James Patterson & Richard DiLallo Alex Cross’s Trial Narrated by Dylan Baker, featuring Shawn Andrews As a lawyer in Washington, DC, early in the 1900s, Ben Corbett represents the toughest cases. fighting against oppression and racism, he risks his family and his life in the process. When President roosevelt asks Ben to return to his hometown to investigate rumors of the resurgence of the Ku Klux Klan there, he cannot refuse. upon arriving in Eudora, mississippi, Ben enlists the help of the wise Abraham Cross and his beautiful daughter, moody, to introduce him to the hidden side of the idyllic Southern town. Lynchings have become commonplace, and residents of the town’s black quarter live in constant fear. Ben aims to break the reign of terror—but the truth of who is really behind it could break his heart. Written in the fearless voice of Detective Alex Cross, Alex Cross’s Trial is a gripping story of murder, love, and, above all, bravery. AuThoRS

James Patterson & martin Dugard The murder of King Tut The Plot to Kill the Child King Narrated by Joe Barrett

Since 1922, when howard Carter discovered tut’s 3,000-year-old tomb, most Egyptologists have presumed that the young king died of disease, or perhaps an accident, such as a chariot fall. But what if his fate was actually much more sinister? Now, in The Murder of King Tut, James Patterson and martin Dugard chronicle their epic quest to find out what happened to the boy-king. they comb through the evidence—x-rays, Carter’s files, forensic clues—and scavenge for overlooked data to piece together the details of his life and death. the result is a true crime tale of intrigue, betrayal, and usurpation that presents a compelling case that King tut’s death was anything but natural. AuThoRS

The Last Song

Narrated by Pepper Binkley Seventeen-year-old Veronica “ronnie” miller’s life was turned upside-down when her parents divorced and her father moved from New York City to Wilmington, North Carolina. three years later, she remains angry and alienated from her parents, especially her father—until her mother decides it would be in everyone’s best interest if she spent the summer in Wilmington with him. ronnie’s father, a former concert pianist and teacher, is living a quiet life in the beach town, immersed in creating a work of art that will become the centerpiece of a local church. the tale that unfolds is an unforgettable story that demonstrates, as only a Nicholas Sparks novel can, the many ways that love can break our hearts...and heal them. “A Walk To Remember touches listeners...Author and first-time reader Nicholas Sparks brings to his work an authentic resonance... his tone is even and almost effortless, particularly at the moments in the story when it’s impossible not to get caught up in the action.” —AudioFile on A Walk to Remember

James Swain The night monster Narrated by Peter Jay Fernandez the past has come back to haunt P.I. Jack Carpenter, former head of the Broward County missing Persons unit. As a young cop he failed to stop the kidnapping of a college coed by a shockingly large assailant. the mystery of the missing girl still lurks in his darkest dreams. But after eighteen years, it’s about to become terrifying reality once more. When Carpenter’s daughter, Jessie, asks him to bird-dog a camera-toting creep who’s been shadowing her college basketball team, his pursuit of the video voyeur leads him smack into another run-in with his old hulking nemesis, who abducts one of Jessie’s teammates.

hannelore Brenner The Girls of Room 28

friendship, hope, and Survival in Theresienstadt Narrated by Suzanne Toren from 1942 to 1944, twelve thousand children passed through the theresienstadt internment camp on their way to Auschwitz. Only a few hundred of them survived the war. In The Girls of Room 28, ten of these children—mothers and grandmothers today in their seventies—tell us how they did it. In the mid-1990s, German journalist hannelore Brenner met ten of these child survivors–women in their late seventies today, who reunite every year at a resort in the Czech republic. Weaving these interviews with excerpts from diaries that were kept secretly during the war and samples of the art, music, and poetry created at theresienstadt, Brenner gives us an unprecedented picture of daily life there, and of the extraordinary strength, sacrifice, and indomitable will that combined to make survival possible.

