    Getting It Right , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 568min
    Getting It Right is set in the upheaval of the 1960's. The Cuban missile crisis has brought the Communist threat to within miles of the United States, and extremist movements roil the American Right. Two college students, Woodroe Raynor and Leonora Goldstein, meet in the fall of 1960 before embarking on separate paths. Woodroe goes to work for the indiscriminately anti-Communist John Birch Society: through his eyes, we see how anti-Communism defined American politics while nearly defeating itself in its own extremism. Leonora becomes a novitiate in the libertarian-objectivist cult of novelist and philosopher Ayn Rand: through her, we witness how sexual passion shaped Rand's movement. But a singular romance blooms as the two make their way through the tumultuous era, navigating the political fault line that would change American history. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    The Leather Man , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 568min
    Canyon City, in Southern Idaho, is the home of Canyon State College, a small school in possession of a large football coach - Ben Steinbrecher, a man as strong as Samson and just as rooted in the Bible through his minister father. Known to some as "the Leather Man", the coach is doing his best to raise his mentally handicapped son in a loving home while the love in his marriage dwindles. Already kept from an NFL career by a knee injury, Steinbrecher's frustrations pile up while his coaching career blossoms until, inevitably, he hits the brink of human endurance. The coach's team is peopled with characters such as Latin-quoting war hero Quintus LeClaire, dropped into Canyon State's football program because of a Vietnam flashback and a chance encounter with a good cop; straight arrow David Talty, raised by colorful Uncle Joe; menacing Brock Banning; and Preston "Taters" Jones. All play roles in elevating the program and in shaping Steinbrecher's path toward the ultimate test of his beliefs and his will to live. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Michael Wise.

    Trans: A Memoir , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 568min
    In July 2012, aged 30, Juliet Jacques underwent sex reassignment surgery and felt for the first time that her body matched the person she felt she had been since childhood. Through university and then in a series of dead end clerical jobs, Jacques felt out of place with her surroundings and with who she really was. Living in Brighton, trying to launch a career as a writer, she navigates the hostilities and misunderstandings of growing up in a time when the mainstream media - and even feminism - fail to acknowledge transgender identity. Yet through films, music, politics and football, she begins to find herself and starts the process of transition - and life beyond. Throughout her memoir, Jacques interweaves the narrative with powerful explorations of many of the major debates surrounding trans: the uses of life writing, the relationship with feminism, and the before and after images that illustrated so many articles and documentaries. Brilliantly written, revealing and honest, Trans also includes an epilogue with award-winning author Sheila Heti, in which Jacques and Heti discuss the issues facing transgender people. ungekürzt.

    Tooth and Claw , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 568min
    DCI Mark Lapslie suffers from a rare neurological condition that ‘cross-wires’ his senses. The sickening clamour of sounds he can taste has smothered his marriage and stifled his career...and it’s getting worse. His colleagues have written him off as a drunk – or worse – and Lapslie has quarantined himself in an isolated Essex cottage. Carl Whittley has got his own problems to deal with too: he’s just tortured a minor TV celebrity to death and blown an apparently anonymous commuter to pieces. DCI Lapslie is drawn into a deadly game where the troubled detective might just discover that his gravest weakness is also his greatest strength. Nigel McCrery worked as a detective in the Nottinghamshire Constabulary, until he left the force to study at Cambridge University. He has created and written some of the most successful television series, including Silent Witness, Born & Bred, New Tricks and All the King’s Men. He is also the author of five internationally bestselling Sam Ryan mysteries. Nigel lives in North London. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Mark Meadows.

So, when her trusted long-time married friend, Nancy, begs Lucy to sleep with her husband to save her marriage, Lucy goes for it.

It’s not a bad life, but when one of the group members goes astray, it sets in motion a series of events that will threaten to destroy the delicate balance that has kept Dave and his clan off the radar.
