The Child Between Us (EN)
Audiobook The Child Between Us, written by Alison Ragsdale. When I first met you, darling Marina, you were just five years old. You took my breath away, with your long, dark waves and pink cheeks. You needed me, and I instantly knew I’d do anything to protect you. When six years ago, my heart was shattered, I was left utterly broken – but I didn’t know just how lost I was until you filled that hole in my heart.

The History of a Difficult Child
Selam is the youngest child in a large turbulent family. Even before she is born, her omniscience animates life in a Small Town in 1980s southwestern Ethiopia. Selam and her father listen to the radio in secret as the socialist military junta that recently overthrew the government seizes properties and wages civil war in the North. The Asmelashes, once an enterprising, land-owning family, are ostracized under the new regime. In the Small Town where they live, nosy women convene around coffee ceremonies multiple times a day, the gossip spreading like wildfire.
As Selam's mother, the powerful and relentlessly dignified Degitu, grows ill, she embraces a persecuted, Pentecostal God and insists her family convert alongside her. The Asmelashes stand solidly in opposition to the times, and Selam grows up seeking revenge on despotic comrades, neighbourhood bullies, and a ruthless God. Wise beyond her years yet thoroughly naive, she contends with an inner fury, a profound sadness, and a throbbing, unstoppable pursuit of education, freedom, and love.
The History of a Difficult Child is about what happens when mother, God, and country are at odds, and how one difficult child finds her voice.
Dokonalý plán
V městě Gerrardsvillu v Coloradu dojde k tragické události. Dva svědci podají dvě protichůdné výpovědi. Jeden viděl, že se žena sama vrhla pod autobus – jednoznačně spáchala sebevraždu. Druhým svědkem je Reacher. A viděl, co se skutečně stalo – ženu strčil pod autobus muž v šedé mikině s kapucí a v džínách, rychlý a nenápadný jako stín, a předtím, než zmizel, jí ukradl kabelku.
Bývalý vojenský policista Jack Reacher ho začne pěšky pronásledovat, aniž by tušil, že se nejedná o běžný násilný čin. Neví, že ženina smrt je součástí něčeho mnohem většího – zlověstného, tajemného spiknutí, za nímž stojí mocní lidé zapletení do plánu, který se nesmí za žádnou cenu zhatit. Pokud plán někdo ohrozí, musí být bleskurychle a navždy odstraněn z cesty.
A pokud onen plán ohrozí Reacher, nelze použít žádný plán B.

Jack Reacher sa po náročnej ceste konečne dostáva do cieľa: do hlavného stanu svojho starého pôsobiska, sto desiatej jednotky vojenskej polície. Chladná kamenná budova preňho predstavuje jediný domov, aký kedy mal. Tentoraz však prichádza z čisto osobného dôvodu: aby spoznal majorku Susan Turnerovú, novú veliacu dôstojníčku, ktorej sympatický hlas pozná z telefónu. Na jeho nemilé prekvapenie však za veliteľským stolom žiadna žena nesedí. V dusivej atmosfére na Reachera navyše číhajú vážne nástrahy v podobe obvinení, ktorých potvrdenie by mohlo rozvrátiť celý jeho život. Ako sa to mohlo stať? Na to musí Jack prísť za každú cenu!

Spravedlnost
Jack Reacher je bývalý vojenský policista, vycvičený, aby si všímal věcí. Sedí v autobuse Geyhound a pozoruje spícího staříka, kterému vykukuje z kapsy silná obálka s penězi. Staříka pozoruje i jiný pasažér... očividně natěšený, že zbohatne.
Když se zloděj konečně odhodlá k činu, Reacher přispěchá na pomoc. Stařík je vděčný, ale odmítne doprovod domů. Je zranitelný, vyděšený a očividně vězí ve velkém, velkém maléru.
V jiné části města bojují o nadvládu dva nemilosrdné gangy, ukrajinský a albánský. Mají staříka ve své moci? Bude Reacher nečinně přihlížet a dopustí, aby došlo k nejhoršímu? Nebo se mu podaří zvrátit situaci ve prospěch těch, kteří to nejvíce potřebují?
„Žijeme v náhodném vesmíru,“ říká Reacher. „Jednou za uherský rok něco dobře dopadne.“
Reacherova přítomnost zvyšuje šance. To rozhodně.

