McNally's Risk: An Archy McNally Novel, Hörbuch, Digital, 162min
When elegant, drop-dead gorgeous Theodosia Johnson steps ashore in Palm Beach, even the most jaded roving eyes stop to notice. Sophisticated champagne heir Chauncy Wilson Sachville-Hersfoth is equally enchanted by this mysterious beauty, but when he proposes marriage to her, Chauncy's mother isn't nearly so impressed. Archy McNally, the brilliant, blithe-spirited hero of McNally's Luck and McNally's Secret, returns to unravel the puzzle surrounding Miss Johnson. However, he too falls under her romantic spell...and bodies begin to appear like uninvited guests at a poolside dinner party. Shocking, swank, and more fun than a weekend in Palm Beach, McNally's Risk is full of sure-fire suspense that only Lawrence Sanders can deliver. Language: English. Narrator: Boyd Gaines.

Dr. J.B. Rhine, a psychologist at Duke University, was the world's outstanding authority and scientific pioneer in the fields of ESP and psychokinesis. The Reach of the Mind is Dr. Rhine's story of his findings, and the techniques he has developed, over many years, to scientifically measure non-physical factors of man's mind: telepathy, clairvoyance, and the force which the mind can physically produce upon inanimate objects. When the The Reach of the Mind was first released, it greatly impressed Carl Jung, who used it as a basis for his theories on synchronicity.

Second First Impressions
Distraction (n): Something that turns your attention away from something you want to concentrate on. See: Teddy Prescott. Ruthie Midona is twenty-four (going on ninety-four) and fully committed to her job at a luxury retirement village. Keeping herself busy caring for the eccentric residents means that Ruthie can safely ignore her own life - what little there is of it. Teddy Prescott is practically allergic to a hard day's work. When he rocks up as the retirement village's newest employee, Ruthie is less than impressed. The last thing she needs is a distraction as irritating (and handsome) as this selfish rich kid. Lucky for Ruthie, her favourite pair of mischievous residents need a new assistant to torture... so she hands over Teddy, ready for them to send him running. Except Teddy may be about to surprise her - not just by surviving the old women's antics, but by charming Ruthie so much, she starts to remember that there's more to life than work... Could Teddy be far more than simply an unwelcome distraction?- Shop: buecher
