    The Intriguing Life of Ximena Godoy , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 524min
    Revenge and murder define Ximena Godoy's story. Her lifetime spans the first half of the 20th century, a transformative time of revolution, economic depression, uprooting, and migration. During that time she witnesses and participates in an era of revolution, bootlegging, dance halls, as well as evolving rules that determine women's lives in both Mexico and America. Never a traditional or conventional woman, Ximena Godoy shatters rules that govern her Mexican heritage and even those of a wider world. Her story portrays an ever-changing woman who morphs from sheltered child into a complex, deeply flawed human being, passionate and independent, quick to love unconditionally but just as ready to cling obsessively to revenge, a flaw that leads her into the murky world of murder and criminal justice. ungekürzt.

    Mango Muffin Murder: Jamaica Series, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 116min
    Petrona McGibbon knew that completely uprooting her life and moving to the Caribbean island of Jamaica to open a bed and breakfast/bakery was going to be challenging. What she didn't expect was that her delectable creations would become the center of a murder investigation. What should have been an open and shut case takes some unexpected twists. As a seasoned senior superintendent of police, Dean Anderson finds himself having to turn to the likes of Petrona's crazy cousin Maria, and her equally madcap friend Andrene for assistance. A mysterious break-in at the bakery heats up the investigation as the killer becomes even more daring in his bid to frame the bakery.

    An Unrestored Woman , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 419min
    In her mesmerizing debut, Shobha Rao recounts the untold human costs of one of the largest migrations in history. It's 1947. The Indian subcontinent is partitioned into two separate countries, India and Pakistan. And with one decree, countless lives are changed forever. An Unrestored Woman explores the fault lines in this mass displacement of humanity: A new mother is trapped on the wrong side of the border; a soldier finds the love of his life but is powerless to act on it; an ambitious servant seduces both master and mistress; a young prostitute quietly, inexorably plots revenge on the madam who holds her hostage. Caught in a world of shifting borders, Rao's characters have reached their tipping points. In paired stories that hail from India and Pakistan to the United States, Italy, and England, we witness the ramifications of the violent uprooting of families, the price they pay over generations, and the uncanny relevance these stories have in our world today. ungekürzt.

    A Dark Road , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 402min
    Not every friendship is as harmless as it seems... Loner James McKay wants nothing to do with Hadley Grayson. After all, the last thing a drug dealer needs is the pretty, new girl trying to be friends. Walking distractions like her lead to trouble, the kind that can get you 10 to 15 behind bars. Likewise, fencing champion Hadley Grayson isn't thrilled about her family uprooting her during her senior year of high school. At least there's James McKay, the quiet, mad scientist who is as adorable as he is mysterious. Though McKay may reject the idea of friendship, he gets one whether he wants it or not. But once the lies are told and the rumors spread, the dangers of meth making and dealing are impossible to avoid. Between secrets and overdosing classmates, McKay and Hadley will learn that loneliness can be a two-way street, changing both of their lives forever. ungekürzt. Language: English.
