  Cradock Nowell: a Tale of the New Forest is a three-volume novel by R. D. Blackmore published in 1866. Set in the New Forest and in London, it follows the fortunes of Cradock Nowell who, at the end of Volume 1, is thrown out of his family home and disowned by his father following the suspicious death of Cradock's twin brother Clayton, their father's favorite. In Volume 2, the story picks up with those left behind at Nowelhurst and the question of who is now heir apparent to the Nowell fortune. Meanwhile, Cradock discovers life independent of the Nowell name and fortune is not easy. At the end of volume 2, we leave Cradock fighting for his life and his beloved Amy rushing to be with him. It was Blackmore's second novel, and the novel he wrote prior to his most famous work Lorna Doone. *Warning: Some listeners may be offended by some of the language.

  Former Green Beret turned protector races against time to hunt down a missing pop star and dismantle a ruthless trafficking network in this fast-paced military action thriller about lone-wolf justice, ticking-clock stakes, and protecting family at any cost. 
   
  She's missing. And time is running out. 
   
  With his own car repair shop weeks from opening, John Tyler takes a temporary job to keep the lights on. At an old friend's urging, he joins a protection detail for pop singer Alex Anne during her hometown appearance. It should be easy money. It isn't. 
   
  When Alex Anne vanishes after her concert, Tyler doesn't wait for the official investigation to catch up. Something about the disappearance feels wrong, and he starts digging on his own. What he uncovers is far worse than a stalker or ransom plot. A ruthless trafficking network has taken the singer, planning to move her out of the country along with other missing women before anyone can stop them. 
   
  When the traffickers realize Tyler won't back down, they turn their attention to his weakest point: his daughter Lexi, who is in college nearby. With the clock ticking and a plane preparing for departure, Tyler goes on the offensive, prepared to take on the entire operation alone. 
   
  He's never cared about the odds. And he's not about to start now. 
   
  Lost Highway is Book Three in the John Tyler Thriller series, perfect for fans of fast-paced action thrillers, former military heroes, lone-wolf justice, and high-stakes danger.

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.  
  For fans of mind-bending stakes: Think The Man in the High Castle meets Dark Matter, with a dash of Cloud Atlas’s interconnected destinies. 
  In a world where history took a different path after a pivotal 17th-century battle, historian Oskar Sobieski makes a shocking discovery: the reality he knows—a technologically advanced Eastern European nation that never lost its sovereignty—was never supposed to exist. When he touches an ancient coin, Oskar glimpses an alternate timeline where his homeland fell, was erased from maps for over a century, and fought desperately for its resurrection. 
  Researchers investigating these timeline anomalies are mysteriously dying, thrusting Oskar and the enigmatic diplomat Marie-Claire Poniatowska into a dangerous conspiracy. Together, they uncover a terrifying truth: entities known as the Architects have been manipulating reality itself, and now three divergent timelines are collapsing toward a catastrophic convergence. 
  With the gleaming fusion-powered city around them experiencing increasingly dangerous reality fluctuations, Oskar must confront his own alternate self—a bitter, scarred version from a timeline of occupation and struggle. As the barriers between realities thin, Oskar faces an impossible choice: which version of history deserves to survive? 
  A mind-bending thriller that reimagines European history through the lens of quantum physics, The Crown Splits weaves rich historical heritage with cutting-edge speculative fiction. The fate of multiple realities is in the balance in this world of royal intrigue, interdimensional entities, and impossible choices.