Colin Beavan No Impact Man

The Adventures of a Guilty Liberal Who Attempts to Save the Planet Narrated by the Author A guilty liberal finally snaps, swears off plastic, goes organic, becomes a bicycle nut, turns off his power, and generally becomes a tree-hugging lunatic who tries to save the polar bears and the rest of the planet from environmental catastrophe while dragging his baby daughter and Prada-wearing, four Seasons-loving wife along for the ride. And that’s just the beginning. Bill mcKibben meets Bill Bryson in this seriously engaging look at one armchair liberal’s decision to put his money where his mouth is and go off the grid for one year—while still living in new York City—and see if it’s possible to make no net impact on the environment.

With his #1 bestsellers, The Tipping Point, Blink and Outliers, he has reached millions of readers. And now the very best and most famous of his New Yorker pieces are collected in a brilliant and provocative anthology. Among the pieces: his investigation into why there are so many different kinds of mustard but only one kind of ketchup; a look at how we hire when we can’t tell who’s right for the job; an examination of machine built to predict hit movies; a look at why employers love personality tests; a dissection of Ivy League admissions and who gets in; the saga of the quest to invent the perfect cookie; and a look at hair dye and the hidden history of postwar America.

Barbara Ehrenreich Bright-Sided

How Positive Thinking Undermines America Narrated by Kate Reading Americans are a “positive” people—cheerful, optimistic, and upbeat: this is our reputation as well as our self-image. But more than a temperament, being positive, we are told, is the key to success and prosperity. Barbara Ehrenreich traces the strange career of our sunny outlook from its origins as a marginal nineteenth-century healing technique to its enshrinement as a dominant, almost mandatory, cultural attitude. With the mythbusting powers for which she is acclaimed, Ehrenreich exposes the downside of America’s penchant for positive thinking.

Lou manfredo Rizzo’s War Narrated by Bobby Cannevale

SimuLTAneouS ReLeASe

“there’s no wrong, there’s no right, there just is.” In Lou manfredo’s powerful debut novel, this is the refrain of Joe rizzo, a decades-long veteran of the NYPD, as he passes on his knowledge to his ambitious new partner, mike mcQueen, over a year of riding together as detectives in the 62nd Precinct in Bensonhurst, Brooklyn. they work on several cases, some big, some small, but the lesson is always the same. Whether it’s a simple robbery or an attempted assault, rizzo’s saying always seems to bear out. And when they are given the delicate task of finding the runaway daughter of a city councilman who may or may not be more interested in something incriminating his daughter has taken with her than in her safety, the situation is much more complex. By the end of rizzo and mcQueen’s year together, however, mcQueen is not surprised to discover that even in those more complicated cases, rizzo is still right—there’s no wrong, there’s no right, there just is.

John mortimer A Rumpole Christmas: Stories Narrator to be Announced rumpole isn’t particularly fond of Christmas—time has a horrible habit of hanging heavily on the hands as the usual rituals are observed: exchanging presents with She Who must Be Obeyed (a tie for him; lavender water for her) before settling down round the fire at froxbury mansions for a traditional turkey with all the trimmings and a bottle of Chateau thames Embankment, then the Queen’s Speech and a glass of port. But at least the criminal fraternity never rests, and many is the time rumpole’s “celebrations” have been rudely interrupted. In these seven Christmas stories, previously published only in magazines, the call of justice (and a bit of excitement) leads rumpole as far afield as a health farm in Norfolk and as near to home as a pantomime at the tufnell Park Empire.

Joseph Wambaugh hollywood moon Narrated by Christian Rummel

SimuLTAneouS ReLeASe

there’s a saying at hollywood Station that the full moon rising over the city brings out the beast—rather than the best—in its citizens. And in hollywood, playground of transvestite hustlers, drug-crazed tweakers, and aspiring actors sometimes criminally desperate for fame, that’s saying something. LAPD veteran Dana Vaughn and “hollywood” Nate Weiss, a struggling-actor-turned cop, are hot on the trail of a man they suspect to be the perpetrator of a series of violent attacks on women. meanwhile, two surfer cops known as flotsam and Jetsam keep bumping into a pair of suspicious characters they’ve got pegged as petty criminals. No one suspects that they might be involved in something bigger, more high-tech, and much more illegal. After a dizzying series of twists, turns, and chases, the cops will find they’ve stumbled onto a complex web of crime where even the criminals aren’t quite sure who’s conning whom.

