Title: The Mary Celeste Author: Brian Freemantle Narrator: Antony Ferguson Format: Unabridged Length: 6 hrs and 25 mins Language: English Release date: 12-06-12 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 3 of 5 out of 4 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Historical Publisher's Summary: On 5th December 1872, Captain David Reed Morehouse sighted the Mary Celeste, an American half-brig carrying 1,700 barrels of commercial alcohol, apparently calling for help. The fluttering he took to be a distress signal was a ripped, tattered sail; the wheel was unmanned; the master, Captain Briggs; his wife; their two-year-old daughter; and the entire crew had disappeared. Frederick Solly Flood, attorney general of Gibraltar, can see only one possible cause - mutiny and murder. In a tense courtroom, he is determined to prove a dreadful crime has been committed; turning a civil inquiry into a criminal prosecution and allowing stains on the deck - which he knows to be rust - to be passed off as blood. Two compelling narratives are interwoven: As Flood forces the evidence and badgers the witnesses, the voyage itself is brought vividly back to life. But there remains one simple, known fact. Its repercussions have been overlooked by history, but they at last point to the true fate of those aboard the Mary Celeste.... Critic Reviews: "[Freemantle] hauls you aboard and wont let you off until the roller coaster stops." (Los Angeles Times) "Freemantle has no peer when it comes to writing espionage thrillers." (Booklist) "A master storyteller." (Publishers Weekly)

Critic Reviews: "This winning collaborative debut by Dobson, author of the Professor Karen Pelletier mysteries, and Myers, author of the Baroque series, introduces two determined female amateur sleuths operating just as the United States enters World War II. Recommend for fans of Rhys Bowens Molly Murphy series and Sarah Shabers Louise Pearlie mysteries." (Library Journal) "Dobsonand Myers collaborate to introduce a planned series on wartime New York. Colorful characters and the evocation of Gotham in the 1940s: the Bund, America First, egg creams, Schraffts, Horn & Hardart. More, please." (Kirkus Reviews) "Face of the Enemyis much more than a whodunit - with New York City as its backdrop, this mystery explores how a diverse cast of characters attempt to make sense of the most seminal event in the 20th century - World War II. The plight of a Japanese immigrant artist, pursued by both the FBI and New York Police Department, is especially moving. If you are not a fan of 1940s American history, you will become one!"

Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 3 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Historical Publisher's Summary: The year is 548, and Empress Theodora is dead of disease. Such is the belief of everyone in Constantinople, capital of the Roman Empire - everyone except Emperor Justinian, who orders John, his Lord Chamberlain, to find her murderer or suffer the consequences. There is no sign of foul play, but many of the aristocrats at the imperial court had good reason to want Theodora dead. Suspects include General Artabanes, forced to occupy a house with an unloved wife, and Justinians cousin Germanus, who has seen his career blocked. Also suspect are Antonina and her husband, General Belisarius, enraged by Theodoras attempt to marry their daughter to her grandson by compelling the young couple to live together. Could the exiled and much hated former tax collector John the Cappadocian have played a role? Might Gaius, palace physician, have tampered with Theodoras medication? Pope Vigilius, who was detained in the capital due to a religious controversy, is not above suspicion. Even friends of John the Lord Chamberlain are acting strangely, including Anatolius the lawyer and Felix, captain of the palace guards. As if it isnt difficult enough to seek a murderer who seems to be a figment of the emperors grief-deranged imagination, John must also grapple with domestic upheavals. His daughter, living on an estate outside of the city, is about to give birth, and his aging servant, Peter, is dying. Will John be able to serve justice, his loved ones, and the emperor? Critic Reviews: Excellent...Subtle, well-drawn charactersdeft descriptive detailand sharp dialogue make this another winner in this outstanding historical series.
