Pashtun: A Military Thriller , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 641min
An adrenaline-filled war story that depicts the challenges of military special operations in a dangerous, boulder-filled landscape. The Company has a special secret operation planned for one of their top agents: the leaders of the Taliban and al-Qaeda terrorist groups are hiding out in Pashtun country, and they must be eliminated. The job falls to a man they have named Frank Morganan agent who stood out as a recruit at Quantico and whose skills resemble those of the legendary Vietnam assassin. The other soldiers claim Frank’s abilities as a sniper and a tracker border on the supernatural and are more than willing to complete this mission with him. Frank begins his adventure in Afghanistan with another Company-appointed soldier: An indestructible lyrical Irishman with a cutting sense of humor and a bottle of Jameson never far from hand. After the men rescue a burqa-clad young woman, they soon discover that the Company has not been honest with them and decide to take a second mate under their winga giant who quotes poetry and rap songs while he both enacts torture and lives through his own agonizing trials. They know now that oil, drugs, and greed have led to this quest; assassinating the terrorists is not their main objective. However, this still must be done. After becoming dangerously acquainted with the heroin business in the frontier provinces, Frank and his comrades continue their mission. But the lines have now blurred, and the assignment is more complicated than they expected. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Sean Runnette.

The Teeth of the Tiger, Hörbuch, Digital, 342min
In a nondescript office building in suburban Maryland, the firm Hendley Associates does a profitable business in stocks, bonds, and international currencies, but its true mission is quite different: to identify and locate terrorist threats, and then deal with them, in whatever manner necessary. Established with the knowledge of President John Patrick Ryan, "the Campus" is always on the lookout for promising new talent, its recruiters scattered throughout the armed forces and government agencies...and three men are about to cross its radar. The first is Dominic Caruso, a rookie FBI agent, barely a year out of Quantico, whose decisive actions resolve a particularly brutal kidnap/murder case. The second is Caruso's brother, Brian, a Marine captain just back from his first combat action in Afghanistan, and already a man to watch. And the third is their cousin...a young man named Jack Ryan, Jr. Jack was raised on intrigue. As his father moved through the ranks of the CIA and then into the White House, Jack received a life course in the world and the way it operates from agents, statesmen, analysts, Secret Service men, and black ops specialists such as John Clark and Ding Chavez. He wants to put it all to work now, but when he knocks on the front door of "the Campus," he finds that nothing has prepared him for what he is about to encounter. For it is indeed a different world out there, and in here. And it is about to become far more dangerous. Language: English. Narrator: Stephen Lang.

These Men: Men Series, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 243min, (USK 18)
Andrea Smith brings you this spin-off story from her G-Man Series. Things are about to heat up in DC! Taz has a younger sister and Paige Matthews has a lot to learn - about everything, including herself. At age 22, Paige finds herself driving across the country to start an internship with the FBI in Quantico, Virginia. You would think that Paige would be grateful to her older brother, Trace Matthews, a senior FBI agent who pulled strings on her behalf to get her into the program, right? Wrong. Paige is not overly enthused at the realization that her parents have pushed her from the nest and onto her older brother's plate for the time being. Always a loner, she quickly wears out her welcome with Trace and his wife Lindsey, due to her...need for random hook-ups, and finds herself crashing with her oldest brother Easton and his wife Darcy. Through Darcy, Paige is introduced to her sister-in-law's former roommate and bestie male friend, Eli Chambers, along with his sinfully handsome partner, Cain Maddox. They're looking for a roommate and Paige is looking to get out from underneath her family's watchful eye. This is no typical "Three's Company" story, though. Paige embarks on a journey of self-discovery that teaches her not only about giving, but about accepting love as well. She soon realizes that sometimes what you're searching for has been right there with you all along. This book is intended for mature audiences. Explicit M/M and M/F/M sex. ungekürzt.

