    Johnson's Island: A Prison for Confederate Officers: Civil War in the North Series , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 306min
    In 1861, Lt. Col. William Hoffman was appointed to the post of commissary general of prisoners and urged to find a suitable site for the construction of what was expected to be the Union's sole military prison. After inspecting four islands in Lake Erie, Hoffman came upon one in Sandusky Bay known as Johnson's Island. With a large amount of fallen timber, 40 acres of cleared land, and its proximity to Sandusky, Ohio, Johnson's Island seemed the ideal location for the Union's purpose. By the following spring, Johnson's Island Prison was born. Johnson's Island tells the story of the camp from its planning stages until the end of the war. Because the facility housed only officers, several literate diary keepers were on hand; author Roger Pickenpaugh draws on their accounts, along with prison records, to provide a fascinating depiction of day-to-day life. Hunger, boredom, harsh conditions, and few luxuries were all the prisoners knew until the end of the war, when at last parts of Johnson's Island were auctioned off, the post was ordered abandoned, and the island was mustered out of service. There has not been a book dedicated to Johnson's Island since 1965. Roger Pickenpaugh presents an eloquent and knowledgeable overview of a prison that played a tremendous role in the lives of countless soldiers. It is a book sure to interest Civil War buffs and scholars alike. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Michael E. Smith.

    Moon Mourning : Samantha Moon Origins, Book 2 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 484min
    Book two in the best-selling Samantha Moon Origins series!Coping with being attacked and left for dead isn't easy, but Samantha Moon is grateful that she survived - until she suspects she didn't. Vanishing from mirrors is only the first of a series of bizarre events that defies explanation, even to her trained investigative mind. A severe allergy to the sun, alertness at night, inability to eat food that isn't blood, and worst of all: She can't remember the last time she needed the bathroom. Of course, it's not all bad. Years have fallen off her face, her hair is perfect, her senses are honed, and (assuming she hasn't gone crazy) she can even see in the dark.It's all too much to process, so she does the only thing that makes any sense: tries to go back to work.A huge hat, shades, and half a bottle of high-test sunscreen later, she's back out inspecting properties with her partner Chad. Her first day, she suspects a HUD recipient of having undeclared income. Determined to cling to the career she worked so hard for, Sam traces the money back to small-time arms dealers selling big-time weapons. Everything seems to be routine until her sluggish reflexes get someone shot - and her husband suffers an emotional breakdown.Worse, she faces a more insidious and dangerous enemy than an apocalyptic militia group with military hardware...daytime. ungekürzt.

    Complete Liberty Inside Out: Honoring Yourself and Others for Optimal Enrichment , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 482min
    Do you sense that many vital things in the human world are not being considered, from parenting to politics? What if this missing knowledge can be acquired by using your mind with renewed focus, with both clarity and compassion? If you seek to live in freedom rather than in fear, then the practice of self-responsibility becomes a key safeguard that reveals all the arbitrary controls and impositions in our culture as simply relics of distrust and a fragmented inner world. We live in an unprecedented time of innovation, and we need philosophical and psychological shifts that accord with respect, understanding, empathy, connection, freedom, and prosperity. In this book you'll find ideas and perspectives about honoring the self you were, the self you are, and the self you can be. An inside-out view of complete liberty entails healing, integrating, and growing mentally, so that we can enrich our lives in the most helpful ways, personally and societally. Commonplace systems of domination and submission of course challenge our resolve - powerful cults of "authority" loom large, and sometimes they may overshadow our yearnings to be happy and free. The American dream has been constantly diminished by systems such as politics. They use coercion and punishment as mainstays. Yet, by compassionately inspecting the nature of childhood and parenting and reviewing their many effects on our lives, we can heal past wounds of trauma and implement win/win strategies to fulfill our needs. A wonderful world awaits. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Wes Bertrand. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/035877/bk_acx0_035877_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

    Red Sky at Morning , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 520min
    When Marine Lieutenant Michael Neill is ordered to the former Soviet Union, his assignment is to verify nuclear disarmament. But before his mission begins, an American reconnaissance plane is attacked by a Russian fighter, and a Navy pilot is killed. After the incident, Neill's mission changes. Willis Avery, the President's National Security Advisor, wants Lieutenant Neill to investigate Russian stealth technology, in addition to his original assignment. Photographic evidence - and the lack of radar images of the attacking aircraft - lead the American intelligence community to conclude that something new has been developed in the skies over Russia. Avery believes that Neill's friendship with a high-ranking officer in the Ukrainian Air Force is the key to establishing Red Sky at Morning - the existence of new aviation technology that could upset the balance of power between East and West. However, ultra-nationalist forces are at work. After arriving in Eastern Europe, Neill quickly uncovers a conspiracy of terrorism secretly instigated by the Kremlin. Government leaders in Moscow will stop at nothing to rebuild the Soviet Union as they try to force the breakaway republics back into the fold. Neill discovers that the terrorism has extended to the weapons facility he is charged with inspecting. Communist agents have gone far beyond their original orders, and it's a race against time as the Marine - with the help of a beautiful Ukrainian journalist - tries to stop them - and come up with a plan to bring down the corrupt government officials in Moscow. ungekürzt.

    It had been a busy day at work. And Chloe was horny as hell. There was something about the hustle of a chaotic day at the law firm that sent her libido soaring. Instead of being exhausted, she’d leave the office ready for loving. Today was no exception.  Her plan was to slip into her closet then drape her body with something scandalously hot. If her timing worked out, Rob would come home to find her in the bedroom, splayed across the mattress, ready for a good.... Today she was in the mood for black lace. She spent nearly an hour in the mirror, tugging her negligee into place, brushing her jet black hair over her shoulder and decorating her full lips with a striking shade of red.  Chloe liked what she saw, but a nagging question echoed through her head: Will this get my husband in the mood? Rob could be something of a slow start - sexually and otherwise.  Chloe was the fire in the relationship and Rob was the ice-cold water, laid-back, calm, impassive. She was the feisty attorney, always ready for a fight. He was the nerd, face always buried in a book or a newspaper. They laughed about their differences and they jokingly called themselves "the odd couple." But when those differences left Chloe cold and empty, it was no laughing matter. Inspecting herself more closely in the mirror.... Warning: This book contains sexual content and is intended for mature audiences. 18 and up only. ungekürzt. Language: English.
