Beschreibung

Socialite and ‘professional beauty’, Lady Odele Ashford, is taken aback when her lover, the notorious womaniser Prince Ivan Katinouski, asks her to find him a young bride, who will give him the children he has always wanted, specifying that she must be pure and innocent and of noble English birth. At first she thinks that this will surely interfere with her own intimate relationship with the handsome and immensely rich Prince. But then inspiration strikes. Her own innocent eighteen-year-old niece, the blonde, blue-eyed and beautiful Charlotte Storr is the perfect match! When Lady Storr receives a letter demanding that Charlotte is to attend a ball at his huge Castle to meet her unwanted suitor, young Charlotte is horror-stricken because her heart already belongs to Honourable Shane O’Derry, an impoverished Irish aristocrat.Desperate to distract the attention of the Prince, Charlotte’s brother Richard and Shane recruit another young beauty, a music teacher’s daughter, Alana, to pose as a young Noblewoman in the hope of distracting the Prince away from Charlotte.Alana is an ethereal and almost mystical beauty, who is an exceptional musician like her father. Reluctantly entangled in a web of intrigue Alana is at first repelled by the playboy Prince, yet finds herself drawn by some strange magical Power in his possession.

    I made it home. But something came with me … 
    From hero to outcast. From saviour to biohazard … 
    As hollow victories go, this one is hard to beat. 
    When Driver and I saved Earth from the Anomaly's suffocating radiation, we thought it was all over. 
    Our triumphant return from the occupied alien world of Bayzen was supposed to draw a line under everything. 
    The problem is, we didn't come home alone. 
    No one has ever seen anything like this. 
    What they're calling it sends shivers down my spine: a parasitic alien pathogen. 
    It could be a virus, a toxin, or maybe something even worse. And believe me: what we don't know definitely can hurt us. 
    It's too late for me—I've been exposed. But this has never been about me. 
    It's going to take some incredible risks and another long-shot space mission to get to the bottom of this, but I'll fight until my last breath to undo the damage I've done. 
    As a horrible question echoes in my mind, I'll do anything to make sure the answer is the right one: 
    Am I Earth's last hope … or the man who sealed its fate?

    In the high-stakes world of Blackjack and Solitaire, loyalty is a dangerous gamble. 
    Fredrick was once a rising star in the NFL, but his gambling addiction cost him everything. Now, he’s a man with two masters—Ace, the ruthless kingpin of Blackjack, and Solitaire, the organization that owns his debts. As Ace’s top enforcer, Fredrick keeps order in the club, but behind the scenes, he trades secrets to his rivals for a chance at clearing his slate. 
    When Jack—scarred, relentless, and hunted—walks into the club with Burt, a flashy card counter with a penchant for trouble, Fredrick senses an opportunity. His employers want to keep tabs on Jack, but so do their enemies. As the walls close in, Fredrick must make a choice: stay the course and risk exposure, or strike the ultimate deal to secure his freedom. 
    But in a world where debts are paid in blood, playing both sides might be the most dangerous bet of all. 
    Episode 9 of The Solitaire Series, The Five of Clubs, takes listeners deeper into the criminal underworld, where power is an illusion and survival is never guaranteed.
