    House of Lies: How Management Consultants Steal Your Watch and Then Tell You the Time , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 509min
    Once upon a time, Corporate America paid certain people huge fees to tell organizations what they were doing wrong. These men and women really knew next to nothing. They trashed businesses, destroyed careers, and wasted time and money. They called themselves Management Consultants. I know them well. I was one of them. Welcome to the House of Lies. When Martin Kihn joined a powerhouse New York consulting firm, he thought his job was to help organizations. In reality, the consultants spent precious work hours prowling for new clients, and offered little or no useful information. From power breakfasts with mind games to the screaming indignity of "Feedback Camp" in New Jersey, House of Lies reveals the truth about a "profession" that could threaten your job, your career, and your life... and even throws you some lifelines should the suits start circling your company.

    The mighty chieftan Azlato, now trapped in the body of the gorgeous witch queen, has been slowly broken down into his new role as a lowly pleasure maiden - so much so that he's beginning to enjoy his new life with the men in the pleasure tents, even as it disgusts him!   But now that he knows his allies were plotting to have him killed, he needs to find a way to stop pleasuring the men and rescue the woman who still wears his old body before she's slain. If he can't, Azlato will be forced to spend the rest of his days working on his back and his knees...   His only hope is to overload the enchantment that keeps him in this body, even if that means spending a day in the stocks and letting every man in camp have their way with him (at the same time). Can he put up with the indignity long enough to break the spell and rescue himself from a fate worse than death? Find out, in Dark Desires... ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Sophia Chambers.

    The Beloveds , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 512min
    An exploration of domestic derangement, as sinister as Daphne Du Maurier's classic Rebecca, that plumbs the depths of sibling rivalry with wit and menace. Oh, to be a Beloved - one of those lucky people for whom nothing ever goes wrong. Everything falls into their laps without effort: happiness, beauty, good fortune, allure. Betty Stash is not a Beloved - but her little sister, the delightful Gloria, is. She's the one with the golden curls and sunny disposition and captivating smile, the one whose best friend used to be Betty's, the one whose husband should have been Betty's. And then, to everyone's surprise, Gloria inherits the family manse - a vast, gorgeous pile of ancient stone, imposing timbers, and lush gardens - that was never meant to be hers. Losing what Betty considers her rightful inheritance is the final indignity. As she single-mindedly pursues her plan to see the estate returned to her in all its glory, her determined and increasingly unhinged behavior - aided by poisonous mushrooms, talking walls, and a phantom dog - escalates to the point of no return. The Beloveds will have you wondering if there's a length to which an envious sister won't go. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Fiona Hardingham.

    The Boys of East Precinct: A True Story of Police Harassment and Cover-Up , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 158min
    Freddie Gray, Samuel Debose, Eric Garner, Michael Brown, and the list goes on and on. Americans have become apathetic to unarmed citizens being approached (under questionable circumstances) by out-of-control bullies carrying a badge. The new normal in many police departments is to shoot first and ask questions later. And the ultimate indignity is that the police know (in some cases) they can get away with it. On December 20, 2011, a deranged deputy working for the King County Sheriff's Department of Washington state picked the wrong man to harass. The result was a seven-month long internal investigation and 30 pages of paperwork for an altercation that only lasted a few minutes, even though there was no crime committed. Sometimes, the little guy wins. Not with weapons or guns, but with facts and a fundamental understanding of the law. The term "a reasonable suspicion that there is a crime being committed or about to be committed" is a very slippery slope in law enforcement. It allows any police officer, whether they're inexperienced or irrational or just a glorified bully hiding behind the cloak of authority, to stop innocent citizens and detain them. The Boys of East Precinct is a true story of police harassment and cover-up. It also empowers innocent citizens to protect themselves against out-of-control police officers whose only agenda is to use physical and sometimes deadly force stemming from emotion and anger. ungekürzt.

    Jerry Lee Lewis: His Own Story , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 956min
    The greatest Southern storyteller of our time, New York Times best-selling author Rick Bragg, tracks down the greatest rock and roller of all time, Jerry Lee Lewis - and gets his own story, from the source, for the very first time. A monumental figure on the American landscape, Jerry Lee Lewis spent his childhood raising hell in Ferriday, Louisiana, and Natchez, Mississippi; galvanized the world with hit records like "Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On" and "Great Balls of Fire", that gave rock and roll its devil’s edge; caused riots and boycotts with his incendiary performances; nearly scuttled his career by marrying his 13-year-old second cousin - his third wife of seven; ran a decades-long marathon of drugs, drinking, and women; nearly met his maker, twice; suffered the deaths of two sons and two wives, and the indignity of an IRS raid that left him with nothing but the broken-down piano he started with; performed with everyone from Elvis Presley to Keith Richards to Bruce Springsteen to Kid Rock - and survived it all to be hailed as "one of the most creative and important figures in American popular culture and a paradigm of the Southern experience." Jerry Lee Lewis: His Own Story is the Killer’s life as he lived it, and as he shared it over two years with our greatest bard of Southern life: Rick Bragg. Rich with Lewis' own words, framed by Bragg’s richly atmospheric narrative, this is the last great untold rock-and-roll story, come to life on the page. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Vietnam Again , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 516min
    A torrent of books about the Vietnam War has flooded the market, most of them documenting battles, strategy, and personal journals of life during the war. There are far fewer books about soldiers who have returned to that country of conflict four decades later. Most men and women who served during the Vietnam War were only too glad to leave and never look back. I was one of those people until last year when an unexpected phone call had me considering something I never thought I would do...return to Vietnam. The two weeks I spent touring Vietnam made me re-evaluate my life and everything I thought I knew about that country and its people. I found answers to questions I had long buried in my mind and found myself absolved of the indignity I had carried all of those years. A vision into America that I had always suspected, but had never seen opened up before me. The book, Vietnam Again, follows our flight into Hanoi and the two-week journey south to Ho Chi Minh City, with stops at Dong Hoi, Quang Tri, Hue, Qui Nhon, Nha Trang, and Phan Thiet. Our tour guide, an NVA veteran, became a valued friend and showed us how Vietnam has evolved and prospered since the war. I found a gracious people who welcomed us as friends and shared with us the beauty and hospitality of their country. This book explains the maturing of Vietnam and visits the ancient cities with the striking architecture and craftsmanship that helps define the Vietnamese people. ungekürzt. Language: English.
