    Mothers Doing the Coach, Then Each Other , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 32min, (USK 18)
    Tyrone Johnson was a mediocre ballplayer at best. There was no way he could ever make the school team. His mother, the sexy woman with the big tits and softly rounded ass, thought otherwise. With his eyes fixed on her big bulging chest and his prick bulging beneath his trousers, the nervous man backed up towards the bed. As the luscious black woman edged closer and closer, he began to perspire. Knowing he'd never be able to resist this very tempting woman, the coach started to panic. The job he loved was in jeopardy. The obsessed woman's kisses were blazing and filled with passion. It was apparent Mrs. Johnson was no longer interested in securing a place on the team for her son. It had escalated well beyond that. The beautiful black woman wanted something else now. She wanted the coach's white member inside her awesome black body. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Rod O'Steele.

    Looking Blackwards , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 353min
    The best-selling author of A Chip Off the Old Black, Black is the New Green, and many more is black for another round of gut-busting stories and essays. This time round, Arthur Black turns his critical eye and warped funny bone to the world beyond Salt Spring Island, lambasting the amateur ballplayer who sued because the sun was in his eyes, the craze for blood sports and our anachronistic fetish for suits and ties. Yet, compassion is in the air too, with Black rehabilitating one of the most ineffective US presidents, Jimmy Carter, into the greatest, and finding a shred of respect for Conrad Black (no relation), British lord, newspaper mogul, and jailbird. Then there was the time Black found himself sleeping in Corsica between a woman and her husband. Needless to say, it was...complicated. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jeffrey Kafer.

    Five O'Clock Lightning: A Novel About Baseball, Politics, and Murder , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 497min
    A onetime baseball catcher confronts the murder of a McCarthyist politician at Yankee Stadium. In 1953 America, McCarthyism is everywhere. Congressman Rex Harwood Simmons is among the leaders who single-mindedly hunt down suspected Communists; he even claims that Communism has infiltrated America’s favorite pastime. But while watching a Yankee game one afternoon, he becomes a target. As the crowd cheers for a home run, Simmons is shot dead in his seat. The task of solving the crime falls to onetime ballplayer and Korean War veteran Russ Garrett, who collaborates with “Vicious Aloysius” Murphy, a Bronx homicide detective. The investigation won’t be easy, since there are plenty of people with a motive to plug Simmons. Several clues point to a blacklisted intellectual - but he was driven to suicide years ago. And as Garrett hunts for the killer, a new conspiracy comes to light: a plot to murder Yankee star Mickey Mantle. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Mark Delgado.
