    Invite Hannibal Lecter into the palace of your mind and be invited into his mind palace in turn. Note the similarities in yours and his, the high vaulted chambers of your dreams, the shadowed halls, the locked storerooms where you dare not go, the scrap of half-forgotten music, the muffled cries from behind a wall. In one of the most eagerly anticipated literary events of the decade, Thomas Harris takes us once again into the mind of a killer, crafting a chilling portrait of insidiously evolving evil - a tour de force of psychological suspense. Seven years have passed since Dr. Hannibal Lecter escaped from custody, seven years since FBI Special Agent Clarice Starling interviewed him in a maximum security hospital for the criminally insane. The doctor is still at large, pursuing his own ineffable interests, savoring the scents, the essences of an unguarded world. But Starling has never forgotten her encounters with Dr. Lecter, and the metallic rasp of his seldom-used voice still sounds in her dreams. Mason Verger remembers Dr. Lecter, too, and is obsessed with revenge. He was Dr. Lecter's sixth victim, and he has survived to rule his own butcher's empire. From his respirator, Verger monitors every twitch in his worldwide web. Soon he sees that to draw the doctor, he must have the most exquisite and innocent-appearing bait; he must have what Dr. Lecter likes best. Powerful, hypnotic, utterly original, Hannibal is a dazzling feast for the imagination. Prepare to travel to hell and beyond as a master storyteller permanently alters the world you thought you knew.  Language: English. Narrator: Thomas Harris.

    When Darren Chivers, a small-time drug dealer, narrowly escapes a drug arrest, he begins to develop a different sort of criminal activity. Blackmail proves lucartive, but ultimately dangerous. When Chivers is murdered, Chief Superintendent Lambert, DS Hook and the rest of the team uncover a variety of suspects in the murky world where Chivers operated. As the dead man’s contacts are interviewed, it emerges that a verger in Gloucester cathedral, a senior telecoms executive, an upmarket clothes boutique owner, an ex-policeman, and even a vicar’s wife all had reasons to want the blackmailer out of their lives. Secrets tumble out as the investigation progresses. The solution to the puzzle is as startling as it is shocking. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jonathan Keeble.

    W. Somerset Maugham is one of the best-loved short story writers of the last 100 years. In this collection of his finest short work Maugham takes the listener to the sun-drenched Pacific islands where the Governor mercilessly abuses the inhabitants; to the story "Rain", in which the Reverend and the prostitute play out one of the most famous finales ever written; to the studies of chauvinistic Colonels, and snide conversations in Edwardian drawing rooms, as well as at the gates of heaven. As an introduction to one of the greatest writers in the English language Stephen Crossley's reading is the perfect place to start. 1.Intro 2. "The Pacific" 3. "Mackintosh" 4. "Rain" 5. "Envoi" 6."The Casuarina Tree" 7. "The Letter" 8."Sanatorium" 9. "Jane" 10. "The Judgement Seat" 11. "The Colonel’s Lady" 12. "The Verger" ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Steven Crossley.

    Drei Filme, mit dem hochintelligenten, aber gemeingefährlichen Hannibal Lecter. Sein Spiel aus kühl, kalkulierender und grausamen Lust zieht bei dieser Reihe garantiert jeden in seinen Bann.-> Roter Drache (USA 2002, 119 Min., FSK 16):Bei der Festnahme des gefährlichen Psychopathen und Massenmörders Hannibal The Cannibal Lecter (Anthony Hopkins) entgeht FBI-Agent Will Graham (Edward Norton) nur knapp dem Tod. Grund genug für ihn, den Dienst zu quittieren. Doch schon nach kurzer Zeit ist das FBI erneut auf seine Hilfe angewiesen. Ein Serienmörder (Ralph Fiennes), der in Vollmondnächten schlafende Familien heimsucht, hinterlässt eine grauenhafte Spur des Schreckens. Graham nimmt den Auftrag an und versucht sich in die Psyche des Killers, der nur die Zahnfee genannt wird, hineinzuversetzen. Dabei ist er auf die Hilfe eines ähnlich genialen und gestörten Geistes in Form von Dr. Hannibal Lecter angewiesen. Doch dieser verfolgt seine eigenen Pläne...-> Das Schweigen der Lämmer (USA 1991, 113 Min., FSK 16):Die angehende FBI-Agentin Clarice Starling (J. Foster) bekommt einen Spezialauftrag: Mit Hilfe des brillanten Psychiaters Hannibal Lecter (A. Hopkins) soll sie versuchen, einen Serienkiller zu fassen. Die Zeit drängt, denn "Buffalo Bill" hat bereits ein neues Opfer in seiner Gewalt. Was das Team Starling/Lecter zu einem besonderen macht: Lecter ist selbst verurteilter Mörder mit kannibalischen Neigungen.-> Hannibal (USA/GB 2001, 126 Min., FSK 18):Zehn Jahre sind vergangen, seitdem die FBI-Agentin Clarice Starling mit dem kannibalistischen Schwerverbrecher und diabolischen Genie Dr. Hannibal Lecter ihre erste nervenaufreibende Begegnung hatte. Zehn Jahre sind vergangen, seitdem Lecter seine ebenso spektakuläre wie blutige Flucht aus dem Gefängnis gelang. Nun bewegt er sich frei in Florenz umher, und die ahnungslose Welt ist Hannibal schutzlos ausgeliefert.Doch die Zeit heilt keine Wunden - der einst von Lecter verstümmelte Multimillionär Verger entwickelte sich, getrieben von unvorstellbar grausamen Racheplänen, zu dessen ebenbürtigen Rivalen. Als Patient von Lecter musste er sich selbst vor Jahren das Gesicht mit einer Scherbe häuten und sinnt auf bittere Rache für die Qualen und Entstellungen. Um Lecter endlich den Schweinen zum Fraß vorzuwerfen, braucht Fiesling Verger einen unwiderstehlichen Köder: Clarice Starling...
