Dashiell Hammett is universally regarded as one of the finest American writers of "hard boiled" detective fiction and his short stories and novels have been hailed as some of the best mystery stories ever written. Hammett would doubtless have gone down in literary history simply for his creation of the detective Sam Spade ("The Maltese Falcon") as well as Nick and Nora Charles ("The Thin Man" series), but he is also the creator of another of the most popular detectives in the genre: the nameless private investigator known as the Continental Op, who appears in dozens of his stories.

The First World War is over. Eric Vernon is on the cusp of adulthood.

I Hear U: A Memoir of Recovery and Reckoning is the second book in The Life After Trilogy, a deeply human exploration of what comes after survival. Following the near-death medical crisis chronicled in I See U, this memoir moves beyond the ICU and into the long, unspoken aftermath—where healing is uneven, silence is heavy, and survival no longer feels like victory. Through intimate reflection and unflinching honesty, Michael Paul Patrick examines Post-Intensive Care Syndrome (PICS), medical trauma, survivor's guilt, and the quiet unraveling that often follows discharge.

Life moves too fast for us to see how it flows most of the time. As the days go by, the same routes become familiar, and you only pay attention to things that are clear, important, or pressing. Some places are still not clear, like empty rooms, quiet corners, and streets that aren't being used. Shadows also show up when the light doesn't reach all the way. Most of the time, people avoid, ignore, or dismiss these places as not important. We might learn a lot from them if we take the time to look at them.

Life isn't always a big deal. When they say something, they don't make a lot of noise or drama. It's not clear when they will start or end. They could show up without making a sound. Of being aware that one has been careful. In a careful way, not wrongly or pointlessly. Thought about. Took care of. Held. Not okaying it. Life may look like it's going on around you for years. Each day has a set plan. People choose what to do because they have to, not because they want to. People talk about lies that are only partly true.

What if the real power of a dream isn’t in having it—but in following it? In The Following, dream journalist DJ Dreamy (Nicholas Sargent) invites listeners into a living laboratory of reflection and growth. This curated collection pairs vivid dreams with the journal entries that followed—sometimes written the same day, sometimes revisited days later as insight deepened and patterns emerged. Rather than treating dreams as fleeting nighttime stories, this audiobook explores what happens when you stay with them, question them, and allow their symbolism to influence your waking life.
