  Good Samaritan gunslinger Perley Gates returns for a new action-packed adventure from legendary national bestselling Western authors William W. Johnstone and J. A. Johnstone set in historic Texas. 
   
   
   
  Perley's elder brother, Rubin, who manages the Triple-G Ranch decides to try breeding some Hereford cattle with the ranch's longhorns. He asks Perley to deliver the contract for the Herefords, a simple task. But nothing ever remains simple when Perley is involved. And for the reluctant fast gun, it means a nightmare journey through hell itself . . .  
   
   
   
  The trouble starts when Perley and his sidekick, Possum, meet some damsels in distress—a lovely group of saloon girls with a broken wagon wheel. Being a good Samaritan, Perley feels honor-bound to help them. But when the travelers cross paths with an ornery gang of vicious outlaws, things turn deadly—and fast. It only gets worse from there, for Perley agrees to escort them to Nacogdoches—next to Angelina County, a section of which is infested with a special breed of vermin known as the Tarpley family. And this corrupt clan has a gunslinger—who'd love nothing more than to take down a living legend like Perley Gates . . .

  The Tattooist of Auschwitz is a deeply moving and inspiring story set during one of the darkest periods of human history—the Holocaust. The audiobook follows Lale Sokolov, a young Jewish man who finds himself imprisoned in the notorious Auschwitz concentration camp, where survival is a daily struggle against brutality and despair. However, Lale’s story is not just about survival; it is about the power of love, resilience, and hope when faced with unimaginable horrors.
   
  Lale is chosen to become the tattooist of Auschwitz, a role that, while providing some semblance of safety, forces him to confront the dehumanizing nature of the camp. As he tattoos identification numbers onto fellow prisoners, Lale’s path crosses with that of Gita Furman, a fellow prisoner who becomes his source of hope and strength. Their relationship, born in the most dire of circumstances, becomes a beacon of love and connection in a world where both seem impossible.

  "A murder will occur tonight at Beecham House . . ." Who could resist such a compelling invitation? Of course, the murder in question purports to be a party game, and Phyllida looks forward to using some of the deductive skills she has acquired thanks to her employer, Mrs. Agatha, who is unable to attend in person. 
   
   
   
  The hosts, Mr. and Mrs. Wokesley, are new to the area, and Phyllida gladly offers their own overwhelmed housekeeper some guidance while events get underway. Family friends have been enlisted to play the suspects, and Mr. Wokesley excels in his role of dead body. Unfortunately, when the game's solution is about to be unveiled, the participants discover that life has imitated art. Mr. Wokesley really is dead! 
   
   
   
  In the absence of Inspector Cork, Phyllida takes temporary charge of the investigation, guiding the local constable through interviews with the Murder Game actors. At first, there seems no motive to want Mr. Wokesley dead . . . but then Phyllida begins to connect each of the suspects with the roles they played and the motives assigned to them. It soon becomes clear that everyone had a reason to murder their host—both in the game and in real life. Before long, Phyllida is embroiled in a fiendishly puzzling case, with a killer who refuses to play by the rules . . .

  The tenth book in the dramatic and intriguing story about the colonisation of Australia: a country built on blood, passion, and dreams.
  Not only Englishmen come to the new country of Australia.
  A young American, the only survivor of a shipwreck, has also ended up there. She stands alone in this new and completely foreign world.
  Another American, who served in the British army against Bonaparte, has arrived as well — voluntarily.
  In this melting pot, everyone must establish a life for themselves. The obstacles are many, but the future is still bright ...
  Rebels and outcasts, they fled halfway across the earth to settle the harsh Australian wastelands. Decades later — ennobled by love and strengthened by tragedy — they had transformed a wilderness into a fertile land. And themselves into The Australians.
