    London, 1727 - and Tom Hawkins is about to fall from his heaven of card games, brothels and coffee-houses to the hell of a debtors' prison. The Marshalsea is a savage world of its own, with simple rules: those with family or friends who can lend them a little money may survive in relative comfort. Those with none will starve in squalor and disease. And those who try to escape will suffer a gruesome fate at the hands of the gaol's rutheless governor and his cronies. The trouble is, Tom Hawkins has never been good at following rules - even simple ones. And the recent grisly murder of a debtor, Captain Roberts, has brought further terror to the gaol. While the Captain's beautiful widow cries for justice, the finger of suspicion points only one way: to the sly, enigmatic figure of Samuel Fleet. Some call Fleet a devil, a man to avoid at all costs. But Tom Hawkins is sharing his cell. Soon, Tom's choice is clear: get to the truth of the murder - or be the next to die. A twisting mystery, a dazzling evocation of early 18th Century London, THE DEVIL IN THE MARSHALSEA is a thrilling debut novel full of intrigue and suspense.

    The Money Mentor provides debtors and those with risky financial habits with both a first-aid kit and long-term therapy to achieve financial freedom. You don't have to be a 23-year-old dancer with no savings to end up with the excruciating debts young Iris is confronted with in this latest work by financial and legal advisor Tad Crawford. Every year, thousands of Americans of all ages and backgrounds overtax their bank accounts and credit cards and are left with the tricky task of pulling themselves out of their financial chaos. Rarely can they receive such high-quality financial and moral support as The Money Mentor provides - and certainly not in the guise of an entertaining, up-beat novel! As the author tells the story of the recovering debtor Iris, he walks his listeners through all the stages of money management, from the painful assessment of assets and debts to increasing one's income and starting to save. Choosing a sympathetic "girl-from-next-door" as protagonist, The Money Mentor offers people in financial trouble what they lack most of all: the ability to look at themselves from a healthy distance and realize that there is a way out of their trouble. ungekürzt.

    Hailed by George Bernard Shaw as Dicken's "masterpiece among masterpieces" for its social indictment and sense of humanity, Little Dorrit is both an examination of Victorian England and a surprising love story. This BBC Radio 4 dramatisation recreates the author's mid-19th Century London, in particular the East London area of Marshalsea. Drawing upon his own father's imprisonment in Marshalsea Debtors' Prison, Dickens placed the institution firmly in the heart of the novel when telling the story of Amy Dorrit. The youngest child of debtor William Dorrit, Amy is born in Marshalsea prison. She and her father are befriended by Arthur Clennam, whose mother employs "little Dorrit" as a seamstress. The fortunes of the Dorrits undergo an extreme change when William inherits a fortune, and the family moves to Italy. Back in England, Arthur Clennam finds himself the victim of a massive fraud and ends up in Marshalsea. There he is found by Little Dorrit, whose fortune has had no effect on her generosity and humility. Arthur realises that she loves him, but it is not until the Dorrit fortune is lost that the two of them can be united at last. Peopled with Dickens' usual host of memorable characters, the author's mix of satire and genuine sentiment has made this one of his best-loved works. Language: English. Narrator: Ian McKellen, Kenneth Cranham, Sophie Thompson, Margaret Tyzack, full cast. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/bbcw/002173/bk_bbcw_002173_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

    Georgia: From Debtor's Haven to Revolutionary Battleground is the 4th installment in the Adventures in Colonial America series, focusing on the Georgia colony. James Oglethorpe and the "Georgia Trustees" founded the Georgia colony as a haven for Britain's poor and unskilled, where they could live, learn a skill, and become productive members of society. However, the best of intentions often do not come to fruition, and the Georgia colony was no exception. Rather than a debtor's haven, Georgia became a military stronghold, involved in border wars, wars with Native Indians, other colonies, and France and Spain. Attempts by Oglethorpe and the Georgia Trustees to keep Georgia free from slavery were unsuccessful because of pressure from the middle class and British commercial interests. King George's War and the War of Jenkins' Ear provided Georgia's militia with military experience that would prove invaluable in later decades. During the American Revolution, two major sieges occurred, at Augusta and Savannah but the Continental Army and militia were able to push the British from Georgia ultimately resulting in the British surrender at Yorktown, Virginia. The men who put aside their social and political differences to resolve a hard-fought argument about independence, write a state constitution, and ratify the U.S. Constitution, will also be recognized. Finally, returning to the debtor's situation, the special topic will discuss the plight of the debtor in the 18th Century. Shays' Rebellion - the dangerous confrontation between western Massachusetts and the government that turned violent - will also be discussed because of the threat it posed to the young nation. ungekürzt.

    From the #1 New York Times best-selling author of The Big Short, Liar’s Poker and The Blind Side! The tsunami of cheap credit that rolled across the planet between 2002 and 2008 was more than a simple financial phenomenon: it was temptation, offering entire societies the chance to reveal aspects of their characters they could not normally afford to indulge. The Greeks wanted to turn their country into a pinata stuffed with cash and allow as many citizens as possible to take a whack at it. The Germans wanted to be even more German; the Irish wanted to stop being Irish. The trademark of Michael Lewis’s best sellers is to tell an important and complex story through characters so outsized and outrageously weird that you’d think they have to be invented. (You’d be wrong.) In Boomerang, we meet a brilliant monk who has figured out how to game Greek capitalism to save his failing monastery; a cod fisherman who, with three days’ training, becomes a currency trader for an Icelandic bank; and an Irish real estate developer so outraged by the collapse of his business that he drives across the country to attack the Irish Parliament with his earth-moving equipment. Lewis’s investigation of bubbles beyond our shores is so brilliantly, sadly hilarious that it leads the American listener to a comfortable complacency: Oh, those foolish foreigners. But when Lewis turns a merciless eye on California and Washington DC, we see that the narrative is a trap baited with humor, and we understand the reckoning that awaits the greatest and greediest of debtor nations. ungekürzt.

    In this hour, austerity budgets are all the rage, from State Capitols to the Halls of Congress. But austerity is a choice, and some question if it's a good one. Mark Blyth, a political economist at Brown University, is the author of a forthcoming book called Austerity – the History of a Dangerous Idea. He tells Jim Fleming that austerity's appeal is superficial. Around the country Governors of both parties are balancing their state budgets by making public sector employees pay more. Why? Next, that's the question Steve Paulson asks of Steven Malanga, a senior fellow at the Manhattan Institue and the autyhor of Shakedown: The Continuing Conspiracy Against the American Taxpayer.Then, the rich are getting rich and the gap between the rich and poor in America is getting wider. Fifty years ago the gap wasn't all that big, but in the 1970s it began to grown. There's a new documentary film about the origins of today's budget crisis called The Flaw. One of it's backers is economic historian Louis Hyman, also the author of a book called Debtor Nation. He tells Anne Strainchamps that inequality is the driving force behind the change in America's economic structure.After that, Diane Ravitch was Assistant Secretary of Education under George Bush Sr. And a strong proponent of charter schools and the No Child Left Behind program. She has a new book called The Death and Life of the Great American School System which reflects a change of mind. She tells Steve Paulson there's a political agenda behind all the recent school cuts. And finally, NY Times commentator David Brooks has a particular interest in education reform, which he's been following for decades. He tells Steve Paulson the old ways of schools need to change.
