The Debutante Divorcee audiobook

Debutante Divorcee, The

"Married girls in New York these days put almost as much effort into losing husbands as they once did into finding them"

In 2004, Plum Sykes jet-setted to bestsellerdom with Bergdorf Blondes , a playful debut novel that introduced listeners to the glamorous world of Park Avenue Princesses. Now Sykes takes us into the world of Debutante Divorcees —high society's newly unwed heiress set.

Lauren Blount's life is beautifully arranged: she's very rich, very young, very thin, very pretty—and very, very divorced. She is the most reckless and glamorous of Manhattan's Debutante Divorcee set. Lauren captivates Sylvia Mortimer, the group's token newlywed. But while Lauren sets out on a morality-lite, orgasm-heavy "Make Out Challenge, " Sylvia discovers her marriage isn't exactly an Eternity ad—especially when the city's most notorious Husband Huntress zeros in on her spouse. Navigating a world of Divorce Showers and Power Christenings, Socialite Babies, Professional Friends, Gorgeous West Village Wives, and Un-Googleable Men, Sylvia fears her husband is straying and starts asking, as Lauren says, "Who needs a husband anyway?" With her delightful mix of charm, cheek, and satire, Sykes has written a second novel that promises to be every bit as beloved as her smash debut.

Plum Sykes was born in London and educated at Oxford. She is a contributing editor at Vogue, where she writes on fashion, society, and Hollywood. She has also written for Vanity Fair. Her first novel, Bergdorf Blondes , was a runaway national bestseller and has been translated into fifteen languages. She lives in London and New York City.

Born and raised in London, Sonya Walger is best known for her role opposite Mike Binder in the HBO show The Mind of the Married Man . She made her onscreen debut opposite Alan Rickman and Janeane Garofalo in the film, The Search for John Gissing . Sonya now lives in Los Angeles, where she currently is preparing a number of projects for the stage and screen.

The Dangerous Hour audiobook

Dangerous Hour, The

Complacency can make a person careless, and Sharon McCone, who makes crime her business, should know that better than most. One minute she's riding high with her detective agency expanding, her bank account growing, and her only "problem" a marriage proposal from her lover, Hy Ripinsky, that's kicking up her longtime fears of commitment. The next minute, in the time it takes for a single phone call to bring bad news, she stands to lose everything.

McCone is stunned to learn that a favorite employee, streetwise and savvy Julia Rafael, has been charged with credit-card fraud. She thinks there must be a mistake - until she finds the goods charged to the stolen credit card in the firm's mailroom. As she starts to dig into the facts of the case, McCone realizes that someone is out to ruin her business, blacken her reputation, and harm those close to her...

Reaching back into her past to look for answers, she must come to grips with the violent twists and turns of her career, the choices she's faced, and the enemies she's made. How does the formerly trustworthy Julia fit into the big picture? And how does this new crisis tie into the recent murder of a popular Mission District fund-raiser? But when someone breaks into her car, invades her home, and upsets every aspect of her life, McCone knows one thing for sure: Now it's her turn to prove how tough she really is, and how far she'll go to get justice...and some payback of her own.

The Enemy Within the Gates

From the annals of wartime Britain come four brilliantly funny episodes with Captain Mainwaring's fully trained Home Guard platoon, ever ready to strike terror into the heart of the Wehrmacht from their unit in Walmington-on-Sea. Always prepared to fight to the finish, this endearing team of characters are at their incompetent best in these wonderfully entertaining adventures specially adapted for radio.

So... Watch out for a disorganised rabble of volunteers, some antiquated weaponry, the continuing shortage of proper equipment and the platoon's first Nazi prisoner.
