  Annie has fallen out of the habit of listening to her husband. She and Paul have been married for a long time; it's easy to nod as he drones on, responding to his voice while completely ignoring every word he says. That becomes a problem, of course, when Paul disappears and the police have questions. Was Paul having issues at work? Is there any reason to think he might harm himself? Annie doesn't know. But someone does. An unsettling photo found amongst Paul's things turns the investigation toward his job as a middle-school teacher and a troubled girl who is hiding secrets of her own. But what exactly happened to Paul on the day he left for work and never made it to the classroom? Is his disappearance related to a local heroin-trafficking operation? As Eddie Mahler and the members of the Santa Rosa Violent Crime Investigations Team rush to find him, they discover that members of his family have hidden lives of their own and that Paul may not have been running away but toward something that could ruin his career and marriage—and even cost his life.

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  Quantum is a fast, character-driven techno-thriller that collides hard science with the most human of stakes. When brilliant Oxford researcher Bella and physicist Jack stumble onto a discovery that could rewrite energy, encryption, and power itself, their work draws the attention of governments, venture capital—and darker forces. From ancient lanes in Oxford to the pilgrim road of the Camino de Santiago, the wide skies of Arizona, and the tunnels beneath CERN, the pair race to understand what they’ve unleashed: a breakthrough at the edge of quantum physics with consequences for every person on earth. Friendship deepens into love as secrets, betrayals, and international intrigue mount. Rich with real science and place, Quantum asks what we owe to truth—and to each other—when discovery outpaces our ability to control it.

  Private investigator Geronimo "Fitz" Fitzgerald plies his trade in the coastal Florida city of San Marco. No case is beneath his dignity: taking photos of cheating spouses or digging up dirt on local big shots or serving legal papers to the city's miscreants. They all pay the rent and keep the rum flowing to drown out the voices from his past. 
   
   
   
  However, Fitz is reluctant to take a job helping high school football coach Mack Thorpe, mainly because of the coach's uncontrollable temper. But the case, in which Thorpe is the main suspect in the rage-fueled murder of a United States senator, is too intriguing to turn down. When Fitz teams up with local journalist Mattie Castro, they learn that the senator's death, as well as subsequent murders, are tied to the senator's groundbreaking policy to alleviate homelessness in his district. 
   
   
   
  The investigation leads Fitz and Mattie from the cream of local society to the clutches of a swamp-dwelling, meth-cooking family. Things turn from grim to worse when Mattie is lured away by the killer, who is intent on making her another victim, even if it means killing Fitz first.

  Good does not exist. There is only the ever-swirling chaos of evil lurking just beyond the veil of our perception waiting to strike arbitrarily without purpose or reason. When evil throws its wiry tentacles out into our world leaving an inky black sludge of death, sadness, and destruction in their wake it' s done not out of maliciousness but at random with no forethought, no agenda. There is no prayer you can say, no spell to cast, no totem, no god benevolent or otherwise to provide protection from the denizens of evil who walk among us to carry out an agenda the same as they have for a thousand millennia. The Cadillac Man is one of these denizens, an extension of evil, a collector of sorts. He picks up people and moves them around like pieces on a chessboard vampirically gaining strength through the deeds and situations into which they' ve been placed. There' s no bargaining, no favor to curry, no chance of altering your fate. When the long black Cadillac pulls up alongside all you can do is get in, but you won' t enjoy the ride.
