    Undertaker's Moon , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 919min
    A graveyard feast beneath the summer moon.... The rural town of Old Hickory. Tennessee was a quiet, picturesque community...until the O'Sheas came to town. Becoming the new proprietors of the town's only funeral parlor, with the help of their charming patriarch, Square McManus, the Irish family was wholeheartedly accepted by the local town folk. The thing began to happen. Strange things...horrible, unspeakable things...in the dead of night. The sighting of wolfish beasts congregating around an open grave in the town cemetery. Frightening changes in several of Old Hickory's less desirable residents. And the brutal murder and devourment of a varsity football player in the wooded wilderness outside of town. Soon, what was once concealed in shadow and secrecy was now starkly revealed, in all its ravenous fury, by the silvery light of the full moon. As the residents of Old Hickory, as well as the local police, begin to fall victim to an unknown evil, four individuals - the town nerd, a high school jock, a widowed gunsith, and a mysterious transient from a distant shore - find themselves facing what could possibly be a hellish lycanthrope from ancient Ireland...the legendary Arget Bethir...the Silver Beast. ungekürzt.

    Henry Park was born watching movies. Born in a California multiplex to Soo, a Korean immigrant, and film buff, his path was forged in the flickering light of the silver screen. As Henry grows into a movie-obsessed young man, he makes a calculation that will change his life and commit him wholeheartedly to his passion: He sets the absurdly ambitious goal to watch 100,000 movies in his lifetime. Is Henry’s audacious goal impossible? A silly fantasy? Can this well-loved eccentric meet his goal? Henry’s quest leads him to a job in an arthouse movie theater, many adoring new friends, and eventually to some of the top people in the film world.

Will he put the fictional world on pause in favor of the life in front of him? In this entertaining long short story, Charlie Tarabour weaves both a bittersweet family saga and an enchanting homage to the history of cinema. If you love movies or passionate stories, The Hundred Grand Man is sure to capture your imagination - and your heart! ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Colin Wasmund.

    Admiral Bill Halsey: A Naval Life , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1031min
    William Halsey was the most famous naval officer of World War II. His fearlessness in carrier raids against Japan, his steely resolve at Guadalcanal, and his impulsive blunder at the Battle of Leyte Gulf made him the "Patton of the Pacific" and solidified his reputation as a decisive, aggressive fighter prone to impetuous errors of judgment in the heat of battle. In this definitive biography, Thomas Hughes punctures the popular caricature of the "fighting admiral" to reveal the truth of Halsey's personal and professional life as it was lived in times of war and peace. Halsey, the son of a Navy officer whose alcoholism scuttled a promising career, committed himself wholeheartedly to naval life at an early age. An audacious and inspiring commander to his men, he met the operational challenges of the battle at sea against Japan with dramatically effective carrier strikes early in the war. Yet his greatest contribution to the Allied victory was as commander of the combined sea, air, and land forces in the South Pacific. Skillfully mediating the constant strategy disputes between the Army and the Navy, Halsey was the linchpin of America's Pacific war effort when its outcome was far from certain. ungekürzt.

    Defending Eve , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 749min
    Defending Eve is wholeheartedly inspired with love by true events and is not meant as a self-help book.

He uses the lessons that he's crystallized from his years as a divorce lawyer to spur a complete metamorphosis of his character. He's proof that it's never too late to change for love and uncovers the one and only Truth to making a marriage not just last but be rewarding. Surprisingly , it is his career as a divorce lawyer where Author Adam Scott Jaffe learned there is no half-way effort if relationships are to thrive. He has truly seen behind the curtain. Through his work, he was able to discover a simple yet paramount secret that provides couples the greatest opportunity to follow through on their commitments to each other. ungekürzt.

With his reputation permanently marred by an insider trading conviction, Jamison Maddox, a young Wall Street broker, reluctantly takes a job doing research for a small company in the sleepy town of Redemption, Illinois. But when he falls in love with a beautiful and enigmatic colleague, Gillian, Jamison begins to realize that he may be doing illegal work for the company. So when she asks him to run away with her, he agrees wholeheartedly. The two set off across the country, hoping to secure some money and go into hiding. The company is soon on their tails, pursuing them with the single-minded goal of silencing them forever. If Jamison hadn't realized how dangerous these people really are, he now realizes they will stop at nothing to protect the company. And he has no idea that his lover, a stunning woman shrouded in mystery, is as dangerous as the people he's running from. "[An] excellent legal thriller. . . . Lawson's meticulous plotting keeps upping the suspense to nearly unbearable levels. This basic plot worked wonders 30 years ago for John Grisham in The Firm; in Lawson's capable hands it's once again a winner." -Publishers Weekly Praise for Mike Lawson "A reliably excellent writer . . . As always, Lawson's plotting is ingenious and his characters memorable." -Seattle Times "What a pleasure to read a book by a writer who gets everything right-the engaging protagonist, the fluid and often funny dialogue, the quick-paced and believable plot . . . Grade: A." -Cleveland Plain Dealer "Lawson remains at the top of his game." -Publishers Weekly (starred review) "This is a consistently entertaining, well-crafted series. The real mystery here is why Lawson has yet to garner a major award." -Booklist (starred review)
