    Whisper Down the Lane
    "A diabolically creepy hybrid of horror and psychological suspense that thrills as much as it unsettles. You'll keep turning the pages even as your hands shake."-Riley Sager, New York Times best-selling author of Home Before Dark Now in paperback, a pulse-pounding, true-crime-based horror novel inspired by the McMartin preschool trial and Satanic Panic of the '80s. Richard doesn't have a past. For him, there is only the present: a new marriage, a first chance at fatherhood, and a quiet life as an art teacher in Virginia. Then the body of a ritualistically murdered rabbit appears on his school's playground, along with a birthday card for him. But Richard hasn't celebrated his birthday since he was known as Sean . . . In the 1980s, Sean was five years old when his mother unwittingly led him to tell a lie about his teacher. When school administrators, cops, and therapists questioned him, he told another. And another. And another. Each was more outlandish than the last-and fueled a moral panic that engulfed the nation and destroyed the lives of everyone around him. Now, thirty years later, someone is here to tell Richard that they know what Sean did. But who would even know that these two are one and the same? Whisper Down the Lane is a tense and compulsively readable exploration of a world primed by paranoia to believe the unbelievable.

    What Lies Beneath (A Gripping Serial Killer Thriller): Victor Loshak, Book 2 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 574min
    Some secrets don’t stay buried. Three elaborately staged victims. No clues. A public verging on panic. FBI profiler Victor Loshak heads to Kansas City to hunt another serial killer. But something about this case is all wrong. The three corpses lie posed. Face up. A glove laid to cover each right eye. The victims seem to be selected at random. Suburban. Upper middle class. Squeaky clean. It doesn’t make sense. A piece is missing from this puzzle. If Loshak can find the missing link that connects the victims, he believes he can solve the case. The obstacles are many, however. And the cryptic note someone left under his windshield wiper? It warns him that danger lurks all around. They bury it, and they bury it, but it won't stay dead. As Loshak digs deeper, uneasiness seems to creep over everything in the city. Paranoia. A sense of dread. Everyone he encounters seems to be keeping things from him. Concealing something. He gets a visceral sense of the lengths people will go to hide their sins. Bury them. When the suburban veneer finally strips away, all the dark secrets come clear one by one. But nothing can prepare Loshak for the shocking revelation this case unearths. Because what lies beneath the surface? It changes everything. This pulse-pounding thriller will have you holding your breath until the very end. Fans of James Patterson, John Sandford, and Lisa Regan should check out the Victor Loshak series. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Curt Bonnem.

    Number-one New York Times Best Seller - soon to be a major motion picture starring Amy Adams, Julianne Moore, and Gary Oldman "Astounding. Thrilling. Amazing." (Gillian Flynn) "Unputdownable." (Stephen King) "A dark, twisty confection." (Ruth Ware) "Absolutely gripping." (Louise Penny) For listeners of Gillian Flynn and Tana French comes one of the decade's most anticipated debuts, to be published in 36 languages around the world and already in development as a major film from Fox: A twisty, powerful Hitchcockian thriller about an agoraphobic woman who believes she witnessed a crime in a neighboring house. It isn't paranoia if it's really happening....  Anna Fox lives alone - a recluse in her New York City home, unable to venture outside. She spends her day drinking wine (maybe too much), watching old movies, recalling happier times...and spying on her neighbors. Then the Russells move into the house across the way: a father, mother, their teenaged son. The perfect family. But when Anna, gazing out her window one night, sees something she shouldn't, her world begins to crumble. And its shocking secrets are laid bare. What is real? What is imagined? Who is in danger? Who is in control? In this diabolically gripping thriller, no one - and nothing - is what it seems. Twisty and powerful, ingenious and moving, The Woman in the Window is a smart, sophisticated novel of psychological suspense that recalls the best of Hitchcock.  Bonus: Includes an interview with author A. J. Finn.  ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Ann Marie Lee. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/harp/006461/bk_harp_006461_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

