About this listen
Plegarias nocturnas es una novela negra. Plegarias nocturnas es una
historia de amor.
Manuel, un estudiante de filosofía colombiano, es acusado de tráfico de drogas y retenido en una cárcel en Bangkok. La ley tailandesa es clara en estos casos: la pena para los traficantes es la muerte. El cónsul colombiano en Nueva Delhi es el encargado de comunicar al reo sus opciones e intentar cumplir el único deseo que parece albergar: encontrar a su hermana Juana, desaparecida en Colombia años antes. El cónsul la encuentra, y Juana relata el auge del paramilitarismo durante el mandato de Uribe, el drama de los desaparecidos, y el origen de su rabia y su férrea determinación de hacer que las cosas cambien. La epopeya de Juana por conseguir un nuevo futuro la lleva de un lado al otro, de Tokio a Teherán y de la prostitución al matrimonio. Tras sus huidizos pero firmes pasos camina primero su hermano Manuel y después el cónsul, en un intento de restablecer la justicia, aunque a veces sea demasiado tarde.
Please note: This audiobook is in Spanish.

Timothy and Jonah, wealthy entrepreneurs with a spoiled son, hide sins from their past—one involving a death on a cruise, the other a crime in Bali. Nathan and Samantha, the hot ex-nanny turned trophy wife, grapple with infertility and a shocking paternity secret. Bartosz and Angelika (he’s a chef, she’s a former sex worker) carry debts to the other couples they don’t even realize they owe. Over fourteen days, the couples bond—but their pasts are too deeply intertwined to stay hidden. The sly concierge, Putu, knows more than he lets on.

It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom.

The 13 chapters of The Art of War, each devoted to one aspect of warfare, were compiled by the high-ranking Chinese military general, strategist, and philosopher Sun-Tzu. In spite of its battlefield specificity, The Art of War has found new life in the modern age, with leaders in fields as wide and far-reaching as world politics, human psychology, and corporate strategy finding valuable insight in its timeworn words.

Story
Lucas knows the perfect night entails just three things: video games, wine, and pad thai. Peanuts are a must! Other people? Not so much. Why complicate things when he’s happy alone? Then one day the apartment board, a vexing trio of authority, rings his doorbell. And Lucas’s solitude takes a startling hike. They demand to see his frying pan. Someone left one next to the recycling room overnight, and instead of removing the errant object, as Lucas suggests, they insist on finding the guilty party. But their plan backfires. Colossally.

Who is Audrey Hoedemaker? It's a question her sister Maureen has heard more times than she can count, and she doesn't know what the short answer would be. Little sister, troubled teen, backpacker, musical theatre coach, con artist, childcare worker. Murderer. A tragic, traumatic childhood casts a long shadow on the Hoedemaker sisters. Maureen has worked hard to move beyond the violence of the past and build a good, honest life for herself. Audrey, however, just can't seem to do the same, careening from one state of chaos to another.
