Sinopse

The Great Impersonation is the high point in the literature of deception and conspiracy; of all the stories of international intrigue and espionage, no other is written with such consummate skill, and such a perfect blending of love, secret-enterprise, and malevolent cunning. Oppenheim is the great master of romances ingeniously woven into a colourful background of extra-political adventure, and The Great Impersonation is the best he has ever written.The most celebrated of Oppenheim’s books, The Great Impersonation opens in East Africa in 1913, as the disgraced English aristocrat Everard Dominey stumbles out of the bush only to come face to face with his double—the German Baron von Ragastein. When Dominey returns to London months later and resumes his glittering social life, suspicions rise: Is this really Dominey, or a German agent infiltrating high society on the eve of war?

    "Listening to Grover Gardner narrating a David Rosenfelt novel is like sliding into favorite slippers at the end of a long day: One feels the joyful gratification of a perfect fit."—AudioFile on Bark of NightThe next installment in David Rosenfelt’s bestselling Andy Carpenter series brings a lone pup to his doorstep, but when it comes to dogs, The More the Terrier.Reluctant lawyer Andy Carpenter is relieved to be headed back to Paterson, New Jersey, after a week-long family vacation in the Adirondacks. He's ready to put the holly jolly season way behind him and settle in at home with his three dogs. But when they finally arrive, there is an extra dog eagerly awaiting them, as well as one anxious dog sitter.When the dog showed up on the doorstep a few days ago, the sitter knew Andy would know what to do. Indeed, Andy recognizes Murphy, who the Carpenters fostered before the dog went home with BJ Bremer and his mother.  BJ wanted to learn all he could about caring for Murphy, which made Andy like him immediately.When Andy goes to take Murphy back to the Bremers, though, instead of the happy reunion he expects, he finds BJ's mother in tears. It turns out Murphy ran off…after BJ was arrested for murder. Andy had hoped for a quiet Christmas vacation, but he likes Murphy’s family and his golden retriever, Tara, likes Murphy, so he can't resist getting involved. The case isn’t as simple as Andy thought it would be, though, with BJ suspected of murdering one of his professors. With nothing to go on but Andy's own conviction in BJ's dog-loving character, proving his innocence would be a Christmas miracle.  With equal doses of doggy humor and courtroom drama, as well as  Andy Carpenter's traditional humbug Christmas spirit, David Rosenfelt delivers another winner.A Macmillan Audio production from Minotaur Books.

    A name for a name. 
     
     
     
    Will the dead speak, then, and cry out for the one who killed him? 
     
     
     
    Or whisper secrets that may take this case deeper—and uncover truths someone would kill to keep buried? 
     
     
     
    Contains mature themes.
