The Midnight Bargain
Summary
From the beloved World Fantasy Award-winning author of Witchmark comes a sweeping, romantic new fantasy set in a world reminiscent of Regency England, where women's magic is taken from them when they marry. A sorceress must balance her desire to become the first great female magician against her duty to her family. Beatrice Clayborn is a sorceress who practices magic in secret, terrified of the day she will be locked into a marital collar that will cut off her powers to protect her unborn children. She dreams of becoming a full-fledged Magus and pursuing magic as her calling as men do, but her family has staked everything to equip her for Bargaining Season, when young men and women of means descend upon the city to negotiate the best marriages. The Clayborns are in severe debt, and only she can save them, by securing an advantageous match before their creditors come calling. In a stroke of luck, Beatrice finds a grimoire that contains the key to becoming a Magus, but before she can purchase it, a rival sorceress swindles the book right out of her hands. Beatrice summons a spirit to help her get it back, but her new ally exacts a price: Beatrice's first kiss...with her adversary's brother, the handsome, compassionate, and fabulously wealthy Ianthe Lavan. The more Beatrice is entangled with the Lavan siblings, the harder her decision becomes: If she casts the spell to become a Magus, she will devastate her family and lose the only man to ever see her for who she is; but if she marries - even for love - she will sacrifice her magic, her identity, and her dreams. But how can she choose just one, knowing she will forever regret the path not taken?

Witchmark. Die Spur der Toten
Summary
Miles Singer ist Arzt und er ist auf der Flucht vor seiner Vergangenheit. Eines Tages wird er zu einem Notfall gerufen. Als Miles den Sterbenden untersucht, stellt er mit Erschrecken fest, dass dieser die Aura einer Hexe hat. Aber noch schlimmer, der Vergiftete hat erkannt, dass auch Miles das Hexenmal trägt. Die Geschicke Aelands werden von den adligen Sturmsängern bestimmt. Ihre legitimierte Magie hat dem Land unvorstellbaren Fortschritt gebracht, es aber auch in einen fürchterlichen Krieg gestürzt. Die Soldaten kommen völlig verändert aus dem Krieg zurück. Miles Singer ist Arzt. Um den zurückkehrenden Soldaten zu helfen, kann er seine magischen Fähigkeiten nur heimlich einsetzen. Kämen sie ans Licht, würde er in einem Asylum eingesperrt. Als Miles zu einem Sterbenden gerufen wird, der wohl vergiftet wurde, bleibt ihm keine Wahl: Zusammen mit einem schönen Amartine, der zwischen der Welt und dem Totenreich wechseln kann, versucht er den Mordfall aufzuklären. Hinter all dem verbirgt sich aber ein Geheimnis, dessen Abgründigkeit kaum abzusehen ist: Wohin sind die Seelen der Gefallenen verschwunden? >> Diese ungekürzte Hörbuch-Fassung genießt du exklusiv nur bei Audible.
