    Crossfire: Nick Stone, Book 10, Hörbuch, Digital, 169min
    Bodyguarding a TV crew on the streets of war-torn Basra, ex-deniable operator Nick Stone seems certain to die when insurgent gunmen attack. Only the reporter's swift action saves his life. When the reporter vanishes within hours, presumed kidnapped, Stone is asked by the Intelligence Service to find him. The trail leads from Iraq to London, Dublin, and ultimately Kabul: the dark and brutal city where governments, terrorism, and big business inexorably collide. Caught in the crossfire, Stone's nightmare is only just beginning: for the hunter has suddenly become the hunted, in a heart-stopping race against time. Unrelentingly violent, harrowing, and chillingly graphic as it hurtles us towards a truly shocking climax, Nick Stone's 10th adventure is high-voltage, pulse-pounding, no-holds-barred McNab: prose so testosterone-drenched, action so blisteringly paced, it could only have been penned by the master thriller writer at his electrifying, un-put-downable best. Language: English. Narrator: Steven Pacey. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/rhuk/000305/bk_rhuk_000305_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

    Bagdad 1915/17
    Carl Alexander Krethlow öffnet mit seiner Darstellung den Blick auf den Krieg in einer Region, die bis heute im Brennpunkt des Weltgeschehens steht.Der Erste Weltkrieg im Irak - ein von deutschen Historikern stiefmütterlich behandeltes Thema - zeichnete sich durch eine Vielfalt von Kampfverfahren aus. Die langwierigen und ausgedehnten Gefechte in der Region um Bagdad, Basra und Mossul zeigen exemplarisch die Merkmale der Kriegsführung im Orient zwischen 1914 und 1918. Der schnelle britische Vorstoß 1916 steht für den Bewegungskrieg. Bei der Belagerung von Kut el Amara wandten die Osmanen die klassische Belagerungstaktik an. Südlich der Stadt kam es zum Kampf aus Schützengräben, die mit Stacheldraht und MG-Nestern geschützt waren - ein Vorgehen, das sich kaum von den Schlachtfeldern bei Verdun und an der Somme unterschied. Zudem wandten die Briten systematische Strafexpeditionen gegen die irakische Zivilbevölkerung an. Maßnahmen, die 1920 wesentlich zum irakischen Aufstand gegen die britischen Besatzer führten.

    Eight Lives Down, Hörbuch, Digital, 326min
    Chris Hunter has the most dangerous job in the world in the most dangerous place in the world: he's responsible for bomb disposal in the British sector of Iraq, pitted against some of the most ruthless and technically advanced terrorists in the world. It is a 24/7 job; his team defused over 45 bombs in the first two months alone. And the people they're up against don't play by the Geneva Convention. For them, there are no rules, only results. Bombs, rockets, grenades, ambushes, booby traps: death by any means necessary. Welcome to the real Wild West. But for Chris Hunter, just when life couldn't get any more dangerous, the stakes are raised again. Halfway through his tour, he is told, "They want you dead, Chris. You and your team have captured their weaponry, you've fingered them with forensics, you've neutralised a shedload of their IEDs. They're out to kill the golden-haired bomb man in Basra."Suddenly Chris Hunter is not only saving other people's lives, he's saving his own. Language: English. Narrator: Julian Rhind Tutt.

    Sara Daniel, a star European correspondent and one of the few women reporters covering Iraq, dares to venture where few have gone, in this gripping and fascinating memoir. In June of 2002, war looms and Saddam Hussein still has a brutal grip on a nation in disarray. Sara Daniel travels the length and breadth of Iraq, following the fast-evolving events and interviewing people from all walks of life and all religious and political affiliations: from the Kurds in the north to the rising new politicians in Baghdad and beyond; from the insurgents in Sadr City and Fallujah to the police chief in Basra; from the hospital doctors tending the maimed and wounded to the directors of museums whose collections were ruthlessly pillaged; from ordinary men and women in the streets to those vying to fill the void of power; from American soldiers on deadly street patrol to the highest-ranking officers. Voyage to a Stricken Land offers a cogent, personal history of one of America’s most controversial conflicts. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Suehyla El Attar.

    The Longest Kill: The Story of Maverick 41, One of the World's Greatest Snipers , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 572min
    It takes a tough mind-set to be a successful sniper, to be able to dig in for days on your own as you wait for your target, to stay calm on a battlefield when you yourself have become the target the enemy most wants to take out. Craig Harrison has what it takes, and in November 2009 in Afghanistan, under intense pressure, he saved the lives of his comrades with the longest confirmed sniper kill - 2,475 metres, the length of 25 football pitches. In this unflinching autobiography, Craig catapults us into the heat of the action as he describes his active service in the Balkans, Iraq and Afghanistan and gives heart-stopping accounts of his sniper ops as he fought for his life on the rooftops of Basra and the barren hills of Helmand Province. Craig was blown up by an IED in Afghanistan and left battling severe PTSD. After his identity was revealed in the press, he also had to cope with al-Qaeda threats against him and his family. For Craig, the price of heroism has been devastatingly high. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Joe Jameson. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/macm/000910/bk_macm_000910_sample.mp3.

    On the Field: On Leave: A BBC Radio 4 Dramatisation, Hörbuch, Digital, 43min
    Annie Caulfield's comedy drama returns with a third episode in the On the Field series, originally broadcast as the Afternoon Play on 28 September 2010. Mahmoud the barber has exchanged Basra for Istanbul where his old friend Sergeant - now Captain - Billy has ended up as Military Attaché. After witnessing a traumatic attack on duty in Kabul, squaddies Kev and Damon opt for a bit of escapism. Damon fancies himself as a secret agent and is obsessed with James Bond. He persuades his mate to join him in visiting Istanbul's famous From Russia with Love filmming locations. First stop: Electra King's house. But they discover they're not cut out to follow in Bond's footsteps, and Billy and Mahmoud have to pick up the pieces when an unofficial trip to the Basilica Cisterns goes spectacularly wrong. Billy tries to give the soldiers some worldly wisdom to take back to the front: survival skills more useful than anything they'd learn on the parade ground. By turns funny, exciting, and poignant, the play gets under the skin of life as a soldier. On the Field: On Leave stars Paul Chahidi as Mahmoud and Paul Mundell as Billy. Also amongst the cast are Carl Prekopp, Osi Okerafor, Sal Osbay, and Hakan Silahsiz. Directed by Mary Ward Lowery. Language: English. Narrator: Paul Chahidi, Paul Mundell.
