivery van. He doesn't know what the cargo is, but the pay is enough to make him ignore that for the sake of his child. Lyle questions his decision when he's hijacked on the interstate and left alive only so he can deliver a message to his employer. Turns out the load wasn't exactly legal. Nor was it insured, meaning he will have to pay for the loss by taking on a new job - cooking meth. Not only does it pay better, his boss says, but it keeps him off the road. When Lyle objects, he's given a simple choice. He can either take the opportunity, or his family will suffer. Faced with no other option, the only thing to do is follow orders...and hope he can get out alive. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Tommy G. Kendrick.

The Adventures of Cancer Bitch , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 430min
Wisenberg may have lost a breast, but she retained her humor, outrage, and skepticism toward common wisdom and most institutions. While following the prescribed protocols at the place she called Fancy Hospital, Wisenberg is unsparing in her descriptions of the fumblings of new doctors, her own awkward announcement to her students, and the mounds of unrecyclable plastic left at a survivors' walk. Combining the personal with the political, she shares her research on the money spent on pink ribbons instead of preventing pollution, and the disparity in medical care between the insured and the uninsured. When chemotherapy made her bald, she decorated her head with henna swirls in front and an antiwar protest in back. During treatment, she also recorded the dailiness of life in Chicago as she rode the L, taught while one-breasted, and attended High Holiday services and a Passover seder. Wisenberg's writing has been compared to a mix of Leon Wieseltier and Fran Lebowitz, and in this book, she has Wieseltier's erudition and Lebowitz's self-deprecating cleverness: "If anybody ever offers you the choice between suffering and depression, take the suffering. And I don't mean physical suffering. I mean emotional suffering. I am hereby endorsing psychic suffering over depression." From The Adventures of Cancer Bitch: ungekürzt. Language: English.

Garrett: Bound & Controlled, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 236min, (USK 18)
Garrett was at his breaking point. There were only so many times in a week you should have to see someone you were...attracted to...infatuated with...but certainly didn’t have a crush on. Doms didn’t have those. Especially on a customer who probably wasn’t even gay, much less a sub. Business 101 - do not flirt with a client. Wyatt was losing his mind. Hiding his obsession was getting harder and harder. All he wanted to do was kneel in front of Garrett and call him Master. But the sexy insurance agent never seemed to see him. He only noticed the nervous, awkward insured who came in way too often. When the two men are missing what’s right in front of their faces, it might take family stepping in to point out the obvious. That they were meant for each other. This story contains M/m sexual content, BDSM elements, spanking, and orgasm denial. The Bound & Controlled series follows four brothers, who are each involved in the BDSM lifestyle in some way, as they look for love. Each book features a different brother, but the books are best enjoyed in order. The books are not taboo in nature. Book 1: Garrett Book 2: Brent Book 3: Grant Book 4: Bryce ungekürzt.

Expropriation: The Revelation , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 246min
Everything is not as it seems. The universe, in its farthest recesses, unbeknownst to humankind, has abetted the creation of a sinister entity, a malign force capable of rearing bedlam and instilling fear to all that has life. With the world’s impending destruction carefully insured by the extraterrestrial body that lurks in the glitches of nature, life as we know it hangs by a precariously thin thread. Meanwhile, around the globe, uneasiness continues to foster - world leaders have finally taken notice of the invisible enemy. A telltale of a different kind. Things have never been the same for the people involved on that fateful day in the forest. As they continue to grapple with the startling reality that the world is hiding a secret that could unleash anarchy of the highest order, more individuals are finding themselves involved in what could be the dawn of the Earth’s spiraling toward the bitter end. Retaliation. There is one thing the Earth’s adversaries have miscalculated, however. Humankind, feeble they might seem in all their fragile limbs and faulty ways, are made of much sterner stuff - exponentially much more than what they have made their enemies believe. As fates collide and alliances forged, humanity is challenged yet again. Will they be able to defend what is rightfully theirs? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Scott Layfield.