    Backstabbing for Beginners: My Crash Course in International Diplomacy , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 865min
    The year is 1997. Michael Soussan, a fresh-faced young graduate, takes up a new job at the UN's Oil-for-Food program, the largest humanitarian operation in the organization's history. His mission is to help Iraqi civilians survive the devastating impact of economic sanctions that were imposed following the 1990 invasion of Kuwait. As a gaffe-prone novice in a world of sensitive taboos, Soussan struggles to negotiate the increasing paranoia of his incomprehensible boss and the inner workings of one of the world's notoriously complex bureaucracies. But as he learns more about the vast sums of money flowing through the program, it becomes clear that all is not what it seems. Soussan becomes aware that Saddam Hussein is extracting illegal kickbacks, a discovery that sets him on a collision course with the organization's leadership. On March 8, 2004, in a Wall Street Journal op-ed, Soussan becomes the first insider to call for "an independent investigation" of the UN's dealings with Saddam Hussein. One week later a humiliated Kofi Annan appointed Paul Volcker to lead a team of international investigators, whose findings resulted in hundreds of prosecutions in multiple countries, many of which are still ongoing. Backstabbing for Beginners is at once a witty tale of one man's political coming of age and a stinging indictment of the hypocrisy that prevailed at the heart of one of the world's most idealistic institutions. ungekürzt.

    The Crucible , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 262min
    This is the classic story of an underdog rising up against the odds. It follows the Spencer family through the eons. Our group consists of individuals who are pooling our few remaining resources to overcome the hardship of our time. Our nation has mutated and is being governed by the cruel and greedy megalomaniacs known as the Council of 12. The identity of these 12 people who comprise the Council is a secret. The secrecy surrounding the identity stems from the election process that is mutated from the Electoral College, who circumvent the democratic process into one that is more like the election of the Vatican Popes through the ages. The anonymity of the Council members has mutated from the concept of the Secret Service guard that watches over the head of state. Paranoia rules. It is determined that if no one knows the identity of the heads of state, no one can attempt an assassination. The President, the cabinet, and the Congress merge to form the Council of 12 and foster the oppression by which we live. This epic adventure begins in the near future and blossoms out among the stars, where the Fog Pirates, the Knights Templar, and the resistance known as the Polygon must engage in a desperate battle against the evil Galactic Empire. Follow the classic journey of the Spencer family to discover the Star Valley Crucible and a surprise ending. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Lynn Benson.

    Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 535min
    The name is Jones. Indiana Jones. He's back. Everyone's favorite globe-trotting, tomb-raiding, wisecracking archaeologist is finally at it again. Now it's 1957, the atomic age is in full swing, and McCarthy-era paranoia has the nation on edge. But for Indiana Jones, the Cold War really heats up when his latest expedition is crashed by a ruthless squad of Russian soldiers. Commanded by a sword- wielding colonel who's as sinister as she is stunning, the menacing Reds drag an unwilling Indy along as they brazenly invade American soil, massacre U.S. soldiers, and plunder a top-secret government warehouse. Their objective: a relic even more precious - and powerful - than the mythic Ark, capable of unlocking secrets beyond human comprehension. Fast thinking and some high-speed maneuvers help Jones turn the tables, and a one-in-a-million escape narrowly saves him from certain death. But when he's tarred as a suspected spy and fired by his university, Indy thinks it may be time to hang up his hat. Fate, however, has other plans. Suddenly the road to retirement takes a sharp detour when a colleague's kidnapping leads Jones into the depths of the Amazon jungle on a desperate rescue mission. With a hot-headed teenage biker as his unlikely wing man, and his vengeful new Russian nemesis waiting for a rematch, Indy's back in the game - playing for a prize all the wonders of the world could never rival. ungekürzt.

    Invitation to a Bonfire: A Novel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 516min
    The seductive story of a dangerous love triangle, inspired by the infamous Nabokov marriage, with a spellbinding psychological thriller at its core.  In the 1920s, Zoya Andropova, a young refugee from the Soviet Union, finds herself in the alien landscape of an elite all-girls New Jersey boarding school. Having lost her family, her home, and her sense of purpose, Zoya struggles to belong, a task made more difficult by the malice her peers heap on scholarship students and her new country's paranoia about Russian spies. When she meets the visiting writer and fellow Russian émigré Leo Orlo - whose books Zoya has privately obsessed over for years - her luck seems to have taken a turn for the better. But she soon discovers that Leo is not the solution to her loneliness: He's committed to his art and bound by the sinister orchestrations of his brilliant wife, Vera.  As the reader unravels the mystery of Zoya, Lev, and Vera's fate, Zoya is faced with mounting pressure to figure out who she is and what kind of life she wants to build. Grappling with class distinctions, national allegiance, and ethical fidelity - not to mention the powerful magnetism of sex - Invitation to a Bonfire investigates how one's identity is formed, irrevocably, through a series of momentary decisions, including how to survive, who to love, and whether to pay the complicated price of happiness.  ungekürzt.
