  This program is read by the author and includes the original song "Imposter."From the award-winning, multihyphenate global entertainer Keke Palmer comes the inspiring true story of her journey to understanding her genuine value."Authentic and deep, [Palmer] draws listeners in with her signature voice, which has the ability to be energetic, sincere, and playful all at once."—AudioFile“Palmer narrates with her signature dynamic tone, achieving humor, gravity and sarcasm, sometimes all within the same chapter.”—BookPage (starred review)A MOST ANTICIPATED BOOK OF FALL 2024Keke Palmer thought she knew who she was. What it means to be a good person and what it takes to be a success. It all seemed so simple, until she realized the challenges she would have to face to prove to herself who she wanted to be. From feeling alienated to having to restart her career after ten years in to becoming a single mother just months after her son was born—everything she worked for in life that she felt granted her what she wanted now also reminded her that “life is going to life” and throw curveballs regardless of what you deserve. She found herself asking, Where do I find my power? How do I master myself?In her own raw and intimate voice, Keke talks about everything from her struggles with boundaries to unconditional love, forgiveness, and worthiness. “Don’t block your blessings and potential opportunities by allowing the voices of other people to influence your actions,” she says. “How you’re choosing to set yourself up for success is between you and the person looking back at you in the mirror.”Throughout the book, Keke also poses listeners with the questions needed to get them through their own challenging times by sharing personal stories and lessons she’s learned along the way. She gets candid about the tools she’s developed to take the reins, harness her vulnerability, and recognize ownership in the narrative of her life—which allowed her to turn personal power into major power.In this exhilarating, deeply poignant, and often laugh-out-loud book, Lauren Keyana Palmer gets real about life, work, love, and belief. These pages will encourage readers to empower themselves with the truth, leverage their currency, and find the keys to master themselves and the art of alchemy. Keke writes, “You are not on anyone else’s timeline, only your own.”The result is a tour de force.They said, “Jack of all Trades, Master of None.”She said, “No, I am the Master. Of Me.”"Imposter" was produced by: Kenneth “KP” Paige & B HAM.

  The God of His Fathers

  The God of His Fathers: Tales of The Klondyke, It was written by Jack London in the 1919 year. 
  As a young man in the summer of 1897, Jack London joined the Klondike gold rush. From that seminal experience emerged these gripping, inimitable wilderness tales, which have endured as some of London's best and most defining work. With remarkable insight and unflinching realism, London describes the punishing adversity that awaited men in the brutal, frozen expanses of the Yukon, and the extreme tactics these adventurers and travelers adopted to survive.
  This is more literary, a deeper examination of the human condition, and a homage to the beauty, purity and ease with which one can lose one's life to nature, the elements or other fellow travelers.

  Sasha LaPointe has always longed for a sense of home. When she was a child, her family moved around frequently, often staying in barely habitable church attics and trailers, dangerous places for young Sasha. 
   
   
    
  With little more to guide her than a passion for the thriving punk scene of the Pacific Northwest and a desire to live up to the responsibility of being the namesake of her beloved great-grandmother—a linguist who helped preserve her Indigenous language of Lushootseed—Sasha throws herself headlong into the world, determined to build a better future for herself and her people. 
   
   
    
  Set against a backdrop of the breathtaking beauty of Coast Salish ancestral land and imbued with the universal spirit of punk, Red Paint is ultimately a story of the ways we learn to find our true selves while fighting for our right to claim a place of our own. 
   
   
    
  Examining what it means to be vulnerable in love and in art, Sasha offers up an unblinking reckoning with personal traumas amplified by the collective historical traumas of colonialism and genocide that continue to haunt native peoples. Red Paint is an intersectional autobiography of lineage, resilience, and, above all, the ability to heal.

  Dr Liz O’Riordan is a breast cancer surgeon who has battled against social, physical and mental challenges to practise at the top of her field. Under the Knife charts Liz’s incredible highs: performing like a couture dressmaker as she moulded and reshaped women’s breasts, while saving their lives; to the heart-breaking lows of telling ten women a day that they had cancer. 
   
  But this memoir is more than just an eye-opening look at the realities of training to be a female surgeon in a man’s world. In addition to this high-powered, high-pressured role, Liz faced her own breast cancer diagnosis, severe depression and suicidal thoughts, in tandem with commonplace sexual harassment and bullying. And by revealing how she coped when her life crashed around her, she demonstrates there is always hope.

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  In the annals of criminal history, few cases are as disturbing as that of Robert Hendy-Freegard—a master manipulator who earned the nickname "The Puppet Master" for his ability to control his victims' every move. This gripping true crime investigation by Walid Saleh exposes the shocking story of Britain's most dangerous con artist, whose sophisticated psychological warfare destroyed families and shattered lives across two decades. 
  Unlike ordinary criminals who rely on physical force or simple fraud, Freegard wielded something far more insidious: the power to completely rewire his victims' reality. Posing as an MI5 agent, he convinced university students they were being hunted by Irish terrorists, forcing them to abandon their families, friends, and futures. For ten years, his victims lived in constant fear of phantom enemies while he systematically drained their families of over one million pounds. 
  From the agricultural colleges of rural England to the corridors of Scotland Yard, from broken families in London to FBI operations across the Atlantic, this is more than just a crime story—it's a terrifying exploration of human vulnerability and the darkest capabilities of the criminal mind. 
  This meticulously researched account serves as both a riveting true crime narrative and a crucial warning about the sophisticated predators who walk among us. It's a story that will make you question everything you think you know about trust, manipulation, and the very nature of evil itself.
