But that's not what we want. I may lay in bed an indeterminate amount
of time before I go to sleep. It might be 10 minutes or two hours.
Unlike music, it's not Ok for the audio book to keep droning on until
some fixed-interval timer expires. The audio book should stop playing
as soon as I get sleepy enough to not be paying attention. Holding a
switch on until one gets sleepy enough to relax the grip works very
well.

Interrupting the power in "car mode" might be the easiest way to do
it, as one can have a remote switch without a lot of wiring or effort.
