    Sineater , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 582min
    According to legend, the sineater is a dark and mysterious figure of the night, condemned to live alone in the woods. He may come out only when a death in the community occurs. As the mourners turn their backs in fear, the sineater devours food from the chests of the dead, thereby absorbing the sins of the departed and freeing the soul to enter heaven. Yet in a small mountain town, the order has been broken. The sineater has a family of his own, even though they must avert their gaze on the rare occasions he visits them. With the violated taboo comes a rash of horrifying events. But does the evil emanate from the sineater, his family, or from an even darker force?PRAISE FOR SINEATER:"I gotta tell you...Sineater is one of the best, most touching, most intense "horror" novels I ever read. I actually cried at the end.... Real tears streaming down my face.... It is S-O-O-O-O good! Read it! Now!" (Rick Hautala, author of Winter Wake, Schoolhouse, Reunion) ungekürzt. Language: English.

    A Killer Collection: Antiques & Collectibles Mysteries Series #1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 353min
    Molly Appleby is a young writer for Collector's Weekly, and when the attractive reporter isn't covering auctions and antique shows all over the South, she's trying to get her new relationship with a coworker off the ground. When her latest assignment takes her to North Carolina pottery country to cover an exclusive kiln opening, she's certain that the show promises surprising offerings and rare finds. What she doesn't expect to find is a dead body. George-Bradley Staunton is known throughout the antiques world as a very wealthy and very ruthless collector, and when he drops dead just after the opening, there are all too few mourners and a seemingly endless list of suspects. When the local police are stumped, Molly steps in to put her journalist's nose to work sniffing out the culprit. But no sooner does she start collecting clues than another dead body falls into her lap. As Molly digs beneath the genteel surface of antiques and collectibles, she finds a world filled with backstabbing and competition, and what started as a story about rare collections might leave Molly with nothing more than a collection of corpses. ungekürzt.

    Paris, Novembre
    On the night of 13 November 2015, Paris was convulsed by a series of coordinated attacks. Sze Tsung Nicolás Leong, not far from the strikes, did not consider taking photographs, weighed on not only by the difficulty of depicting a city already so exhaustively pictured, but more so by the impossibility of representing such tragedy. The next day Leong, wandering the city in the aftermath of the events, turned his camera downward to the ground, focusing on an aspect of the city we repeatedly look at yet largely do not notice. The resulting photos render a seemingly known city strange and unfamiliar. At first appearing to be abstractions or even aerials or views of the cosmos, they reveal specific details we would otherwise miss and which contain gravity in their apparent banality-from cigarettes left on the asphalt by mourners, to the footprints and broken glass of the night before, and the sawdust scattered on the sidewalks soaking up blood. Paris, Novembre is a portrait of a city at a traumatic moment in its history and an exploration of how that history leaves its marks on the city's ground. Leong's series is a gesture of mourning and contemplation, seemingly of nothing and the reluctance to look, yet at the same time of looking closely and intently.

    In Bed with Susie Bright 659: China Says to Stop Hiring Strippers for Funerals, Hörbuch, Digital, 28min, (USK 18)
    A long-standing tradition in China of hiring strippers to perform at funerals is now illegal, but the shows continue to take place. Authorities want it to stop, but in mostly rural areas, it's still common to have scantily clad girls singing and dancing for the mourners. Susie reads from an interview with documentarian Marc Moskowitz, who has written about these funerals, as well as producing a film called Dancing for the Dead. Next, Susie talks about the importance of being a "cool Auntie". She was recently asked for sex advice by the child of a family friend. It got her thinking about the importance of having someone other than your parents, no matter how sex positive they are, to go to for guidance about sex. Then, it's "What's New on Audible". Susie has a great new audiobook to recommend: You Can't Catch Death: A Daughter's Memoir by Ianthe Brautigan, who also narrates. Delving into good and bad memories about her dad, author Richard Brautigan, who was best known for his book Trout Fishing in America, Ianthe reveals much.

