Marie Therese, Child of Terror: The Fate of Marie Antoinette's Daughter [Audiobook]

In December 1795, on the midnight stroke of her 17th birthday, Marie-Therese, the only surviving child of Marie Antoinette and Louis XVI, fled Paris' notorious Temple Prison. Kept in solitary confinement after her parents' brutal execution during the Terror, she had been unaware of the fate of her family, save the cries she heard of her young brother being tortured in an adjacent cell.

Waiting to be HeardWaiting to be Heard

Amanda Knox spent four years in a foreign prison for a crime she did not commit.
In the fall of 2007, the 20-year-old college coed left Seattle to study abroad in Italy, but her life was shattered when her roommate was murdered in their apartment.
After a controversial trial, Amanda was convicted and imprisoned. But in 2011, an appeals court overturned the decision and vacated the murder charge. Free at last, she returned home to the U.S., where she has remained silent, until now.

I Heard the Owl Call My NameI Heard the Owl Call My Name

I Heard the Owl Call My Name is about a young vicar and his time in an ancient Indian village during a time of cultural change. It is a journey of learning and all the small happenings that can add up to significance.

Mark Brian is sent to the village of Kingcome to serve as vicar for a parish consisting of many remote villages and logging camps in coastal British Columbia, Canada. Although he does not know it, he has been diagnosed with a fatal disease and has only two to three years to live. His bishop sends him to Kingcome in the hope that Mark will learn enough, fast enough, to be prepared to die.
