    Sons of Sparta: Chief Inspector Andreas Kaldis Mystery, Book 6 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 439min
    Did the warriors of ancient Sparta simply vanish without a trace along with their city, or did they find sanctuary in the Mani region at the tip of the mountainous Peloponnese? That stark, unforgiving region's roots today run deep with a history of pirates, highwaymen, and neighbors ferociously repelling any foreigner foolishly bent on occupying this part of Greece. Less well recorded are the Mani's families' strict code of honor and their history of endless vendettas with neighbors and with their own relatives. No wonder their farms look like fortresses. When Special Crimes Division Detective Yiannis Kouros is summoned from Athens to the Mani by his uncle, Kouros fears his loyalty to his boss, Chief Inspector Andreas Kaldis, is about be to be tested by family pressure on him to act in some new vendetta, for this uncle once headed the Mani's most significant criminal enterprise. Instead, Kouros learns the family is about to become rich through the sale of its property - until the uncle is killed and so too the deal. Acting swiftly to head off a new cycle of violence, Kouros satisfactorily solves the murder - or so it seems. Back in Athens, Kaldis' probe into deeply entrenched government corruption leads straight back to the Mani. Both detectives now confront a host of unexpected twists, unanticipated players, unanswered questions - and people yet to die. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Stefan Rudnicki.

    The Search for the Man in the Iron Mask: A Historical Detective Story , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 451min
    The Search for the Man in the Iron Mask triumphantly solves an enduring puzzle that has stumped historians for centuries and seduced novelists and filmmakers to this day. Who was the man who was rumored to have been kept in prison and treated royally during much of the reign of Louis XIV while being forced to wear an iron mask? Could he possibly have been the twin brother of the Sun King? Like every other serious scholar, intrepid historian Paul Sonnino discounts this theory, instead taking the listener along on his adventures to uncover the truth behind this ancient enigma. Exploring the hidden, squalid side of the lavish court of France, the author uncovers the full spectrum of French society, from humble servants to wealthy merchants to kings and queens. All had self-interested reasons to hold their secrets close until one humble valet named Eustache Dauger was arrested and jailed for decades, simply because he knew too much and opened his mouth at the wrong time. Presenting his dramatic solution to the mystery, Sonnino convincingly shows that no one will be able to tell the story of the man in the iron mask without taking into account the staggering array of evidence he has uncovered over the course of decades. The book is published by Rowman & Littlefield. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Michael C. Jones. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/086984/bk_acx0_086984_sample.mp3.

    Secret Prey: Lucas Davenport, Book 9 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 735min
    The company chairman lay on the cold ground of the woods, his eyes unseeing, his orange hunting jacket punctured by a rifle bullet at close range. Around him stood the four executives with whom he had been hunting, each with his or her own complicated agenda, each with a reason not to be sorrowful about the man's death. If he read it in a book, Lucas Davenport thought, it would seem like one of those classic murder mysteries, the kind where the detective gathers everyone together at the end and solves the case with a little speech. But it wasn't going to be that easy, he knew. There were currents running through this group, hints and whispers of something much greater than the murder of a single man. He had felt this way not long before, sensed the curling of an indefinable evil, and not only had it nearly gotten him killed, it had lost him his fiancee, who'd never been able to recover from the violence of the encounter. Sometime soon, unless he could stop it, there would be another death, and then still another, and Davenport couldn't help but wonder if maybe this time, the final death might not be his own.... John Sandford has written extraordinary thrillers before, but nothing to top the startling twists and unrelenting suspense of Secret Prey. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Richard Ferrone.

    Scarpete Stories , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 381min
    Scarpete Stories is set in southern Alabama. It is the tale of A. J. Waters, a man whose life has spiraled so out of control and disconnected that he creates a fictional detective to first moderate, then inhabit, and finally subsume that life. The detective, Scarpete, is left to try and find some explanation for the necessity of his existence. With nothing but a bundle of scrawled pages on a series of legal pads, Scarpete investigates the life and death of the author who created him. Within those pages, he vacillates between narrator to muse to antagonist to protagonist. He coaxes A.J. to murder a recalcitrant Mobile editor, searches for an alleged child predator, solves the pitiful "crime" of a sign-altering prankster in the tony eastern shore city of Fairhope, and evokes the confession of a Virginia fugitive hiding out as a Mobile late night radio talk show host. The dissolution of A.J's marriage, family, and life is revealed piece by piece, first as an exercise in therapeutic counseling suggested by his ex. Then, as the exercise frustrates both doctor and patient, he retreats to the only place he knows where he might ask the necessary questions, might even find necessary answers, turning himself into a third-person character in the story, while the lines between reality and fiction, between author and character collide, intersect, then dissolve. ungekürzt.