    Lethal in Old Lace: The Consignment Shop Mysteries, Book 5 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 442min
    Reagan Summerside returns in nationally best-selling author Duffy Brown's fifth Consignment Shop mystery. There are two social functions in Savannah guaranteed to get people talking: weddings and funerals. And just as consignment shop owner Reagan Summerside agrees to marry the hunky Walker Boone, her neighbors, sisters Annie Fritz and Elsie Abbot, step up their business as professional mourners. They are so successful that the Sleepy Pines Retirement Center has hired them as a part of their retirement package. But the celebration over good business is cut short when the residents at Pines suddenly begin dying at an alarming rate. And the sisters are the first suspects. Reagan has her doubts, however, and begins to look into the strange phenomenon. But then something even stranger happens: a body winds up in the sisters' white Caddy. The evidence begins to pile up, and the suspicious case of Willie Fishbine, who swindled the sisters out of a fortune and coincidentally died prior to the Pines case, is reopened. Not wanting Willie to be buried until they can find the killer responsible for the murders, Reagan must catch the culprit in time to walk down the aisle. Witty, fabulous, and full of charm, Lethal in Old Lace is perfect for fans of Ellery Adams and Jenn McKinlay. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Amy Tallmadge.

    Aus Zeit wird Ewigkeit
    Von Rudolf Bultmann sind aus seiner Marburger Zeit 15 Trauerpredigten und zwei Gedenkansprachen erhalten. Sie vermitteln den Trost aus dem Glauben, dass die Toten in Gottes Hand sind. Dabei wird die Schwere des Verlusts nicht überspielt, zugleich jedoch der Blick auf die Ewigkeit als das Ziel unserer irdischen Wanderschaft gerichtet. Der Glaubende nimmt in der Hoffnung bereits voraus, was sich in der Gottesschau erfüllen wird.In der Trauerpredigt darf auch der Dank zum Ausdruck kommen für das, was den Trauernden in dem zu Ende gegangenen Leben geschenkt worden ist und nun in der Erinnerung zu ihrem inneren Besitz werden kann. Dabei verzichtet Bultmann auf ein richterliches Urteil, da dieses allein Gott zusteht. Es ist Gottes Gnade, die den Tod zum Tor in das Leben werden lässt.[Time becomes Eternity. Mourning Sermons]From Rudolf Bultmann's time in Marburg fifteen mourning sermons and two remembrance speeches are preserved. They offer comfort from the belief that the dead are in God's hand. This does not smooth over the serverity of loss, yet directs the view on eternity as the end of our earthly wanderings. The believer anticipates already in its hope what will be fulfilled in the beatific vision of God.Gratitude ist expressed in the mourning sermons for what was given to the mourners by the life that ended and what can now become their internal possession through their remembrance. At the same time Bultmann forgoes an adjudication, since this is exclusively entitled to God. It is from God's grace that death turns to be the gate into life.

    Shell-Shocked: On the Ground Under Israel's Gaza Assault , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 610min
    Operation Protective Edge, launched in early July 2014, was the third major Israeli assault on the Gaza Strip in six years. It was also the most deadly. By the conclusion of hostilities some seven weeks later, 2,200 of Gaza's population had been killed, and more than 10,000 injured. In this book, journalist Mohammed Omer, a resident of Gaza who lived through the terror of those days with his wife and then three-month-old son, provides a first-hand account of life on-the-ground during Israel's assault. The images he records in this extraordinary chronicle are a literary equivalent of Goya's Disasters of War: children's corpses stuffed into vegetable refrigerators, pointlessly because the electricity is off; a family rushing out of their home after a phone call from the Israeli military informs them that the building will be obliterated by an F-16 missile in three minutes; donkeys machine-gunned by Israeli soldiers under instructions to shoot anything that moves; graveyards targeted with shells so that mourners can no longer tell where their relatives are buried; fishing boats ablaze in the harbor. Throughout this carnage, Omer maintains the cool detachment of the professional journalist, determined to create a precise record of what is occurring in front of him. But between his lines the outrage boils, and we are left to wonder how a society such as Israel, widely-praised in the West as democratic and civilized, can visit such monstrosities on a trapped and helpless population. ungekürzt.