One Bullet Away: The Making of Marine Officer, Hörbuch, Digital, 365min
A former captain in the Marines' First Recon Battalion, who fought in Afghanistan and Iraq, reveals how the Corps trains its elite and offers a point-blank account of twenty-first-century battle. If the Marines are "the few, the proud", Recon Marines are the fewest and the proudest. Only one Marine in a hundred qualifies for Recon, charged with working clandestinely, often behind enemy lines. Fick's training begins with a hellish summer at Quantico, after his junior year at Dartmouth, and advances to the pinnacle, Recon, four years later, on the eve of war with Iraq. Along the way, he learns to shoot a man a mile away, stays awake for 72 hours straight, endures interrogation and torture at the secretive SERE course, learns to swim with Navy SEALs, masters the Eleven Principles of Leadership, and much more. His vast skill set puts him in front of the front lines, leading 22 Marines into the deadliest conflict since Vietnam. He vows he will bring all his men home safely, and to do so he'll need more than his top-flight education. He'll need luck and an increasingly clear vision of the limitations of his superiors and the missions they assign him. Fick unveils the process that makes Marine officers such legendary leaders and shares his hard-won insights into the differences between the military ideals he learned and military practice, which can mock those ideals. One Bullet Away never shrinks from blunt truths, but it is an ultimately inspiring account of mastering the art of war. Language: English. Narrator: Nathaniel Fick.

Das Bundle besteht aus den Büchern #1 (BEVOR ER TÖTET) und #2 (BEVOR ER SIEHT) der Mackenzie White Mystery Reihe von Blake Pierce! Buch #1 und #2 werden in eine praktische Datei mit insgesamt über 100.000 Wörtern Lesematerial gepackt. In BEVOR ER TÖTET wird eine Frau in den Kornfeldern Nebraskas tot aufgefunden. Das Opfer eines gestörten Mörders hängt an einem Holzbalken. Die Polizei erkennt schnell, dass ein Serienkiller unterwegs ist - und dass die Mordserie gerade erst begonnen hat. Mackenzie White, jung, schlagfertig und schlauer als die alternden, chauvinistischen Männer ihrer Polizeiwache, wird mit der Aufklärung des Falles beauftragt. So ungern es die anderen Polizisten auch zugeben: Sie brauchen ihren jungen und brillanten Verstand, der schon bei vielen Fällen die entscheidenden Impulse gegeben hat. Doch auch für Mackenzie erweist sich dieser Fall als unlösbares Rätsel. Weder sie, noch die anderen Polizisten auf dem örtlichen Revier, haben je etwas Vergleichbares gesehen. In BEVOR ER SIEHT kämpft die, in der Ausbildung zur FBI Agentin steckende, Mackenzie White darum, sich in der FBI-Academy in Quantico einen Namen zu machen und sich gleichzeitig sowohl als Frau als auch als Neuankömmling aus Nebraska zu beweisen. In der Hoffnung, dass sie das Zeug dazu hat, eine FBI Agentin zu werden und ihr Leben im Mittleren Wesen für immer hinter sich zu lassen, will Mackenzie sich zurückhalten und ihre Vorgesetzten beeindrucken. Aber alles ändert sich, als die Leiche einer Frau in einer Mülltonne gefunden wird. Der Mord hat große Ähnlichkeit mit dem Fall des Vogelscheuchen-Mörders, durch den Mackenzie in Nebraska berühmt wurde ungekürzt. deutsch.

