    Tommy Jenkins is the star quarterback of our high school football team and is the worst student I ever had to teach. When he asked me to give him a passing grade so that he could keep his scholarship, he insulted me and threatened to have his father, the school board director, fire me if I didn't. Unfortunately for Tommy, I was going to give him what he wanted, but not before I gave him what he deserved. I was going to videotape him in a humiliating, compromising position and use that to turn him into my slutty "teacher's assistant". Warning: For adults only.

    Hopjoy Was Here: A Flaxborough Mystery, Book 3 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 301min
    The gripping sight of four burly policemen manhandling a bath down the front path of a respectable villa isn't one the residents of Flaxborough see every day.  Net curtains twitch furiously, and neighbours have observations to make to Chief Inspector Purbright and Sergeant Love about the inhabitants of 14, Beatrice Avenue. Nice Gordon Periam, the mild-mannered tobacconist, and his rather less nice (in fact a bit of a bounder) lodger Brian Hopjoy had apparently shared the house amicably.  But now neither man is to be found, and something very disagreeable seems to be lurking in the drains....Then a couple of government spooks turn up, one with an eye for the ladies - the drama is acquiring overtones of a Bond movie! Witty and a little wicked, Colin Watson's tales offer a mordantly entertaining cast of characters and laugh-out-loud wordplay. ungekürzt.

    The car that ploughs into the bus stop early one morning leaves a trail of death and destruction behind it. DS Ferreira and DI Zigic are called in from the Peterborough Hate Crimes Unit to handle the hit-and-run, but with another major case on their hands, one with disturbing Neo-Nazi overtones, they are relieved when there seems to be an obvious suspect. But the case isn't that simple and with tensions erupting in the town leading to more violence, the media are soon hounding them for answers. Ferreira believes that local politician Richard Shotton, head of a recently established right-wing party, must be involved somehow. Journalists have been quick to acclaim Shotton, with his Brazilian wife and RAF career, as a serious contender for a major political career, despite his extremist views, but is his party a cover for something far more dangerous? ungekürzt.

    Heaven: How to Get There , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 205min
    This world that so many think is heaven is the home of sin, a hospital of sorrow, a place with nothing in it to satisfy the soul.Perhaps the greatest American evangelist of the 19th century, Dwight L. Moody inspired millions with his sermons. Although a century and a half separates us from his impassioned explications of the Bible, Moody's ardor rings with overtones of today's fundamentalist Christianity and can offer critical clues to understanding the orthodox religious outlook still dramatically influencing our culture in the 21st century.Moody explains why Christians believe that the Bible is invariably correct ("None of the other religious volumes, like the Koran, that claim a divine origin, agree with common sense"); who resides in heaven ("The inhabitants of Heaven will be select"); and that Christians are set apart from the larger culture ("We must go against the current of this world"); and more. ungekürzt.

Marilyn Dupree, passionate and volatile, wants out of her marriage to the town's richest man. Johnny and Marilyn have a chemistry like nitrogen and glycerine, and that makes Lou very uneasy. Now someone is dead out on the highway and too many vultures are circling the mountain. "Poor Lou", Johnny observes. "There's a madman running around his town, and who knows what he'll do next." Told from the perspective of a supremely unreliable narrator, Johnny Manic brings the classic crime fiction of Raymond Chandler into the modern day with overtones of Gone Girl and The Woman in the Window. ungekürzt.

    Fifty-Nine in '84 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 718min
    In 1884, Providence Grays pitcher Charles "Old Hoss" Radbourn won an astounding 59 games - more than anyone in major-league history ever had before, or has since. He then went on to win all three games of baseball's first World Series. Fifty-nine in '84 tells the dramatic story not only of that amazing feat of grit but also of big-league baseball two decades after the Civil War - a brutal, bloody sport played barehanded, the profession of uneducated, hard-drinking men who thought little of cheating outrageously or maiming an opponent to win. It is the tale, too, of the woman Radbourn loved, Carrie Stanhope, the alluring proprietress of a boarding-house with shady overtones, a married lady who was said to have personally known every man in the National League. Wonderfully entertaining, Fifty-nine in '84 is an indelible portrait of a legendary player and a fascinating, little-known era of the national pastime. ungekürzt. Language: English.
