About this listen
THE PROMISE is an intense, fast-paced and gripping Scandinavian thriller told in four parts.
In Herstedvester Prison sits a frustrated and restless Nina with her young protégée, Gabriela. They’re both on the run from an ominous dark past that’s constantly on their heels. When Nina is released on parole, she has difficulty enjoying her newfound freedom. Firstly, because she has to leave the defenseless Gabriela in prison, and secondly, because Nina’s new legal guardian definitely isn’t to her liking ... Steffen Jacobsen’s debut novel The Passenger (Passageren in Danish) came out in 2008, but his big break came in 2013 with Trophy. This was the first in his series of suspense novels about partners Michael Sander and Lene Jensen, the latest of which is Ghostwriter. Jacobsen’s novels have been published throughout Europe, the USA, Japan, China and Taiwan, with foreign reviewers comparing him to John le Carré, Frederick Forsyth, Jo Nesbo and Jussi Alder-Olsen. In addition, film rights to several of his books have also been sold.

The death of Judd Foxman's father marks the first time that the entire Foxman family - including Judd's mother, brothers, and sister - have been together in years.

Maximoff Hale is a force of nature. A ship unwilling to be steered. Headstrong, resilient, and wholly responsible - the 22-year-old alpha billionaire can handle his unconventional life. Born into one of the most famous families in the country, his celebrity status began at birth. He is certified American royalty. When he's assigned a new 24/7 bodyguard, he comes face-to-face with the worst case scenario: being attached to the tattooed, MMA-trained, Yale graduate who's known for "going rogue" in the security team - and who fills 1/3 of Maximoff's sexual fantasies.

Celeste Price is an eighth-grade English teacher in suburban Tampa. But Celeste's devotion lies elsewhere. She has a singular sexual obsession: 14-year-old boys. In slaking her sexual thirst, Celeste Price is remorseless and deviously free of hesitation, a monstress driven by pure motivation. She deceives everyone, and cares nothing for anyone or anything but her own pleasure. With crackling, rampantly unadulterated prose, Tampa is a grand, uncompromising, seriocomic examination of want and a scorching literary debut.

Now two of his sensational early novels have been combined in a single volume—two gritty and mesmerizing masterworks of suspense featuring the private eye duo of Patrick Kenzie and Angela Gennaro.

Enemies turn to lovers in this bad boy billionaire romance with a twist. I had a plan. Finish law school. Start a job. Stay away from men like Brandon Sterling. Cocky, overbearing, and richer than the Earth, he thinks the world belongs to him, and that includes me. Yeah, no. Think again. It doesn't matter that his blue eyes look straight into my soul, or that his touch melts my icy reserve. It doesn't even matter that past all that swagger, there's a beautiful, damaged man who has so much to offer beyond private planes and jewelry boxes. But I had a plan: no falling in love.
