  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  1989, Botswana. 
  A marriage on the edge. A death that still haunts the desert. 
  When the Australian pilots’ dispute explodes, journalist Verity White and her airline-pilot husband, James, see their hard-won careers collapse overnight. Bound by loyalty and fifteen years of history, Verity follows James to Botswana, where the wild beauty of the Okavango Delta promises a fresh start—and instead exposes every fracture in their marriage. 
  Adrift in the isolated safari camps, Verity stumbles on the echoes of an old tragedy: a hunting trip in the Kalahari that ended in a young man’s death. As she begins to ask questions, she’s drawn into the orbit of Starky Willis, a charismatic safari operator with a past knotted tightly to that night—and to whispers of illegal wildlife killings that stain the desert silence. 
  As poachers, old loyalties and buried guilt converge, Verity must decide what she’s willing to risk: her marriage, her life, or her chance to finally reclaim herself in a land where every choice has a cost.

  The Fairy Book of Astronomy — A Lost Classic Back in Print   Katharine Fay Dewey’s only novel was forgotten by time, going out of print after only one edition was published in 1910… and now her legacy has been given new life.   The traditional mythology of the zodiac constellations is well-known, but what happened after those stories were over? How do the people in the sky now interact with each other, with other beings of the heavens, and with those down on Earth?   Here, four girls illuminate the Star People’s adventures in a series of intricately woven tales of friendship, coming-of-age, and found family in the ever-shifting landscape of the celestial sphere.   This new edition contains original illustrations by Frances B. Comstock and a foreword from author and journalist D.P. Benjamin that reveals long-lost information on Katharine Fay Dewey.   Like sailors using the night sky to navigate a vast ocean, Star People and the story of its author have found their way to a new, modern readership.

  "For sheer readability he has no peer" —Evening Standard 
   
   
   
  Paris in the 1960s caters for every taste, and nowhere more than at the private "clinic" run by the enigmatic Monsieur Datt on Avenue Foch, which supplies psychedelic drugs and sexual favors to the city's elite—all the while secretly filming guests in order to blackmail them. Into this decadent underworld steps a bespectacled British spy. Sent on what seems like a simple mission, he soon finds himself playing a game where the rules are unknown—and even victory could be fatal.
