All Seeing Eye , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 592min
The New York Times best-selling author of the Cal Leandros series delivers a bold new supernatural thriller where one man’s extraordinary abilities come with an equally phenomenal cost. Picking up a small, pink shoe from the grass forever changed young Jackson Lee’s life. Not only did its presence mean that his sister Tessa was dead - murdered and stuffed in the deep, black water of a narrow well - but the shoe itself told him so. Tessa’s death triggers an even more horrific family massacre that, combined with this new talent he neither wants nor can handle, throws Jack’s life into a tailspin. The years quickly take him from state homes to the streets to grifting in a seedy carnival, until he finally becomes the cynical All Seeing Eye, psychic-for-hire. At last, Jackson has left his troubled past behind and found a semblance of peace. That is, until the government blackmails him. After Jackson is forced to help the military contain the aftermath of a bizarre experiment gone violently wrong, everything he knows about himself will change just as suddenly as it did with his little sister’s shoe. And while change is constant...it’s never for the better. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jeff Hoyt. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/adbl/008265/bk_adbl_008265_sample.mp3.

Young Tessa is a diminutive girl, far too small for farm work and the object of ridicule by both her own family and the other children in their isolated Midwestern community. Her father seems to believe in nothing beyond his crops, certainly not education for his misfit daughter. When a mysterious, entrancing librarian comes to town, full of fabulous stories, earthy wisdom and potions for the lovelorn, she takes Tessa under her wing, teaching her to read and to believe in herself and a whole new magical world of possibilities opens up. But even as she blooms, Tessa’s father begins sexually abusing her. And her mentor carries a dark secret of her own that finally causes her to drown herself. Tessa runs off, following Mary’s footsteps, to join the circus as a trapeze artist, where she marries a loving man and finds a fulfilling life for herself amidst her new circus family. But she remains haunted by her past. And when a stranger from one of Mary’s fabulist tales shows up, Tessa risks everything to follow him to Rain Village, where she might finally discover her mentor’s tragic secret. A brilliantly evocative debut set in the early part of the 20th century, steeped in emotional turbulence and down-to-earth wisdom, where a young woman must reconcile the inner traumas from her past and learn to live in the present in order to avoid becoming prisoner to her future. Rain Village casts a fabulous spell, pulling us into a world of mystery and possibility where love, friendship and loyalty might either destroy or set one free. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Night Killers: A Crime Thriller Novel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 763min
Night Killers is an audio suspense thriller and police procedural mystery novel by award-winning and best-selling crime writer R. Barri Flowers. Trudy Clawson is a homicide detective with the police department in Night, Oregon. She is paired with FBI special agent Daryl Hatcher in pursuit of a diabolical serial killer with the moniker, “The Night Strangler”, who has raped and murdered several local women. When a second serial killer emerges targeting men who are shot to death, Clawson and Hatcher must do double duty in their relentless pursuit of the clever unsubs. Complicating matters is the strong chemistry and an ensuing romance between the two investigators, who have both been burned in past relationships and are leery of involvement. Dawn Whelan is a beautiful psychologist who is stunned when a patient confesses to being part of a gang rape and murder of a teenager 20 years ago named Tessa Katie Crowley. Unbeknownst to the tormented confessor, Tessa happens to be Dawn’s half-sister who went missing mysteriously, never to be heard from again. Now the truth about Tessa’s disappearance has finally come to light. Embittered, Dawn seeks the ultimate revenge against the four rapist-killers. Kenneth Emery has been addicted to killing for most of his life. He makes no apologies for the homicidal maniac he has fostered over the years, making him the monster he is today. As the Night Strangler, he relishes homing in on unsuspecting lovely ladies, having his way with them and finishing them off with his bare hands, while staying just beyond the reach of the inane authorities. The two cases turn out to be much more connected than anyone realizes, setting into motion a series of interrelations and heart-pounding events, leading to a dramatic conclusion that will forever turn the quaint Pacific Northwest town of Night upside down.

Blackout: The Dark Side of the Valleys , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 740min
Wales versus England. Ambition versus apathy. Technology versus Mother Nature. Tonight's the night: Ready for a fight? Beneath the blackout of oblivion caused by alcohol, drugs, and abuse of power, which has all but destroyed a seemingly irrelevant community, lays chronically unexpressed human love. Two generations after the coal mines closed down, a metaphorical blackout has seized control of a tiny community in the South Wales Valleys. Life is truly toxic for Tessa, a factory worker who makes clocks by day and drinks herself into oblivion by night. Trapped not only in her own situation but also by her abusive mother, Tessa has one ambition left: to become the human resources manager at the Tick-Tock factory. Meanwhile, the London-based owner of the factory sends his son to do the job, but Sam wants to be a famous musician instead. In a fit of despair, Tessa screams the Welsh National Anthem on top of the Brecon Beacons. There, she meets Sam, who recruits her as his "backing singer", convincing Tessa that, in the year 2000, there is only one ambition worth pursuing: fame. Amidst much abuse from her mother, Tessa quits the council estate and moves in with Sam, unaware of his true identity. Sam quickly finds himself the target of a culture in which there is no "Welcome in the Hillside", as the popular myth would have strangers believe. Driven by his obsession for fame and armed with state-of-the-art technology, Sam sets out to control Tessa’s every move while simultaneously maintaining a false identity for himself. Determined to supersede the condescending title of "backing singer", Tessa sets out to prove Sam wrong about absolutely everything. The idyllic rural setting becomes a stage for psychological warfare in which class, gender, and history clash to the point of catastrophe. When a blackout plunges the valley into darkness, Tessa and Sam are forced to face each other and their innermost selves. In the unfamili ungekürzt. Language: English.
