Sorry, but this is the first I've heard of them. I did some research and found a few comments over at reddit; one con and one pro.

Is there a catalog that I'm missing? Or do they expect me to download the app just to see what they've got?

If you've got the GasBuddy app check your associated email, I got an offer to get a free Audible credit for $0.95 and 4 free quarterly staff chosen audible books and $10 in "GasBack" deducted from my next fill up. I was able to get the cheap Audible credit without doing anything with the GasBack program. I also recently cancelled my Audible promo membership, so this was a great surprise!

Go Find: My Journey to Find the Lost—and Myself

Somewhere between hunting for gold in Latin America as a geologist and getting married to a new husband, thirty-three-year-old Susan Purvis loses her way.

Susan comes to believe that a puppy and working on ski patrol at the last great ski town in Colorado will improve her life. When she learns about avalanches that bury people without warning, she challenges herself: “What if I teach a dog to save lives?” This quest propels her to train the best possible search dog, vowing to never leave anyone behind.

With no clue how to care for a houseplant, let alone a dog, she chooses a five-week-old Labrador retriever, Tasha. With the face of a baby bear and the temperament of an NFL linebacker, Tasha constantly tests Susan’s determination to transform her into a rescue dog. Susan and Tasha jockey for alpha position as they pursue certification in avalanche, water, and wilderness recovery. Susan eventually learns to truly communicate with Tasha by seeing the world through her dog’s nose.

As the first female team in a male-dominated search-and-rescue community, they face resistance at every turn. They won’t get paid even a bag of kibble for their efforts, yet they launch dozens of missions to rescue the missing or recover the remains of victims of nature and crime.

Training with Tasha in the field to find, recover, and rescue the lost became Susan’s passion. But it was also her circumstance—she was in many ways as lost as anyone she ever pulled out of an avalanche or found huddled in the woods. “Lostness” doesn’t only apply to losing the trail. People can get lost in a relationship, a business, or a life. Susan was convinced that only happened to other people, until Tasha and a life in the mountains taught her otherwise.

Not that particular one. But I'm almost certain that I have seen one or more similar audiobook listening libraries advertised. And, I'm almost certain that the price was the same--$9.99/month. I'll probably run across it/them again; if I do, I'll post that information.

Yes, as someone mentioned above, it would be nice to know what audiobooks [and how many of them, G] are in their catalog. If they don't mention it, that is a red flag to me.
