    Dick Sirius and the Land of the Dead , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 570min
    This is a movie for your mind - the enhanced audio presentation - based on the novel by J. D. Winthrop. Narrated and all characters played by West End actor James Head. Featuring full soundscape, ambient, and incidental sound effects - and original musical score.  How would it be if everything you thought you knew about your world was a lie - and that every myth, legend, and conspiracy theory was, in fact, the truth? Well, it would certainly rattle your marbles, that's for sure.  It especially rattled those of Dick Sirius, and that's because he's already missing a few. He has no recollection of his life before the age of 18. He just woke up one day in a hostel in Rickmansworth with nothing but his clothes, a cheque for 5,000 pounds, and a tube of acne cream.  Welcome to the magical, fantastic, and downright dangerous world of Dick Sirius: a different type of hero for a very different world. He's just a man, but a man who doesn't know who he is, why he's here, or what's going on; and he'll be damned if he's not going to find out, even if it kills him. It probably will. ungekürzt.

    Black Hole, White Fountain: The Ferryman Pentalogy, Book 4 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 134min
    The hologram faded away and a silence fell over the glade as Dravidian reseated himself upon the rock. Sthulhu remained respectfully silent. In his mind's eye Dravidian saw Pepperlung on the deck of their great dragger, The Vorpal Gladio, saw him glance over his shoulder at the prefect as his tone became grave: 'Beware, Dravidian. The bride is just sightseeing but Asmodeus is here for you. You are the only ferryman up for elevation this year. Watch yourself. There will be a test, surely.' The ground trembled suddenly and the remnants of the cage rattled as a minor Ursaquake shook the glade, and the sun orb went from gold to orange. A horse whinnied in the distance and Dravidian looked out across Parvus’ homestead to see a great steed leap up in its corral. The slightest push against the dilapidated boards would have freed it - but the creature either did not know or did not care. The horse, however mighty, knew its place. It knew in its primitive yet tamed wiring what Dravidian, in his advanced and now liberated own, did not: that nothing lay beyond its cage that did not already exist in abundance within. ungekürzt.

    Dangerous to Know: Women, Crime, and Notoriety in the Early Republic , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 439min
    In 1823, the History of the Celebrated Mrs. Ann Carson rattled Philadelphia society and became one of the most scandalous, and popular, memoirs of the age. This tale of a woman who tried to rescue her lover from the gallows and attempted to kidnap the governor of Pennsylvania tantalized its audience with illicit love, betrayal, and murder. Carson's ghostwriter, Mary Clarke, was no less daring. Clarke pursued dangerous associations and wrote scandalous exposés based on her own and others' experiences. She immersed herself in the world of criminals and disreputable actors, using her acquaintance with this demimonde to shape a career as a sensationalist writer. In Dangerous to Know, Susan Branson follows the fascinating lives of Ann Carson and Mary Clarke, offering an engaging study of gender and class in the early 19th century. According to Branson, episodes in both women's lives illustrate their struggles within a society that constrained women's activities and ambitions. She argues that both women simultaneously tried to conform to and manipulate the dominant sexual, economic, and social ideologies of the time. In their own lives and through their writing, the pair challenged conventions prescribed by these ideologies to further their own ends and redefine what was possible for women in early American public life. ungekürzt.

    The Golden Girls meets Remington Steel in Lee Hollis's latest Desert Flowers Mystery starring retiree-turned-private-investigator Poppy Harmon… Private investigator Poppy Harmon likes the anonymity of working behind the scenes for the hottest names in Palm Springs. But when solving a case demands dragging her old acting career out of retirement, it's lights…camera…murder! Cast in her first role since the 1980s, Poppy has never been more rattled or unprepared on a film set. It's an embarrassing but necessary cover to keep an eye on client Danika Delgado, a rising starlet and social media influencer with a large following-including a dangerous stalker who won't disappear. Unfortunately for Poppy, there's more to fear than flubbed lines. When she finds Danika smothered to death in her trailer at Joshua Tree National Park, the horrifying crime stirs up memories of a man known as the Pillow Talk Killer during her time as a young actress. A trail of clues urges Poppy, hunky sidekick Matt Flowers, and the rest of the Desert Flowers Detective Agency gang on a frantic chase after Danika's crazed #1 fan. But as co-stars and production crew members start looking equally suspicious, Poppy must expose a slew of insidious industry secrets before a murderer rolls out the red carpet for someone else…
