When the truth about their sexual orientations came to light, their marriage and TV careers ended, but decades later they have remained friends. Together, they open Palm Springs’ chicest movie memorabilia store, Hooray for Hollywood, but no customers and dwindling finances spell trouble. A Hail Mary arrives in the form of Yana Tosh, a ninety-year-old diva of the silver screen who has amassed a valuable collection of costumes and props and is looking to sell. But first, Jay and Cindy have to beat their competition, a vice president from a mega-auction house with ten times their resources. And when he winds up dead, they become prime suspects in the murder. With their freedom and livelihoods on the line, Jay and Cindy desperately need to clear their names. There are plenty of other potential suspects, but they'll have to solve it soon before they're forced to trade in their vintage costume collection for two orange jumpsuits.

DeepZen uses Emotive Speech Technology to create digital narrations that offer a similar listening experience to human narration. FBI special agent Sofia Blake, with a Ph.D. in linguistics, can decipher any hidden codes, messages, or foreign languages the Bureau sends her way, finding patterns where others cannot and making her indispensable in tracking down the most heinous of serial killers.

    - Taylor Jenkins Reid 
    A washed-up child actor…  A missing twin…  Some stars burn out. Others vanish without a trace. 
    Identical twins Will and Billy Benson were once the beloved child-stars of a hit '90s sitcom. One abrupt cancellation, and thirty years later, they've been relegated to ‘Where Are They Now?’ status. Will walked away from the spotlight and settled into obscurity as a security guard. Billy, unable to accept the end of his glory days, spent the intervening decades chasing a comeback, and spiraling further and further into addiction. One night, Billy shows up at Will’s apartment—panicked, bloodied, and mumbling cryptically. Something happened. Something bad, but by morning, he's gone. Now it’s up to Will to chase down clues and find his wayward twin. As he follows a trail of half-truths and faded memories, Will crosses paths with a cast of suspects pulled straight from Hollywood’s underbelly: a seedy agent, a shifty pornstar, a misogynistic online influencer, and a stalker from their fan club days. Piece by piece, Will unravels the mystery of his brother’s disappearance— only to discover that the truth is darker, and far more dangerous, than he ever imagined. Now, he’s running out of time— but the closer he gets to the truth, the closer he gets to being the next to disappear.  
    A unique and immersive auditory experience, this audiobook blends evocative music, cinematic sound design, and a riveting performance by Keir O'Donnell that will plunge listeners deep into a thrilling narrative that delivers a powerful emotional punch.

    A glamorous perfume launch with death as the top note… a captivating case for Posie Parker! 
    Summer, 1925. 
    Posie Parker, Private Detective, has been summoned to Chelsea, to the House of Sinne, the London perfume house. Anouk Sinne, the most brilliant perfumier of her age, and famous for her spoiled bald cat, has been receiving blackmail demands, and she asks Posie to investigate. But is blackmail just the tip of the iceberg? 
    A ‘reveal’ party for the Anouk’s highly-anticipated new fragrance is just about to take place, and Posie, together with her best friend Dolly, Countess Cardigeon, finds herself rubbing shoulders with some very famous people in the legendarily-secret flower garden, including Gordy Lorkinsson, the celebrity Icelandic gardener, and the French Duchesse, Maria de Poilac, together with her gorgeous son, Anatole. 
    But after the ‘reveal’ of the strangest perfume Posie has ever experienced, hosted by a mysterious Indian Princess, Priyanka of Gwilim, things take a chilling turn for the worse… Arguments break out between Hubert Pring, Anouk’s long-time sponsor, and Archie Van Dusen, the American billionaire shop-owner, regarding who the new perfume really belongs to. But where is Anouk to settle the point? 
    When Anouk Sinne is found murdered, and the new perfume suddenly disappears, Posie must investigate, and quickly. And what she uncovers are secrets everywhere, and motives galore. Who was Anouk Sinne really? And when the killer ingeniously kills for a second time, Posie realises that nothing at the House of Sinne is quite what is seems. With the help of her husband Richard, Chief Commissioner of Scotland Yard, can Posie stop the killer before they strike again?

    It was the 29th of October 1933, three days before Samhain, when the gateway to the Otherworld stood wide open, and the dead were honoured whilst one simultaneously had to protect oneself from evil spirits, when Inspector Wolfford appeared at Holmes and Watson's in Baker Street asking for help. The midwife Mrs Hughes was found dead in her flat. Around the corpse, five pumpkins had been placed, each carved with a grotesque face and brightly illuminated. Several inconsistencies immediately caught Holmes's eye, and thus the case presented a puzzle even for the master detective and his assistant...
