    Mass Murder and Romance , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 203min
    Mass murder and romance. Not a typical combination. John Smith shrugs off his old grey life one day and decides to plan and carry out the largest act of mass murder by one single individual in the history of man. He devises a plan that will take a year to accomplish by himself. On the day of the annual gay pride parade, he will watch from the distance as San Francisco is systematically destroyed by his own hand, culminating in a mile-long inferno along the route of the annual gay pride parade. He's well on his way to success when unexpected people enter his life, and it suddenly is no longer a question of if he can do it but whether he can stop it once the gears have been set in motion. ungekürzt.

    A thrilling saga of man vs. the wild, and a savage game that quickly becomes a deadly nightmare. To salvage his broken-down ranch, near-bankrupt Ben Pearce devises a hunting scheme, the consequences of which he cannot begin to imagine. The prey: three rare, fierce cats - a leopard and two mountain lions caught in the wild. The predators: an arrogant Texas millionaire, his beautiful but disturbed wife, and their near-psychopathic teenage son. Each of them will hunt one of the animals with only Ben as guide: first the wife, then the son, and finally the Texan. In a closed New Mexico canyon, a hunt conceived in evil will run its deadly course when the hunters discover that the leopard is stalking them - an unexpected twist in this terrifying game that will forever change their lives. ungekürzt.

    Pierre; or, the Ambiguities , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1186min
    Pierre Glendinning is the 19-year-old heir to the manor at Saddle Meadows in upstate New York. Engaged to the blonde Lucy Tartan in a match approved by his domineering mother, Pierre encounters the dark and mysterious Isabel Banford, who claims to be his half sister, the illegitimate and orphaned child of his father and a European refugee. Driven by his magnetic attraction to Isabel, Pierre devises a remarkable scheme to preserve his father's name, spare his mother's grief, and give Isabel her proper share of the estate. First published in 1852, Pierre; or the Ambiguities was condemned by critics of the time: "a dead failure", "this crazy rigmarole", and "a literary mare's nest". Latter-day critics, however, have recognized in the story of Melville's idealistic young hero a corrosive satire of the sentimental Gothic novel and a revolutionary foray into modernist literary techniques. ungekürzt.

    Hazard: A game of Chance and Luck, made riskier when Fate is rolling the dice.  For Aristide Delacroix, the first throw summons shades from his past.

    Don't Eat Me
    Between getting into a tangle with a corrupt local judge, and discovering a disturbing black-market business, Dr. Siri and Inspector Phosy have their hands full in the thirteenth installment of Colin Cotterill's quirky, critically acclaimed series. Dr. Siri Paiboun, the 75-year-old ex-national coroner of Laos, may have more experience dissecting bodies than making art, but now that he's managed to smuggle a fancy movie camera into the country, he devises a plan to shoot a Lao adaptation of War and Peace with his friend Civilai. The only problem? The Ministry of Culture must approve the script before they can get rolling. That, and they can't figure out how to turn on the camera. Meanwhile, the skeleton of a woman has appeared under the Anusawari Arch in the middle of the night. Siri puts his directorial debut on hold and assists his friend Phosy, the newly promoted Senior Police Inspector, with the ensuing investigation. Though the death of the unknown woman seems to be recent, the flesh on her corpse has been picked off in places as if something-or someone-has been gnawing on the bones. The plot Siri and his friends uncover involves much more than a single set of skeletal remains.
