The Devil’s Star: A Harry Hole Thriller, Book 5 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 846min
A young woman is murdered in her Oslo flat. One finger has been severed from her left hand, and behind her eyelid is secreted a tiny red diamond in the shape of a five-pointed star – a pentagram, the devil’s star. Detective Harry Hole is assigned to the case with his long-time adversary Tom Waaler and initially wants no part in it. But Harry is already on notice to quit the force and is left with little alternative but to drag himself out of his alcoholic stupor and get to work. A wave of similar murders is on the horizon. An emerging pattern suggests that Oslo has a serial killer on its hands, and the five-pointed devil’s star is key to solving the riddle. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Sean Barrett.

Their Ruthless Sadist: Office Intrigue, Book 5 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 846min, (USK 18)
By definition, a sadist is one who receives sexual gratification from causing pain and degradation to another. That's me, to a T. I only play with those who understand what it means; those who are willing to indulge my devious desires. Any masochist who seeks me out knows that if they trespass, I will gladly shatter them and walk away, leaving them for someone else to put back together.Yet the cowboy and the pretty boy have given themselves to me. They have agreed to play by my rules and there is only one: There are no rules. I have warned them. I'm not looking for companionship or love. I don't want to be their friend, their confidante, or their lover. I'm in it for pleasure only. In the form of pain.I am ruthless. I am a sadist. And I make no excuses for it. ungekürzt.

Into the Labyrinth: The Making of a Modern-Day Theseus , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 846min
Project Spinnaker was a joint Canada-US defense project conceived in the waning days of the Cold War. Spinnaker’s secret purpose was to reassert Canada’s Arctic sovereignty by providing the capability to monitor submarine traffic in Canadian Arctic waters. The star of Project Spinnaker was Theseus - a massive, Canadian-made, autonomous underwater vehicle designed for a single purpose: laying fiber-optic cable in ice-covered waters. More than 2,500 years after the mythical Greek hero Theseus ventured into the labyrinth on the island of Crete to slay the Minotaur, the submarine Theseus was launched into an undersea labyrinth with a strikingly similar goal: lay nearly 200 kilometers of fiber-optic cable on the seafloor of Canada’s Arctic, then turn around and follow it back out.With a foreword by Dr. James R. McFarlane, OC, CD, P.Eng., FCAE, and endorsements by several well-known experts in the sub-sea industry, Into the Labyrinth provides a fascinating glimpse into the sub-sea industry of the 1980s and ‘90s set against the backdrop of Canada’s stunning yet hostile High Arctic. ungekürzt.

Marie Reinhart is an NYPD detective on the trail of a serial killer. When she sleeps, though, she dreams of other lives; she dreams of being a knight, in strange wars and strange worlds. On the other side of the city, Nessa Roth is a college professor trapped in a loveless marriage, an unwilling prop in a political dynasty. She's also a fledgling witch, weaving poppets and tiny spells behind closed doors. When Marie's case draws her into Nessa's path, sparks fly. What comes next is more than a furtive whirlwind affair; it's the first pebbles of an avalanche. Nessa and Marie are the victims of a curse that has pursued them across countless lifetimes; a doom designed to trap them in a twisted living fairy tale, with their romance fated to end in misery and death. They aren't going out without a fight. As they race to uncover the truth, forces are in motion across the country. In Las Vegas, a professional thief is sent on a deadly heist. In a Detroit back alley, witches gather under the guidance of a mysterious woman in red. Just outside New York, an abandoned zoo becomes the hunting-ground for servants of a savage and alien king.

A Brief History of Brief Lives of the English Monarchs: Brief Histories , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 846min
This audiobook contains sharp and enjoyable new portraits of the English kings and queens. Hunchbacked Richard III, the Virgin Queen Elizabeth I, the grieving widow Victoria, and the romantic who gave up his throne for love, Edward VIII - often the colourful kings and queens of England seem like mere caricature, while less familiar rulers like William IV or Henry VI have faded into the shadows of history. Carolly Erickson's sensitive and revealing portrayals bring new life to the big names, and light up some of our most neglected but intriguing royals. Here is the puny Charles I, nervous, tense and socially awkward, the frail slight Richard II, melancholic and sad, the homosexual James I with his handsome favourites, and the stuttering William II. Every monarch from William the Conqueror to Elizabeth II is covered. Award-winning historian Erickson tells the human stories with her characteristic blend of authenticity, engaging style and psychological insight. Carolly Erickson is a distinguished historian and the author of The First Elizabeth, Great Catherine, Alexandra, and a dozen other prize winning biographies. Her PhD in medieval history from Columbia University, New York, led her to six years as a college professor then to a career as a full-time writer. ungekürzt. Language: English.