Sgt. Reckless: America's War Horse , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 454min
This is the complete and captivating account of how a would-be Korean racehorse became one of the greatest Marine Corps wartime heroes. Amid an inferno of explosives on a deadly minefield in the Korean War, a four-legged marine proved to be a heroic force of nature. She moved headstrong up and down steep, smoky terrain that no man could travail confidently. In a single day, this small Mongolian mare made fifty-one round-trips carrying nearly five tons of explosives to various gun sites. Sergeant Reckless was her name, and she was the horse renowned for carrying wounded soldiers off the battlefield and making solo trips across combat zones to deliver supplies. A widely celebrated national hero, Reckless was first featured in 1954 in the Saturday Evening Post and in 1997 when Life magazine published an edition lauding history's one hundred all-time heroes. Equine enthusiast Robin Hutton learned about Sergeant Reckless and spearheaded the effort to commission a monument at the National Museum of the Marine Corps in Triangle, Virginia, near the Marine Corps Base Quantico. In July of 2013, the statue was unveiled. A second monument is planned for Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton in California, where Reckless lived out her days and is buried. Hutton has now written a fascinating full biography of Sergeant Reckless, who earned two Purple Hearts for her heroic efforts, among other military decorations. Hutton has spoken with the marines who fought alongside Reckless and tells the complete and captivating tale of how a would-be Korean racehorse became one of the greatest Marine Corps wartime heroes. Sgt. Reckless brings the legend back to life more than half a century later. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Susan Boyce.

In BEVOR ER BEGEHRT (Ein Mackenzie White Krimi - Buch 3) schließt Mackenzie White die FBI Akademie in Quantico ab und findet sich in den Ermittlungen um einen Serienmörder wieder, bei denen jede Minute zählt. In einem abgelegenen Nationalpark in West Virginia tauchen tote Frauen auf, die während eines Camping-Urlaubs starben. Doch der Park ist weitläufig und die Opfer scheinen keinerlei Verbindung zueinander zu haben. Zur gleichen Zeit erhält Mackenzie einen Anruf aus Nebraska, in dem sie darum gebeten wird, nach Hause zurückzukehren. Nach vielen Jahren ist ein neuer Hinweis zu dem Mord an ihrem Vater aufgetaucht. Der Fall gehört nicht länger zu den ungeklärten Kriminalfällen und Mackenzie muss unbedingt dabei helfen, ihn zu lösen. Doch der Mörder des FBI-Falles nimmt immer mehr Fahrt auf und es bleibt keine Zeit für Ablenkungen, als immer mehr Frauen in dem psychologischen Katz-und-Maus Spiel verschwinden. Der Mörder ist diabolischer - und schlauer - als sich Mackenzie hätte vorstellen können. Während sie sich auf einen Weg begibt, den sie fürchtet - nämlich tief in ihre eigene Psyche - stolpert sie über eine doppelte Windung, die sogar sie nicht erwartet hatte. Als dunkler Psychothriller mit kaum auszuhaltender Spannung ist BEVOR ER BEGEHRT der zweite Teil einer fesselnden neuen Krimireihe - mit einem neuen, liebenswerten Charakter - der Sie bis spät in die Nacht fesseln wird. Buch #4 der Mackenzie White Krimireihe wird bald verfügbar sein.- Shop: buecher

Aber alles ändert sich, als die Leiche einer Frau in einer Mülltonne gefunden wird. Der Mord hat große Ähnlichkeit mit dem Fall des Vogelscheuchen-Mörders, durch den Mackenzie in Nebraska berühmt wurde. Im hektischen Kampf gegen die Zeit, um einen neuen Serienkiller zu stoppen, beschließt das FBI, sein Protokoll zu brechen und Mackenzie den Fall zu übertragen. Für Mackenzie ist es ihre Chance, das FBI zu beeindrucken, doch die Erwartungen waren noch nie so hoch. Nicht jeder will, dass sie den Fall leitet, und alles, was sie in Angriff nimmt, scheint schief zu gehen. Als der Druck am höchsten ist und der Mörder wieder zuschlägt, findet sich Mackenzie alleine in einem Heer erfahrener Agenten, und schon bald erkennt sie, dass sie bereits viel zu tief in der ganzen Sache verwickelt ist. Ihre gesamte Zukunft beim FBI steht auf dem Spiel. So hart und entschlossen Mackenzie auch ist, so brillant sie Mörder auch jagen kann, dieser neuer Fall entpuppt sich als unlösbares Rätsel, etwas, dem sie nicht gewachsen ist. Womöglich hat sie nicht einmal genug Zeit, es zu entschlüsseln, da ihr eigenes Leben über ihrem Kopf zusammenbricht.