Suzanne Brockmann Stand-in Groom Narrator to be Announced they met in the middle of a Boston street mugging. By the time Johnny Anziano helped rescue the new shop-owner on the block, he’d fallen completely in love. But it seemed like the romance was over before it even started. Because in less than a week, Chelsea Spencer was getting married. then she asked Johnny for a favor that left the aspiring restaurateur reeling—a “business” proposition a man would be a fool to accept…and a damn fool not to. But the rules of the erotic game they were playing were dangerously shifting with every touch, every glance. until it was no longer a game at all and winning meant risking everything.

Swann’s Way, Part One was recently released by Sound Library®.

michael Pearce A Dead man in Barcelona Narrated by Clive Mantle Barcelona in 1912 is a city still recovering from the dramatic incidents of the so-called “tragic Week” when Catalonian conscripts bound for the unpopular war in Spanish morocco had rebelled at the city’s dockside against the royalist forces. In the fighting, many were killed, and afterward, even more imprisoned, including an Englishman, who was later found dead in his cell. the dead man had been a prominent businessman in Gibraltar, so what was he doing in Barcelona? And how did he really meet his end— murdered, in a prison cell? the case, in Gibraltar’s view, cries out for investigation—and by someone independent of the Spanish authorities. Scotland Yard dispatches Seymour of the Special Branch. SimuLTAneouS ReLeASe BBCAA exCLuSive hiSToRiCAL mySTeRy 6 CDs

Charlotte Bingham The Daisy Club Narrator to be Announced twistleton is a village untouched by time, taking its rhythms from the countryside around. Daisy, Jean, freddie and their friends Aurelia and Laura are devoted to the place, so that when war breaks out twistleton becomes the embodiment of everything for which they are fighting. for the previous generation the new conflict causes private despair, increased when twistleton is requisitioned by the Army. turfed out of their houses, the villagers take refuge at the hall. It is here that evacuees from the East End, butler and countryman band together to fight common enemies, whether drunken troops in the village, the bombs from the air, or rationing and the bitter weather. With death haunting their every moment, love is their one all-too-fleeting consolation—and also their final triumph. SimuLTAneouS ReLeASe BBCAA exCLuSive

The Arbinger institute Leadership and Self-Deception Getting out of the Box Narrated by William Dufris

most personal and organizational problems are the result of a little-known phenomenon called “self-deception.” We deceive ourselves into thinking we’re doing the right thing for the right reason, but people won’t follow a leader whose motives are selfish. the tricky thing is, we don’t know that our motivation is flawed. through an entertaining and highly instructive story, this audiobook explains what self-deception is, how people get trapped in it, how it undermines relationships and organizational achievement, and—most importantly— the surprising way to solve it.

The complete unabridged Agatha Christie Collection 2009 Releases Murder in the Mews

Towards Zero

Narrated by Nigel Hawthorne & Hugh Fraser

Narrated by Hugh Fraser

Three novellas comprise this intriguing collection, three mystifying cases for the great Hercule Poirot. Appointment with Death

When a murder occurs at a house party, Superintendent Battle is nearby and called on to help solve the case. But is the information on hand enough to go by, or do the events leading to the murder begin years in the past? Death Comes as the End

Narrated by Hugh Fraser

Hercule Poirot’s vacation in the Holy Land is interrupted by death in Petra. Hercule Poirot’s Christmas Narrated by Hugh Fraser

Multi-millionaire Simeon Lee is intent on playing a deadly and sadistic game with his family. An unexpected guest means that the house is full of potential suspects when the game turns deadly. Murder is Easy Narrated by Hugh Fraser

Murder is easy when it appears to be no more than a series of unrelated, fatal accidents. Can, Luke Fitzwilliam, a retired police officer, find the murderer before another person, perhaps even himself, becomes the next victim? And Then There Were None Narrated by Hugh Fraser

Ten people arrive on Indian Island off England’s southwest coast. Gradually each realizes that every single one of them is marked for murder. Terror mounts as their number dwindles. The Regatta Mystery and Other Stories Narrated by Hugh Fraser

