The Clue of the Twisted Candle by Edgar Wallace audiobook.

Genre: mystery

Edgar Wallace's The Clue of the Twisted Candle plunges celebrated mystery novelist John Lexman into a case far stranger than anything he has ever plotted on the page. Struggling with money worries, Lexman is pushed into the orbit of a glamorous, dangerous underworld figure, Remington Kara, and a relentless creditor whose threats turn one ugly confrontation into a catastrophe. Before Lexman can understand how completely he has been maneuvered, he is arrested, convicted, and sent to prison, while his devoted wife, Grace, is left to face the rumors and the fallout alone. Lexman's closest friend, Thomas X. Meredith, a powerful figure at Scotland Yard, refuses to believe the verdict and quietly starts pulling at the loose threads the courts ignored. But when Lexman vanishes from custody and the trail runs cold, Meredith is forced to widen his hunt into London's shadowed networks of blackmail, false identities, and carefully staged alibis. Years later, a sensational locked-room killing and one unsettling detail, a strangely twisted candle, bring the past roaring back and set Meredith on a race to expose the scheme before it claims another victim.

Tarzan of the Apes by Edgar Rice Burroughs audiobook.

Genre: adventure

After a mutiny strands English aristocrats John and Alice Clayton on the West African coast, they vanish into a world ruled by dense jungle, hungry predators, and the fierce great apes who call it home. Their infant son survives against impossible odds, raised among the tribe as an outsider who must learn to fight, hunt, and belong. He grows into a powerful, sharp-minded figure the apes name Tarzan, torn between the instincts that kept him alive and a restless curiosity awakened by strange relics from the cabin where his parents once lived. As he teaches himself to read from abandoned books and explores the boundaries of his territory, Tarzan begins to sense that he is not what his adoptive family believes him to be. When explorers and strangers arrive from the wider world, the jungle's balance is shattered, forcing Tarzan to choose where his loyalties lie and what kind of man he will become. Edgar Rice Burroughs blends pulp excitement with questions of identity, civilization, and the thin line between nature and nurture in a swift, atmospheric classic.

The Enchanted Castle by Edith Nesbit audiobook.

Genre: fantasy

When three siblings - Jerry, Jimmy, and Kathy - escape their governess for a summer afternoon, they wander into the grounds of an old estate and discover a hidden passage into what seems to be a sleeping fairy tale: a neglected garden, a ruined castle, and the promise of real magic. Inside, they meet Mabel, a practical but lonely girl with an imagination as fierce as any spell, and together they stumble upon a ring that can make wishes come true - though never quite in the way they expect. As the children test the limits of enchantment, everyday squabbles and loyalties collide with sudden wonders: statues that do not stay still, identities that slip like costumes, and adventures that spill beyond the garden walls. But magic, they soon learn, has rules of its own, and each wish carries consequences that threaten friendships, invite misunderstanding, and draw the children deeper into a mystery surrounding the castle itself. Warm, witty, and brimming with Edwardian charm, Edith Nesbit's classic follows young heroes who must rely on courage, honesty, and one another to find their way through a world where the impossible keeps becoming real.
