The Invisible Wall A Love Story That Broke Barriers – Harry Bernstein

Harry Bernsteins’ childhood in the industrial north of England in the shadow of the First World War is one of hardship and hostility. His brutish father spends what little he earns at the tailoring shop on drink, while his devoted mother survives on her dreams: that new shoes might secure Harry’s admission to a fancy school; that her daughter might marry the local rabbi; that one day they might all escape this grinding poverty for the paradise of America.
Unabridged.
Read by Sam Kelly.

The Yorkshire Ripper – The Chilling True Story Of Peter Sutcliffe – Martin Fido


The Yorkshire Ripper – The Chilling True Story Of Peter Sutcliffe – Martin Fido
In the late 1970s, a series of women were brutally murdered in and around Leeds and Bradford. Someone seemed to be emulating ‘Jack The Ripper’, the infamous murderer of prostitutes in Londond’s East End almost a century earlier.
When the ‘Yorkshire Ripper’ extended his range of targets to women who were not prostitutes, public anxiety reached fever pitch. 300 officers, 12500 statements and hundreds of interviews with potential suspects – including five with Peter Sutcliffe himself – failed to capture the real murderer.
These tapes tell the true story of the hunt for the ‘Yorkshire Ripper’

Buckley Jr, William F. - Blackford Oakes 05 - The Story of Henri Tod

The Story of Henri Tod (1984)
(A book in the Blackford Oakes series)
A novel by William F Buckley Jr

Berlin, pre-wall. Kruschev gives President Kennedy an ultimatum. Kennedy stalls, but directs the CIA to contact a secret group of German dissidents: the Bruderschaft.

Blackford Oakes, senior agent and the author's alter ego, leads the charge. While Kennedy confers with DeGaulle, and Macmillan, Oakes penetrates the Bruderschaft.

"Writing about high noon in the cold war, Buckley has created characters he cares about, as you will, in a novel of style and substance, wit and tragedy, seriousness and surprise." (B-O-T Editorial Review Board)


Product Description

It is 1961 in Berlin, and the Cold War is at its most chilling. Suave CIA agent Blackford Oakes has come to investigate.

Brilliant, charismatic, and with a tragic past, Henri Tod is head of Bruderschaft, the underground anti-Communist organization. Oakes will need his help in cracking the dark plots the Eastern bloc powers are hatching. And the KGB have found the one chink in Tod's armor.
