Acerca de esta escucha
A tale of adventure, discovery, and uneasy romance.
1989. The Berlin Wall has just fallen and communism is crumbling throughout Eastern Europe. An American businessman, alone in Romania, tumbles into a world of political turmoil, where double dealing tyrants and enforcers struggle to maintain their ruthless grip…and where a woman of surprising character and simple beauty ignites in him equal parts of desperation and hope.
Follow Robb and Corina’s flight, pursued by the head of the feared Securitate, through a land and people strained to the breaking point by Nicolae and Elena Ceausescu, two of the world’s darkest despots.

It is 1936, and Nancy Wake is an intrepid Australian expat living in Paris who has bluffed her way into a reporting job for Hearst newspaper when she meets the wealthy French industrialist Henri Fiocca. No sooner does Henri sweep Nancy off her feet and convince her to become Mrs. Fiocca than the Germans invade France and she takes yet another name: a code name. As Lucienne Carlier, Nancy smuggles people and documents across the border and earns a new nickname from the Gestapo for her remarkable ability to evade capture: The White Mouse.

In the beginning, the gods destroyed the world. Five hundred years later, things haven’t gotten much better for humans. The demigods that were left behind to guard over humanity have been using them as fodder for an endless civil war between themselves, and the humans just go on dutifully slaughtering each other, battle after battle. It’s not all bad, though. Perry McGown makes his living off those bloody, stinking battlefields. He works on a crew that reclaims all the spent shell casings. But if anyone found out that he was a deserter from the war, he’d be executed for heresy.
