The Black Book - Ian Rankin

The Black Book - audio book - Ian Rankin

When a close colleague is brutally attacked, Inspector John Rebus is drawn into a case involving a hotel fire, an unidentified body, and a long-forgotten night of terror and murder. Pursued by dangerous ghosts and tormented by the coded secrets of his colleague's notebook, Rebus must piece together a jigsaw no one — perhaps not even he — wants completed.

Taggart star James Macpherson brings his 'police' experience to this captivating reading, which also draws on his extensive radio acting.

'A series that shows no signs of flagging ...The character of Rebus grows in moral stature' -
Time Out.

'A classic personality detective story in the tradition of Holmes right through to Morse' - Birmingham Post.

'All Orion's Rankin releases make for absorbing listening.' - Christina Hardyment in the Independent.

This story may contain strong language, and some scenes described may be disturbing.

James Macpherson played DCI Jardine in Taggart for fifteen years — and then moved to The Bill. He has acted on stage in plays as diverse as The Taming of the Shrew and works by Hamish Wilson. He won the BBC Carleton Hobbs Award, and continues to work on radio. He presented a books programme for Radio Scotland and now co-presents a discussion of Scottish football. He lives in Glasgow.

18 Seconds - audio book - George D. Shuman

Investigative consultant Sherry Moore is blind and stunningly beautiful, with the extraordinary ability to "see" the deceased's last eighteen seconds of memory by touching the corpse. A head injury at age five left her without sight and prevented her from remembering her past. When Sherry discovers she has the sight, she learns to use her gift to help others solve mysteries that only she can tap into.

Wildwood police lieutenant Kelly O'Shaughnessy is stymied over the disappearance of young women. When an old man's untimely death leads Sherry Moore to Wildwood, O'Shaughnessy's desperation forces her to accept Sherry's help, but not without consequence. As the two women join forces to discover the killer's identity, they unwittingly become the hunted, marching deeper with every step into the monster's lair.

Serial killer Earl Sykes was never caught for his vicious murders. Instead, a deadly traffic accident landed him in prison. Now almost thirty years later, he returns to the seaside town of Wildwood, New Jersey—and to abducting young female victims for his gruesome games.
A law enforcement veteran himself, George Shuman packs a realistic style and authentic investigative detail into this taunt tale filled with pulse pounding tension that will send listeners right to the edge.

George D. Shuman is a twenty-year veteran of the Washington, D. C., Metropolitan Police force, in which he served as an undercover narcotics detective; a sergeant in the Special Assignments Branch, Internal Affairs Division; operations commander of the Metropolitan Police Academy; and lieutenant commander in the Public Integrity Branch, Internal Affairs Division. He lives in Pennsylvania and North Carolina. This is his first novel.
