Divas Do Tell: The Dixie Diva Mystery Series, Book 5 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 768min
Lights! Camera! Murder! Trinket and the gang, beware! Hollywood descends on Holly Springs, and soon it’s up to the Divas to keep the stars from falling like magnolia blooms in a trailer-park tornado. Someone doesn’t want dark secrets under the holly to reach the big screen. He - or she - is willing to kill locals, movie stars, and maybe even Divas to stop it. Diva-sister Dixie Lee Forsythe wrote the juicy tell-all about a historic Mississippi town very much like Holly Springs, and a lot of townsfolk would be happy to strangle her. Bitty is in a blond lather over a gossipy storyline about a philandering Senator who very much resembles her late husband. And even Trinket’s a little miffed at Dixie Lee’s oh-so-recognizable Trinket Truevine character, described as, "built like a girls’ basketball coach - not necessarily a female one". Dixie Lee starts getting mysterious death threats, an actress brings being a diva to heights even Bitty can’t match, and a production assistant is murdered. If Trinket, Bitty, and the Divas don’t solve this case quick, Oscars season in Tinsel Town will be short a whole bunch of stars. Virginia Brown is the author of more than 50 novels in romance, mystery, and general fiction. Her best-selling Dixie Divas Mysteries continues in 2014 with a sixth novel. She lives in a small Mississippi town that inspires her stories about Holly Springs. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Karen Commins.

A Gentleman Called , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 462min
In grand master of crime fiction Dorothy Salisbury Davis’ second Mrs. Norris novel, which the New York Times hailed as “tensely perplexing”, the crime-solving Scottish housekeeper helps crack the case of a serial lady-killer. As housekeeper to James Jarvis' recently deceased father, a retired major general of the US Army, Mrs. Norris has raised Jimmie since boyhood. Now the Wall Street lawyer faces a challenging case. The son of one of the firm’s old blue-blood clients has been slapped with a paternity suit. But Teddy Adkins swears he never slept with the woman. Meanwhile, Mrs. Norris is miffed when her gentleman friend Jasper Tully, the widowed chief investigator for the Manhattan DA’s office, cancels one dinner date after another because a real estate magnate has been found strangled in the bedroom of her Upper East Side apartment. Jewelry was stolen, but there are no signs of a break-in. Tully’s investigation turns up a trail of strangulations that extends all the way to the Midwest. As Mrs. Norris pursues her own unorthodox investigation, she uncovers a shocking link between the cases that threatens her very life. A Gentleman Called, a finalist for the Mystery Writers of America’s Edgar Award, is the second novel in Dorothy Salisbury Davis’ Mrs. Norris Mysteries, which also include Death of an Old Sinner, Old Sinners Never Die, and “Mrs. Norris Observes”, a short story in the collection Tales for a Stormy Night. ungekürzt.

Mean Streak , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 711min
From number one New York Times best-selling author Sandra Brown comes a heart-pounding story of survival, that takes the age-old question, "Does the end justify the means?" and turns it on its head. Dr. Emory Charbonneau, a pediatrician and marathon runner, disappears on a mountain road in North Carolina. By the time her husband Jeff, miffed over a recent argument, reports her missing, the trail has grown cold. Literally. Fog and ice encapsulate the mountainous wilderness and paralyze the search for her. While police suspect Jeff of "instant divorce," Emory, suffering from an unexplained head injury, regains consciousness and finds herself the captive of a man whose violent past is so dark that he won't even tell her his name. She's determined to escape him, and willing to take any risks necessary to survive. Unexpectedly, however, the two have a dangerous encounter with people who adhere to a code of justice all their own. At the center of the dispute is a desperate young woman whom Emory can't turn her back on, even if it means breaking the law. Wrong becomes right at the hands of the man who strikes fear, but also sparks passion. As her husband's deception is revealed, and the FBI closes in on her captor, Emory begins to wonder if the man with no name is, in fact, her rescuer from those who wish her dead - and from heartbreak. Combining the nail-biting suspense and potent storytelling that has made Sandra Brown one of the world's best loved authors, Mean Streak is a wildly compelling novel about love, deceit, and the choices we must make in order to survive. ungekürzt.