A Child for the Reich
Rumours of the Nazis coming for Czech children swept through the villages like a breeze through the trees, and the story was always the same...
They wanted our children to raise as their own. Since her husband, Josef, joined the Czech resistance three years ago, Anna Dankova has done everything possible to keep her daughter, Ema, safe. But when blonde haired, blue-eyed Ema is ripped from her mother's arms in the local marketplace by the dreaded Brown Sisters, nurses who were dedicated to Hitler's cause, Anna is forced to go to new extremes to take back what the Nazis have stolen from her.
Going undercover as a devoted German subject eager to prove her worth to the Reich, the former actress takes on a role of a lifetime to find and save her daughter. But getting close to Ema is one thing. Convincing her that the Germans are lying when they claim Anna stole her from her true parents is another...

Nincs visszaút
Jack Reacher, a magányos igazságosztó kíváncsiságát felkelti a különleges egység új parancsnokának, Susan Turnernek az elragadó hangja. Úgy dönt, személyesen is meg akarja ismerni a nőt, ezért a hófödte Dél-Dakotából egészen Északnyugat-Virginiáig megy. A bázisra érve azonban a parancsnoknak csupán hűlt helyét találja. Nyomozásba kezd, hogy megtalálja Turnert, ám közben kísértik a múlt árnyai, és az igazságszolgáltatással is meggyűlik a baja. Csak leleményességének és katonai rutinjának köszönhetően tud szabadulni, hogy - immár a parancsnokkal az oldalán - tisztázhassa magát. Menekülni kényszerül, véres hajsza veszi kezdetét. Miközben igyekszik mindig egy lépéssel az üldözői előtt járni, kénytelen szembesülni azzal, hogy egy férfi és egy nő mennyire másként láthatja a világot. Lee Child mesterien szövi össze a mozaikszerűen kibontakozó történet és az igazságért folytatott küzdelem szálait. Az izgalmas regény lapjain hősének, Jack Reachernek ezúttal komoly önvizsgálatot kell tartania: mit tett a múltban, ki is ő valójában, és vajon milyen jövő vár rá.

How do you tell a man there is something wrong with his child?
— This is by far one of the best books I have read. Lorhainne Eckhart proved herself yet again by pulling you in with a heartfelt story and keeping your attention with the passion that fills the pages. -- ROMANCE JUNKIES
— I didn't expect I'd fall for the four main characters as hard as I did, but The Forgotten Child is an amazing book, not just for a romance fan like myself, but for single parents who may or may not have a child with autism.-- Reviewer -- Adria
— A Real Tear Jerker: Omg, I loved this book. I stayed up all night trying to finish it. I cried, My heart broke, I have an 18 year old with autism. This would make a fabulous movie... Tammy
— "Brilliant, there is no other word for it, heart grabbing, heart warming, gut wrenching, well written well researched, wanted to read it over & over again." - Maureen
In THE FORGOTTEN CHILD, Brad Friessen wasn't looking to love again. But what he got was a woman who shook his lonely bitter world upside down, and touched him in a way no other woman could.
Emily Nelson, ends a loveless, bitter marriage and strikes out on her own. She answers an ad as a cook and live-in caregiver to a three-year-old boy on a local ranch. Ranch owner Brad Friessen hires and moves in Emily and her daughter. But Emily soon discovers something's seriously wrong with the boy, and the reclusive, difficult man who hired her can't see the behavior and how delayed his son is. Emily researches until she stumbles across what she suspects are the soft signs of autism. Now she must tell him, give him hope, and help him come to terms with this neurological disorder--to take the necessary steps to get his child the help he needs.
As their lives become intertwined, their attraction is unavoidable--a connection sparks between them. But just as they're getting close, Brad's estranged wife, Crystal, returns after abandoning the family two years earlier.
Crystal must've had a plan, as she somehow gains the upper hand, driving a wedge in the emotional bond forged between Brad, Emily, and the children. The lengths to which Crystal will go, the lies, the greed, just to keep what's hers, are nothing short of cold and calculating. Brad fights to save his boy, to protect what's his, and struggles over his greatest sacrifice--Emily, and the haunting question: Has he lost her forever.
The Forgotten Child is the first book in The Outsider Series, the beginning of this romantic family saga of the Friessen men and the women they love, which now spans three series. The Forgotten Child is a love story between the oldest of the Friessen brother's Brad and Emily, a woman he hires to take care of his autistic child.
