    Rote Ratten, Hörbuch, Digital, 381min
    Eine Reise nach Amerika, davon hat Oberinspektor Chen schon lange geträumt. Und nun soll der dichtende Polizist als Leiter einer Schriftstellerdelegation für zwei Wochen Gast in den USA sein. Diese einmalige Gelegenheit kommt für Chen jedoch mehr als ungünstig. Er hat einen Auftrag erhalten, der, gefährlich und ehrenvoll zugleich, seinen vollen Einsatz in Shanghai erfordert: Nach dem Tod eines Polizisten in einem Bordell verpflichtet ihn die oberste Behörde, endlich den "Roten Ratten", korrupten Beamten und schmiergeldzahlenden Neokapitalisten, das Handwerk zu legen. Schon die ersten Recherchen zeigen, daß er es mit einflußreichen Parteikadern zu tun bekommen wird, die vor nichts zurückschrecken. Als eine erfolgreiche Fernsehmoderatorin und ehemalige Studienfreundin Chens nach einem Treffen mit ihm ermordet wird, begreift er, daß auch die Drohungen gegen seine Mutter sehr ernst zu nehmen sind. Aber Chen muß in die USA reisen und für ihn entpuppt sich die Reise keineswegs als Vergnügungsfahrt: Ausgerechnet in Los Angeles hält sich der Kopf einer Bande von "Roten Ratten" versteckt. Da kann nur Catherine Rohn, die hübsche Kollegin von den US-Marshalls helfen ... deutsch. Johannes Steck. https://samples.audible.de/bk/aubu/000074/bk_aubu_000074_sample.mp3.

    Cyclone , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 381min
    Nora's whole world plummets faster than the Cyclone roller coaster when her cousin Riley falls into a coma that Nora thinks is her fault in this warm, big-hearted debut middle-grade novel from number-one New York Times best-selling author Doreen Cronin. Riding the Cyclone, the world-famous Coney Island roller coaster, was supposed to be the highlight of Nora's summer. But right after they disembark, Nora's cousin Riley falls to the ground...and doesn't get up. Nora had begged and dragged Riley onto the ride, and no matter what the doctors say - that she had a heart condition, that it could have happened at any time - Nora knows it was her fault. Then, as Riley comes out of her coma, she's not really Riley at all. The cousin who used to be loud and funny and unafraid now can't talk, let alone go to the bathroom by herself. No, she's only 10 percent Riley. Nora, guilt eating her up on the inside worse than a Coney Island hot dog, thinks she knows how to help. How to get 100 percent Riley back. But what Nora doesn't realize is that the guilt will only get worse as that percentage rises. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Candace Thaxton.

    Orthodoxy , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 381min
    Orthodoxy by G.K. Chesterton is a book from the early 1900s, which explores the reasoning behind accepting Christianity as the logical and true religion. Chesterton begins with the statement of a problem which humanity faces every day. He claims that humans by their very nature have a double need: a desire for imagination and a desire for reason. This could also be seen as the desire for the logical and the desire for the illogical. Individuals seek a balance between the two extremes, and the fulfillment of this balance is what leads to internal peace and satisfaction. Chesterton asserts that the only faith which can fulfill this difficult double need is Christianity. The principals of the faith allow for some interpretation of truth, but also are consistently clear about the differences between good and evil, and right and wrong. The book acts as a guide which explains how Christianity is the best choice for all human beings, not because it's outside of our world and an independent truth, but because it is the answer to our base needs and desires. Only when Christianity is seen as a way of life instead of a belief can the true power of the faith be realized. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Philippe Duquenoy.

    The Gambler , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 381min
    The Gambler brilliantly captures the strangely powerful compulsion to bet that Dostoevsky, himself a compulsive gambler, knew so well. The hero rides an emotional roller coaster between exhilaration and despair, and secondary characters such as the grandmother, who throws much of her fortune away at the gaming tables, are unforgettable. The book's publishing history is equally so: under the pressure of a deadline from an unscrupulous publisher, and with rights to his entire body of works at stake, Dostoevsky dictated the book in less than a month to the star pupil of Russia's first shorthand school. Then he married her. In this dark and compelling short novel, Fyodor Dostoevsky tells the story of Alexey Ivanovitch, a young tutor working in the household of an imperious Russian general. Alexey tries to break through the wall of the established order in Russia, but instead becomes mired in the endless downward spiral of betting and loss. His intense and inescapable addiction is accentuated by his affair with the general's cruel yet seductive niece, Polina. In The Gambler, Dostoevsky reaches the height of drama with this stunning psychological portrait. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Walter Zimmerman.