Jack & the Beanstalk and Other Stories: The Story Mouse, Volume 2 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 60min
Jack and the Beanstalk and Other Stories brings together another four of the world's favourite children's fairytales. Written and read with character and fun, this is storytelling at its best! Jack and the Beanstalk Jack and his mum have fallen on hard times but when Jack comes home with a bagful of beans after selling the family cow, Dairy Mary, it’s just the start of one big, magical adventure. A real panto favourite at Christmas, this traditional story, adapted from the original and read by Joanna Pinnock, is full of fun and colour – with lots of purple! Puss in Boots This is the story of a very cunning, imaginative and clever cat. When a miller's son is given a cat by his father he feels a little miffed (after all, his brothers got a working mill and a horse and cart!). But this cat is no ordinary cat and as the story develops the cat's plans to bring fortune to the miller's son unfold. This story from Charles Perrault has been adapted and re-told by Alan Smith. It has all the ingredients needed for a classic fairy tale: magic, a palace, a king, a queen, a princess, a talking animal, and an ogre - who could ask for more?! Hansel and Gretel Good triumphs over evil in this story from the Brothers Grimm. An unkind stepmother tries her best to lose young Hansel and Gretel in the forest, but she reckons without their resourcefulness. A house made of sweets and the strange green woman who lives in it is one of the hiccups along the way, but ultimately all is well in the end. Adapted by Moy McGowan and retaining a very traditional feel, this story is one of light and shade and is read by Kathy Clugston whose soft Irish accent makes the reading particularly engaging. Also includes “Rumpelstiltskin”. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Joanna Pinnock, Alan Smith, Kathy Clugston. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/stms/000001/bk_stms_000001_sample.mp3.

Spell of the Black Unicorn: Chronicles of Zofia Trickenbod, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1005min
Zofia Trickenbod is a sorceress from another planet living here on modern-day Earth (which leads to a lot of lying). She's trying to keep the Stone of Irdisi (the most powerful magical implement from her world, of which she is the current keeper), out of the hands of the ex-Dark Lord Vesselvod Blood's grasp, risking life and better judgment in order to do so. Blood wants the Stone so as to become all-powerful again (what's up with these dark lords, anyway?)For the past five years, Dorian, her husband, has been thought to be dead. So, when he returns as an “undead”, Zofia is a bit miffed (more than mildly) at him for not getting word to her so that she wouldn't try and make a new life for herself on this strange planet where she and her offspring can't practice magic in the open (and where a nosy neighbor calls in the police if she so much as sneezes).But after a while, she gets used to Dorian being a vampire. In fact, he's quite good at it, along with being something of a scoundrel. But he needs his powers back, which means he has to become human again. Zofia and her Aunt Tillie team up to find a spell and potion that can return him to the living. But before they can give it to him, he becomes a prime suspect in a murder investigation and is put in jail.Her cop boyfriend Richard (yes, her life is just full of crazy events) finds it difficult to accept that Zofia's husband just happened to return after she'd told him he was dead. So, when Dorian disappears from his jail, Richard is determined to find him and stalks Zofia and searches her house.Not to forget our mythical creature, the black unicorn, which is spotted early on - a warning that Blood is in the vicinity, as the creature goes where he goes, hoping to get his white coat back. This causes alarm in the family. Meanwhile, the unicorn becomes infatuated with Zofia's 16-year old daughter Blanche. When nosy neighbor Lolly spots the animal, it's just another excuse for her to call th ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Bridget Shapiro.

The Most Amazing Man Who Ever Lived: Cornelius Trilogy, Book 3 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 596min
The epic conclusion to the epic trilogy - and trilogies do not go out with a bigger bang than this one. Young school boy Norman is dead. His father fell out of the sky and flattened him. And as Norman did not engage in full time employment before he died he is rather miffed to have it thrust upon him in the afterlife - at The Universal Reincarnation Company. There are too many filing cabinets and much too much paperwork. The fault lies with God (a flawed genius, in the opinion of Hugo Rune). If He hadn't decided to close down Hell, then heaven would not have got so overcrowded and there would have been no need to build the extension. And until that extension is built the URC will just have to keep on recycling souls and the paperwork is going to grow and grow. And there is something very wrong going on at the URC, someone is pre-incarnating, being reborn again and again on their original birthdate with all the knowledge they had gained in their former lifetimes. Just imagine if you could do that. You'd probably end up as The Most Amazing Man Who Ever Lived. Or something very very wicked indeed. Cornelius and Tuppe are on the run from the law, some questions were asked regarding all that golden booty the epic pair liberated from the Forbidden Zones; questions that the tall boy was quite unable to answer. But at least they do have another epic automobile to drive around in and a couple of feisty young women with whom to drive about. They might have simply had a holiday, had they not met up with the ghost of a dead schoolboy and the occupant of a flying saucer and learned of Hugo Rune's final plan, the great big plan to end all great big plans. In this concluding part all the stops are pulled out and flung through the window. There has never been anything quite like this before and there probably won't be anything like it again. These three books are amongst Robert Rankin's all-time favourites and he makes absolutely no apologies for t ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Robert Rankin.
