This program is read by award-winning narrator André Santana.The novel follows Óscar Amalfitano—an exiled Chilean university professor and widower—through the maze of his revolutionary past, his relationship with his teenage daughter, Rosa, his passion for a former student, and his retreat from scandal in Barcelona.Forced to leave Barcelona for Santa Teresa, a Mexican city close to the U.S. border where women are being killed in unprecedented numbers, Amalfitano soon begins an affair with Castillo, a young forger of Larry Rivers paintings. Meanwhile, Rosa, Amalfitano's daughter, engages in her own epistolary romance with a basketball player from Barcelona, while still trying to cope with her mother's early death and her father's secrets. After finding Castillo in bed with her father, Rosa is forced to confront her own crisis. What follows is an intimate police investigation of Amalfitano that involves a series of dark twists, culminating in a finale full of euphoria and heartbreak.Featuring characters and stories from his other books, Woes of the True Policeman invites the listener more than ever into the world of Roberto Bolaño.

  Swipe right for love. Swipe left for death. 
  In the aftermath of another harrowing case, FBI agent turned private investigator Winter Black is battling personal demons: guilt, her grandmother’s failing health, a strained alliance with a key detective, and the eerie knowledge that someone has been spying on her family. Amid these trials, Winter’s newest case emerges as a rare glimpse of normalcy, offering a seemingly simple investigation far removed from the deadly threats that have marked her recent past. 
  Until her new client turns up dead, a knife through his heart. 
  Even though dead men don’t pay, Winter feels a deep-seated responsibility to solve the murder of her client. Especially when another victim is murdered in the same manner. The common denominators? Both men were on the Wandering Hearts dating app for people looking to cheat, and the killer’s calling card—a gold broken heart charm—was left at the scene of both crimes. 
  Someone’s out for vengeance. And it’s personal. 
  In a bold gamble to catch the killer, Winter and her husband set up fake dating profiles for Winter’s office staff, placing them in the crosshairs of a deadly game. But one wrong move could land Winter in trouble with the local police, Noah in hot water with the FBI...and at least one person she cares for exposed to the killer's blade. 
  The mystery and suspense continue with Winter’s Gamble, the shocking fourth book in the Winter Black Season Two series, a stark reminder that the search for romance can quickly turn into a journey through a minefield, where every click might be your last.

  The long dormant dark god awakens to tighten his twisted grip on the world once more. Kyrzon, The Watcher, is the last member of the cabal of wizards duty bound to protect the lands from the return of the dark god and his evil general, Shazzura. From the kingdoms of the dwarves and the gnomes, to the lands of the humans and the elves, all the inhabitants of Orth could fall prey to the devastation that a power-mad god could bring to the world. Guided by his dead father, and a cryptic prophecy, Kyrzon must find the one man who can wield the fabled sword, lluminator, if the races are to have any hope of survival against the coming war. That is, of course, assuming the sword remains where he left it a thousand years ago. Author J. Pierce Cummings takes the reader on a wild ride through the lands of Orth where anything can happen, where prophecy only reveals half the truth.
