    A Home of Her Own , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 563min
    When Lucky Caldwell was 10, her mother, Red - the best-known hooker in Dundee, Idaho - married Morris Caldwell, a wealthy and much older man. It didn't last, of course, but Morris' kindness was the highlight of Lucky's life. Mike Hill, Morris' grandson, doesn't feel too well disposed toward Red or her kids. He believes they alienated Morris from his family. Even Morris' Victorian mansion, on the property next to the Hill ranch, wasn't inherited by one of his grandchildren. Instead the house went to Lucky, who left it sitting empty for years. Now that Red and Morris are both dead, Lucky has finally come back to Dundee. She plans to restore the derelict place - and to look for her real father, who has to be one of three men named in her mother's diary. That means Mike has a new neighbor. One he doesn't want to like.... ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Rachel Fulginiti. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/harp/004714/bk_harp_004714_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

    Issues in Public Policy and Administration in Malaysia: An Institutional Analysis
    This book argues that there is nothing inherently stable, persistent or enduring about institutions. By examining the various issues facing the Malaysian bureaucracy and adopting an institutional analysis, this book brings the point that institutions are disposed to change because they are fraught with tension due to the quality of institutions. Using various examples, it explains that such tension and change dynamics can come from institutional resources, the manner in which resources are distributed to different actors, the varying power configurations among institutional actors and the larger political, economic and social environment that institutions operate in. Accordingly, in examining the various concerns of the Malaysian bureaucracy, this book highlights the typologies of institutional change and the inherent tension over resources that exist among actors that makes reform attempts, at times, potentially problematic but not impossible. New concerns in public policy and governance that are yet to be discussed widely in the Malaysian public administration literature are raised, including issues on collaborative governance, public service motivation and representative bureaucracy.

    George Michael's Faith (eBook, PDF)
    On Saturday, June 28, 1986, George Michael picked up his tasseled leather jacket, walked out of London's Wembley Stadium and cheerfully tore up five years of glittering pop history. He'd just disposed of Wham!, the band he'd formed with school friend Andrew Ridgeley when they were teenagers, and now, at 23, he knew he was all grown up. He just needed to convince everyone else. Faith is what happens when you've outstripped your dreams, your peers, your friends and your fans, and no one's caught up yet. It's about pouring all of that confusion, insecurity and sizzling ambition into music that comes out confused, insecure and ambitious - and then selling 25 million copies of it. George Michael was always preparing for this and, in the process, he set a template for all disaffected singers making that move. This book examines that model and the themes that went into Faith - from engaging in politics to crossing over to a Black audience and writing classic pop songs to endure - and speaks to the surviving key players to tell the story of how it was made.

    The Berserker Throne , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 483min
    The Empress of the Eight Worlds has been assassinated during the Holiday of Life festivities on the planet Salutai. Prince Harivarman, exiled and a virtual prisoner on the Templar Radiant, suspects that he will be the next victim.

Anne Blenheim, the fortress' clear-eyed, fair Commander is favorably disposed toward the Prince, but her first responsibility is to the Templar High Command. Beatrix, the Prince's dark, iron-nerved yet seemingly demure wife, has already left him once. And Chen Shizuoka, the Templar recruit who staged a demonstration on Harivarman's behalf during the disastrous celebration on Salutai, is being stalked by planetary security forces.When Prince Harivarman discovers an operable Berserker: his first instinct is to turn it in. But then he finds an ancient code that will either allow him to control the dreaded machine or lead him (and everyone else on the Templar Radiant) to certain death. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Beginner's Guide to Debt Management: Erase Your Debt and Take the Clamp Off Your Financial Life , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 26min
    Free yourself from the burden of debt! Here's a snippet of just one of the ways to rid yourself of your debt: This is a basic rule with banks, pension funds, and insurance firms. The aim is to have assets available when they will be needed. So one should not finance a long-term asset, for instance a house, with a short-term loan from a credit card. One should not use the value of his or her home to pay the bill. Borrowing long-term for a short-term also calls for trouble. For example, if you take a 10-year loan for a secondhand car, you'll still be paying for the loan long after the car has been disposed. Also included are topics on: Strategies of managing debt How to prioritize your debt payments What you need to know before borrowing money Different types of debt Much, much more! ungekürzt.

    The Apocalypse Codex: The Laundry Files, Book 4 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 705min
    Bob Howard used to fix computers for the Laundry - the branch of the British Secret Service that deals with otherworldly threats - but those days are over. He's not only been promoted to active service but actually survived missions against cultists, enemy spies and tentacled horrors from other dimensions. Willingly or not, he's on his way up in this dangerous organisation.  When a televangelist with connections to 10 Downing Street seems able to work miracles, the Laundry takes an interest. But an agency that answers to the Prime Minister can't spy on him themselves, and Bob's shadowy superiors come up with a compromise - they hire 'freelancers', with Bob in charge.  British citizens who discover the occult are either forcibly recruited by the Laundry or disposed of, and Bob's never heard of freelancers before. Officially they don't exist. Anyone who's big and bad enough to remain independent is going to be hard to handle, and Bob's not too sure that the one-week 'people management' course he was sent on in Milton Keynes is going to be enough....  ungekürzt.
