Telling tales / Ann Cleeves ; read by Janine Birkett.

They thought she was a murderer. But now she's a victim. Ten years ago, 15-year-old Abigail Mantel was murdered, her cold body discovered lying in a ditch. Her father's girlfriend was found guilty of the crime. Now, evidence has emerged that proves her innocence and means that Abigail's killer still roams free. Abigail's best friend at the time of the murder has now returned to the East Yorkshire village of Elvet to raise her young family. Shocked by the new revelations, she begins to realise that she didn't know her friend as well as she thought. Detective Inspector Vera Stanhope is tasked with uncovering the truth and, as her new inquiries stoke up past secrets the villagers will lie to protect, she must find out which lies will bring her to the killer.

Ladies' rest and writing room / Kim Kelly ; read by Caroline Lee.

Christmastime, 1922. Sydney is at last waking from the nightmare of the Great War, and rekindled hope brings a burst of new energy to the city. Dotty Bluebrook does not share the shift in mood. Drifting through her rich-girl routine of shopping and social engagements, she is secretly mourning the loss of a forbidden lover who went off to fight and never returned. He's been missing in action for four long years - and she's losing her mind. Clarinda Littlemore is grieving losses of a more concrete kind. Her beloved father and brothers are unquestionably dead - leaving her and her mother in poverty. Taking a job in the Ladies' Rest and Writing Room of an elegant department store, Clarinda is craving a life beyond filling inkpots and replenishing stationery supplies. One hot summer morning, when Dotty sweeps into the rose-pink haven of the writing room to pen a letter to her non-existent man, Clarinda watches her, and a recognition flares with resentment at her privilege. But soon she senses that Dotty's in some desperate trouble of her own and, with recognition ever deepening, Clarinda takes a chance to rescue them both.

The teacher's secret / Lauren North ; read by Emma Woods.

It's only been a week, but the bright little faces at the picture-perfect school I've stepped into have captured my heart. Their big doe eyes, their paint-covered fingers and clinging hugs. They've been through so much, with their favourite teacher and classmate still missing. I'm doing all I can to help them adjust, but I can't avoid the swirling rumours that say Cate Walker's charismatic husband, Oliver - our headteacher - is involved in her disappearance. The thought makes me shudder. But the more I find out about Cate, the more I wonder if she was also hiding a terrible secret. I'm determined to uncover the truth about what really happened. I have to protect these other innocent children from the same fate - it's my duty as their teacher. That is, until an anonymous note turns up threatening me if I don't stop looking. Until my home is broken into while I sleep. I know the longer I stay here, the more danger I'm in. But whoever's trying to scare me doesn't know who I am - or why I'm really here. Or just how far I'll go to protect the people I love.

As Searston's new owner, he won't stand for anything less than victory in the Premier League, despite the odds being stacked against him. With help from the club's ravishing and adorable secretary, Tember West, Rupert sets out to mastermind Searston's rise to the top, starting with taking charge of the players - much to the fury of Searston's manager.

The whip / Catherine Cookson; read by Colleen Prendergast.

Someone had once told Emma Molinero, the daughter of an itinerant carnival performer, that she was made for trouble. Her earliest memories were of life with a travelling show - part fair and part circus - that toured the shires at the dawn of the Victorian era. But at the age of seven she found herself an orphan who, in accordance with her Spanish father's dying wishes, must now leave the warm and friendly community to live with an unknown English grandmother far to the north in County Durham. With her she took the whips and knives used with such dexterity by her father for his act and for which she had an inherited skill: a strange legacy that would make her a figure of mysterious but commanding fascination to the villagers and ultimately play a significant part in shaping Emma's destiny.

The dog sitter detective takes the lead / Antony Johnston; read by Nicolette McKenzie.

Gwinny Tuffel is preparing for her first acting role in a decade in the West End, but she is dog-sitting on the side to keep the wolf from the door. So, when ageing rock star Crash Double needs help with his Border Collie, she jumps at the chance. After all, looking after the charming Ace on Crash's Little Venice houseboat shouldn't be an onerous task. But that's before the singer's dead body surfaces during the annual Canal Carnival festivities. While the police dismiss the death as an accident, Gwinny suspects murder most foul. With a medley of suspects and some far-fetched motives to make heads or tails of, it is up to Gwinny, with Ace's on-the-ground knowledge, to make sure the killer faces the music.

Blotto, Twinks and the phantom skiers / Simon Brett; read by Simon Brett.

Blotto and Twinks are off on another adventure - and this time they're bound for the Swiss village of Luzvimmen, where Blotto participates in racing the prestigious Croissant Run, though someone seems determined to sabotage his chances. Twinks, on the other hand, is on a mission to rescue her friend's sister from a sinister finishing school - the Convent of the Sacred Icicle. Once inside, Twinks is threatened by an elderly nun who shows her a secret glacier in which the Phantom Skiers are entombed... awaiting resurrection so they can wreak vengeance on people who are too curious... like Blotto and Twinks. Meanwhile, up at Schloss Luzvimmen, the crazed Count von Strapp is set on global domination via a deadly arsenal of Swiss cheese hardware he's planning to unleash on the world... Yes, everything's much as usual in the world of Blotto and Twinks.