An Enticing short story collection

Narrated by Emilia Fox

Agatha Christie weaves an enthralling tale imbued with the belief system of the early Egyptians and earthy details that ground the listener in the intriguing landscape of Egypt circa 2000 B.C. The Hollow Narrated by Hugh Fraser

A weekend party at the Angkatell’s estate. Famous crime man Hercule Poirot arrives to find a celebrated doctor permanently extricated from his affairs by a revolver at close range. The Labours of Hercules Narrated by Hugh Fraser

At a dinner party a guest compares the labours of Poirot to those of the Greek hero Hercules. Poirot has already decided to retire, but first he will take on twelve remarkable cases in the contemporary world that correspond to the twelve labours of Hercules. Taken at the Flood Narrated by Hugh Fraser

A few weeks after marrying an attractive young widow, Gordon Cloade is tragically killed in the London blitz. Poirot travels to the Cloade family’s hometown to find more than just family finances in question. Crooked House

Sad Cypress

Narrated by Hugh Fraser

Narrated by David Suchet

She has everything a girl can want: beauty, brains, money, and the man she loves. But Elinor Carlisle also has a murder indictment and her own criminal trial. Poirot is the only one who assumes she is innocent until truly proven guilty. One,Two, Buckle My Shoe Narrated by Hugh Fraser

What reason would an amiable dentist like Dr. Morley have for committing suicide? Hercule Poirot fears that Dr. Morley wasn’t an unlikely victim at all. Nor the first. Evil Under the Sun Narrated by David Suchet

The body of a beautiful and flirtatious actress is found strangled to death. Poirot unravels the crime with all the genius that his reputation has led us to expect.

Three generations of the Anglo-Greek Leonides family live together in a large, seemingly crooked house, under the patriarchy of Aristide. After the old man is poisoned with his own eye medicine, his granddaughter Sophia tells her fiancée Charles Hayward that she can’t marry him until the killer is apprehended; so, desperate for her hand in marriage, he begins his own investigation... A Murder is Announced Narrated by Rosemary Leach

An ad in the Gazette reads, “A murder is announced and will take place on Friday, October 29, at Little Paddocks, at 6:30 pm. Friends, please accept this, the only intimation.” When someone really is murdered, Miss Marple becomes involved in the case. They Came to Baghdad Narrated by Emilia Fox

N or M? Narrated by James Warwick

Spring 1940. As World War II heats up in England, Tommy and Tuppence Beresford are enlisted in the cause, independently taking on assumed identities to uncover Nazi informers who imperil the security of their homeland.

After a man dies in pretty Victoria Jones’ hotel room, British agents recruit her to infiltrate a devious group that has developed a secret weapon of massive proportions. The evil conspirators may have finally met their match. The Under Dog and Other Stories Narrated by Hugh Fraser

Five Little Pigs

A showcase of Poirot ‘s sleuthing genius in three exciting stories.

Narrated by Hugh Fraser

A beautiful young woman on the brink of marriage asks Hercule Poirot to pry apart the case of her father’s murder and prove her mother’s innocence.

They Do It With Mirrors

The Body in the Library Narrated by Stephanie Cole

While titillating rumors swirl in St. Mary Mead, Miss Marple uses keen instinct and observation to find killer.

When Miss Marple agrees to visit a girlhood friend, she becomes involved in her friend’s home for juvenile delinquents. She senses danger, but not necessarily from the juveniles. Her fears are confirmed when a secretive visitor is killed while a diversionary tactic is perfomed in front of everyone.

The Moving Finger

Mrs. McGinty’s Dead

Narrated by Martin Jarvis

Narrated by Hugh Fraser

The setting is a quiet English village with more than its share of (shameful) secrets, presenting Miss Marple with mysteries within a mystery.

D_text.indd 50

Narrated by Joan Hickson

Poirot, disillusioned by the “senseless cruel brutality” of modern crime, pays no attention to the sad case of Mrs. McGinty, but when he is asked to take another look he realizes that things may not be as simple as they first appear to be.
