Pick-Up , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 409min
First published as an unheralded paperback original, Pick-Up is an authentic underground classic, an explosive bulletin from the urban underbelly of mid-1950s America. It was Charles Willeford’s second novel, after a rough and wandering earlier life that had taken him from Depression-era hobo camps and soup kitchens to wartime battlefields. The unblinking story of two lost and self-destructive drifters - a failed painter working as a counterman in a cheap diner and a woman in flight from domestic violence - trying to find a place for themselves in the back streets of San Francisco, Pick-Up is hardboiled writing at its nihilistic best: Willeford’s preferred title for the book was Until I Am Dead. Its bleak vision of life beyond the edge is haunted by rape, racism, alcoholism, suicide, and inescapable poverty, yet shot through with a tenderness and compassion sustained against all odds in a society offering few breaks to its outcasts and misfits. Pick-Up’s many twists and violent turns culminate in an ending that continues to surprise, confirming it as what critic Woody Haut has called “a razor-sharp narrative that rips open the genre”. ungekürzt.

Warped Justice , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 409min
The law will protect you. Until it doesn't. When Peter Garrison's failed defense of a client leads to a retribution plot against him, he's forced to confront a nemesis intent on destroying him. Jason Felding seeks payback after his teenage brother winds up sodomized and mentally scarred during an unfair incarceration. He targets the restaurant owner who put his sibling behind bars and the lawyer who couldn't get a simple underage drinking case dropped. Obsessed with justice, Jason murders the snitch and, in an elaborate ruse, frames Peter as the killer. Peter finds himself the prime suspect in a murder that rocks the small town of Quincy, Vermont, a cruel irony since he left his firm frustrated that guilty clients sometimes escape punishment, while innocent ones are convicted. With the help of a crafty private investigator, Peter vows to solve the crime and save his reputation. But as Peter closes in on the truth, both he and his new girlfriend may be next on Jason's hit list. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Pete Ferrand.

The Calling , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 409min
Danny Bishop is successful, happy, and the epitome of a good person. Young and energetic, there is no obstacle Danny believes he won't overcome. Life is his highway, one he designed. Everything is ideal until that road comes to a grinding halt and Danny finds out he has six weeks to live. A routine physical shows an irregular heartbeat, and after further testing, Danny is diagnosed with fibro-cystic tumors on the heart. There is no cure, no way to stop the degenerating progress; the tumors are growing at a rapid and crushing rate. Snatched from his picture perfect world into a painful reality, Danny refuses to give into the conception of death. He insists until the moment he takes his last breath, he is alive will not die... at least not conventionally. With limited time remaining, Danny must put his life in order. In doing so, he finds a mission; one considered impossible. However, to Danny, nothing is impossible. He sets out not to defeat the illness that threatens to conquer him, but rather defeat death by finding assurance that once he leaves the earth, he will be able to return. Using the help of a paranormal specialist, and drafting the aid of his best friend, Fr. Michael Craven, Danny begins a remarkable journey of living. He must face his convictions in faith, discover the truth of death before he passes, while acquiring the answers that he needs: Does an "other side" exist? Is there a truly a heaven? And if so, can Danny not only get there, but map his way back so he can watch over the wife and daughter he loves so much? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Gene Blake.

Short Straw , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 409min
Santa Fe lawyer Ed Eagle fell in love with the seductive Barbara Kennerly, and married her, against his better judgment. He should have listened to his intuition. Ed awakens on the morning after his 40th birthday to find that Barbara has vanished, and Ed's money from his business, his bank, and his brokerage accounts has been wired to the Cayman Islands. Barbara, it appears, drugged his birthday wine, neatly cleaned him out, and then fled to Mexico, from where she can't be extradited. And as if that weren't bad enough, when Ed arrives at work that morning, he discovers he's been assigned a new client who looks like nothing but trouble: Joe Big Bear, a part-time mechanic charged with a triple homicide. Ed hires two slightly shady investigators to search for his wife. But when they track Barbara down in Puerto Vallarta, they discover that Joe Big Bear may also be embroiled in Barbara's plot. Ed soon finds himself caught in a scheme much more far reaching and deadly than anyone could have expected. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Michael Kramer.

The Spire , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 409min
Dean Jocelin has a vision: that God has chosen him to erect a great spire on his cathedral. His mason anxiously advises against it, for the old cathedral was built without foundations.

Its shadow falls ever darker on the world below, and on Dean Jocelin in particular. From the author of Lord of the Flies, The Spire is a dark and powerful portrait of one man's will, and the folly that he creates. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Benedict Cumberbatch.
