Her Secret Submission: The Pleasures, Book One , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 284min, (USK 18)
Sex and emotions: a dangerous combination. Beware of what you wish for; it might just come true. Just a few moments earlier she had listened as Sir got dressed. She had never been blindfolded before. Each time he stopped touching her and walked around the room mysteriously she anticipated where she would feel him next. It might be something sweet and slow like the warmth of his breath near her hips. Or it may be something sharp and short; the sting of his palm against her behind. Before he left she'd listened to every move he made, picturing it all behind the soft satin of the blindfold. She'd heard the rustle of fabric. The zip of his jeans. His belt being buckled. The clip of his watch being fastened to his wrist. She'd listened as he gathered his belongings - saying not a single word to her - and strode heavily toward the door. "Say thank you, slave." "Thank you, Sir." Part two, Darkness Illuminated, is also available now. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Amanda Hendricks.

The Mighty Franks: A Memoir , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 665min
A story at once extremely strange and entirely familiar - about families, innocence, art and love. This hugely enjoyable, totally unforgettable memoir is a classic in the making. 'My aunt called our two families the Mighty Franks. But, she said, you and I, Lovey, are a thing apart. The two of us have pulled our wagons up to a secret campsite. We know how lucky we are. We're the most fortunate people in the world to have found each other, isn't it so?' Michael Frank's upbringing was unusual, to say the least. His aunt was his father's sister and his uncle his mother's brother. The two couples lived blocks apart in the hills of LA, with both grandmothers in an apartment together nearby. Most unusual of all was his aunt, 'Hankie': a beauty with violet eyelids and leaves fastened in her hair, a woman who thought that conformity was death, a Hollywood screenwriter spinning seductive fantasies. With no children of her own, Hankie took a particular shine to Michael, taking him on antiquing excursions, telling him about 'the very last drop of her innermost self', holding him in her orbit in unpredictable ways. This love complicated the delicate balance of the wider family and changed Michael's life forever. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Michael Frank.

The Devil's Highway , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 410min
Three journeys. Three thousand years. One destination. The Devil's Highway is a thrilling, epic and timely tale of love, loss, fanaticism, heroism and sacrifice. His fingers fastened about her stone. He brought it to the light and held it to his nose. There was lightning locked inside. He rolled the stone in his palm to give it the heat of his body. She had come to him, catching his eye where she lay among dull flints. She alone among the stones had spoken. An ancient British boy, discovering a terrorist plot, must choose between his brother and his tribe. In the 21st century, two men - one damaged by war, another by divorce - clash over their differing claims on the land, and a young girl is caught between them. In the distant future, a gang of feral children struggles to reach safety in a burning world. A Roman road, an Iron Age hill fort, a hand-carved flint, and a cycle of violence that must be broken. As gripping as it is dazzling, The Devil's Highway is a bold and intimate novel that spans centuries and challenges our dearest assumptions about what it means to be civilised. ungekürzt.

Paper Wings , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 621min
When a boat and its grisly cargo are found adrift off Fort Lauderdale, the investigation leads to more than "just" murder. In fact, the evidence points to a connection with an "accident" that downed Patriot Airlines Flight 63 in Bermuda with fatal consequences for all on board. As the accidents investigation chairman of the pilots' union, Captain Hart Lindy will find himself reluctantly drawn into the National Transportation Safety Board's inquiry only to discover that someone is going to great lengths that include murder and kidnapping to prevent the facts from being exposed. But who? And why? These are the questions Lindy will need to answer in order to get at the truth about what really happened to Flight 63. His task is complicated by his own personal demons, including the horrors of past airline crash investigations, as well as having to walk a diplomatic tightrope with an eccentric FBI special agent who is barely tolerating NTSB protocol, and an ambitious female NTSB investigator with eyes for Hart. Written by a veteran airline pilot and aviation analyst, Paper Wings will keep you up in the air and on the edge of your seat in first class. You'll want to keep your belts fastened while in flight! ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Stuart Gauffi. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/092389/bk_acx0_092389_sample.mp3.
