    The Button War: A Tale of the Great War , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 282min
    Renowned, award-winning author Avi pens a stark, unflinching tale of ordinary boys living in wartime as tensions - and desperations - mount among them. Twelve-year-old Patryk knows little of the world beyond his tiny Polish village; the Russians have occupied the land for as long as anyone can remember, but otherwise life is unremarkable. Patryk and his friends entertain themselves by coming up with dares - some more harmful than others - until the Germans drop a bomb on the schoolhouse and the Great War comes crashing in. As control of the village falls from one nation to another, Jurek, the ringleader of these friends, devises the best dare yet: whichever boy steals the finest military button will be king. But as sneaking buttons from uniforms hanging to dry progresses to looting the bodies of dead soldiers - and as Jurek's obsession with being king escalates - Patryk begins to wonder whether their "button war" is still just a game. When devastation reaches their doorstep, the lines between the button war and the real war blur, especially for the increasingly callous Jurek. Master of historical fiction Avi delivers a fierce account of the boys of one war-torn village who are determined to prove themselves with a simple dare that spins disastrously out of control. ungekürzt.

    Coconut Cowboy , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 555min
    Channeling his inner Easy Rider, Serge Storms saddles up for his most epic, lethal, and hilarious road trip ever as he revvs off to find the lost American dream...starting in the Florida Panhandle. Obsessed with the iconic '60s classic Easy Rider, encyclopedic Floridaphile, lovable serial killer, and movie buff extraordinaire Serge A. Storms devises his wildest plan yet: finish the journey begun by his freewheeling heroes, Captain America and Billy, tragically cut short by some shotgun-wielding rednecks. Setting a course for the Florida Panhandle, Captain Serge - with Coleman literally riding shotgun - mounts his classic motorcycle and hits the highway in search of the real America: the apple-pie-eating, freedom-swilling moms and pops of Main Street USA. But the America he finds in the rural burgs dotting the neck of the peninsula is a little bit different...and a whole lot weirder than anything Peter Fonda and Dennis Hopper encountered. In a state where criminal politicians are more common than gators, Serge and Coleman discover one particular speed-trap locale so aggressively inept at corruption that investigators are baffled about where to start. Expect nothing less than madness, mayhem, ingenious homicides, and mind-altering pharmaceuticals when Serge and Coleman's path intersects with the Sunshine State's hyper-dysfunctional rusticity. Where's Jack Nicholson when you need him? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Oliver Wyman. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/harp/004871/bk_harp_004871_sample.mp3.

When parolees are released in their area, they will monitor the criminals' known places of business to catch them in the act or deter them from doing business. Their very first effort nets them an arrest and everything, both good and bad, snowballs from that point. Elle has a smart attitude bigger than her six-foot-plus partner. Connor brings his experience as a soldier to the streets. Julie, the psychologist, finds herself more involved with this dynamic duo than she ever dreamed possible.
