Sherlock Holmes Collectors Edition XV, Hörbuch, Digital, 253min
Shoscombe Old Place: Auf dem Anwesen Shoscombe Old Place gehen merkwürdige Dinge vor sich. Haben diese Dinge wirklich nur etwas mit der Aufregung vor dem bevorstehenden Pferderennen zu tun, für das der Hausherr Sir Robert Norberton seinen besten Hengst Shoscombe Prince angemeldet hat? Oder ist hier ein Verbrechen geschehen? Beauftragt vom Cheftrainer des Gestüts begeben sich Holmes und Watson auf die Suche nach Antworten. Der Farbenhändler im Ruhestand: Die Ehefrau des pensionierten Farbenhändlers Josiah Amberley brennt mit ihrem Liebhaber durch. Das allein wäre nicht so schlimm - wenn sie nur nicht sämtliche Ersparnisse von Mr. Amberley hätte mitgehen lassen. Amberley sieht sich daher genötigt, Sherlock Holmes mit der Wiederbeschaffung des Geldes zu beauftragen, um sein Leben nicht im Armenhaus fristen zu müssen. Sherlock Holmes übernimmt den Fall. Und er bringt dabei Dinge ans Tageslicht, mit denen niemand gerechnet hätte. Wisteria Lodge: Als sich Scott Eccles wegen seiner merkwürdigen Erlebnisse der vergangenen Nacht hilfesuchend an Sherlock Holmes wendet, ahnt er noch nicht, dass die Polizei bereits nach ihm sucht. Es geht um Mord. Mord an einem Mann, der zum augenscheinlichen Zeitpunkt seines Todes noch quicklebendig gesehen worden ist. Das behauptet zumindest Mr. Eccles. Viele verwirrende Aspekte tauchen nach und nach auf, nur ein Motiv scheint daraus nicht greifbar. Bis Holmes eine bemerkenswerte Theorie aufstellt... Der Detektiv auf dem Sterbebett: Sherlock Holmes liegt im Sterben. Eine unheimliche Krankheit ist im Begriff, den Meisterdetektiv, der dem Tod schon so manches Mal ein Bein gestellt hat, in die Knie zu zwingen. Dr. Watson muss machtlos mitansehen, wie sein Freund immer mehr verfällt, denn die fremdartige Krankheit übersteigt auch sein medizinisches Wissen. Da nennt Holmes im Delirium einen Namen - Mr. Culverton Smith... deutsch.

The Devils You Meet on Christmas Day: An Anthology , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 179min
The season isn't what it seems. While some are nestled cozy in their traditions, others are lost in darkness. An unkindness of ravens lurk like a warning above them while they try to escape their inner demons and fight the dragons they've been trying to avoid. There's no enjoying fatal amounts of pie because their minds are slipping, slipping into a twisted delusion. They are the murderers, the disturbed, the unfortunate, and the misunderstood. These outliers are imprisoned by their circumstances until they slowly fade into the icy landscape, smothered by the forged façade of a perfect Christmas. In this unsettling collection of stories, authors Katie Coughran, Vanessa K. Eccles, Mary Gray, and Cammie Larsen explore the darkened corners of paranormal, horror, and fantasy to create a gothic and somewhat macabre Christmas read. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Deep Roots, Dark Forests , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 42min
Deep Roots, Dark Forests explores the unseen, the unnoticed, and the uncared for in our lives. It's the simple everyday things that are the most fascinating - the flowers, the forest, the decaying architecture in an old Southern town. It's the silent, quick blooms of an azalea, the big, pure magnolia blossoms, and the wide roots of a live oak that capture the attention here.And there's also the fictitious melodies that whisper while amongst the trees or sipping morning coffee that makes their way into the collection. This is a record of the quiet moments and the loud ones - times when we feel haunted and at peace and all the in-between.This isn't a work of fiction or of fact. These poems embody a mix of truth and untruth - stories told from a slant. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Vanessa K. Eccles.
