May 24, 2011January 19, 2011 by KND

Kindle readers have already made Maryland lawyer Stephanie Ann “Sam” McRae one of the hottest hard-boiled women in the Kindle Store by sending Debbie Mack’s debut novel Identity Crisis — just 99 cents today! — soaring up the bestseller lists. Now Mack is back, and so is “Sam” McRae, in this free sample of the sequel Least Wanted, our Kindle Nation eBook of the Day.

Here’s the set-up:

Maryland lawyer Stephanie Ann “Sam” McRae has two tough cases that quickly turn worse, when both clients—a poor black girl and a white, middle-class man—are accused of murder.

Sam’s inquiries into the cases lead her to Washington, DC’s suburban ghettos where she discovers an odd link between them: the seamy world of girl gangs and computer pornography.

The stakes rise considerably as more people die at the hands of a maniacal killer who’ll do anything to keep Sam from learning the truth. Sam races to clear her clients before she becomes the next victim.

Reviews and recommendations:

“LEAST WANTED is a brave, heartbreaking, and thrilling book with a complex plot that takes attorney Sam McRae on a dizzying tour of several circles of urban hell, against a backdrop of white-collar crime. I loved it, and I admire Mack for writing it without flinching or suggesting easy answers. It’s a sequel that outdoes IDENTITY CRISIS and holds the promise of a great series.” — Timothy Hallinan, author of THE QUEEN OF PATPONG and CRASHED

“In LEAST WANTED, Debbi Mack serves up a solid mystery plot wired together with high octane suspense. — Austin S. Camacho, author of the Hannibal Jones mystery series

“Sam McRae is back and as brash as ever, with a colorful cast, a relentless plot, and enough twists to leave you breathless. Debbi Mack has carved her own niche in the mystery pantheon.” — Scott Nicholson, author of DISINTEGRATION

“LEAST WANTED hooks you from the start and never lets go. A fascinating and absorbing mystery.” — Simon Wood, author of LOWLIFES

“Fast-paced and brimming with dark, twisting plot turns, LEAST WANTED will keep crime and mystery buffs off balance and guessing until the very end.” — J.T. Cummins, author of COBBLESTONES

Help Wanted: Sexy, Sophisticated Spy — Read a free sample of J.C. Phelps’ Color Me Grey, our Kindle Nation eBook of the Day, right in your browser!

May 24, 2011January 17, 2011 by KND

Meet Alexis Stanton, a petite woman with a yen for adventure. She has just taken a job that is literally to die for….

Here’s the set-up for J.C. Phelps Color Me Grey (Book One of the Alexis Stanton Chronicles) — NOW JUST 99 CENTS IN THE KINDLE STORE!

Alexis Stanton grew up as a tomboy wishing she could have all the adventures boys could have. She has since decided that being a boy instead of a girl has its advantages, but being a woman is much, much better.

Raised in a family with money, she was able to pick and choose her education. She had been schooled in everything from being a lady to courses with Special Forces instructors. Her desire for adventure and her boredom with her current employment and a strange ‘HELP WANTED’ ad causes her to quit. She finds that job she could “just die for”… and it looks like she just might!

From a review:

J.C. Phelps keeps the action and suspense high and manages to hint at romance just enough to make the characters exceptionally intriguing. I loved Alexis Stanton as the heroine – she’s tough but also smart and sensitive; larger than life but still easy to relate to.

The book was well written with a perfect pace, and as all my favorite series entries do, it tells a succinct story while still keeping readers eager for its sequels. There’s nothing Grey about whether or not Phelps knows how to write – clear as black and white, she is a wonderful storyteller and an awesome author to check out! Reviewer L. Guerrero.

About the Author:

J.C. Phelps has been writing since she can remember. But The Alexis Stanton Chronicles have been the most enjoyable works she’s written. Color Me Grey, the first book in the series, introduces the characters she has come to love. Grey Shades of Grey and Reflections of Grey continue with the same characters and were equally as fun to write.

Readers are invited to think up the title for the fourth book in the Alexis Stanton series at the author’s blog.

Madness and Murder in San Francisco in Jenny Hilborne’s Kindle Nation eBook of the Day, and here’s a free sample on us!

May 30, 2011January 12, 2011 by KND

There is a murderous fiend wandering among the familiar San Francisco landmarks in Madness and Murder, and debut mystery novelist Jenny Hilborne is not shy about telling you what he has done to others … or what he intends to do.

Here’s the set-up:

Frustrated by the rising body count and lack of evidence, veteran homicide detective, Mac Jackson, questions his own ethics when he risks the life of an innocent young woman to trap a cunning and sadistic serial killer.

Known for his uncanny precision with a hunch, he is all too aware that, this time, the stakes are much higher if his gamble fails to pay off.

Jessica Croft, withdrawn, vulnerable, and emotionally scarred, moves from Sacramento to begin a new life in San Francisco with her twin brother, Judd.

Ninety miles from the sinister, shameful secrets of her past, and the madness that tore their family apart, she hopes to find tranquility, maybe even love.

However, her chance for happiness is short-lived when she suddenly finds herself the target of a relentless madman with a deadly agenda. Loath to continue living a life of fear, Jessica

tells no one when she takes a bold risk to draw him out; dangerously unaware of the trap he has already set for her.

Now nothing may be able to save her except the accuracy of a hunch.

About the Author:

The second of four daughters, Jenny Hilborne was born and raised in Wiltshire, South West England, and relocated to Southern California in 1997.

Jenny is a member of Wolfwriters, a group of professional writers who meet bi-monthly in Northern San Diego. She is also a member of Sisters in Crime. Madness and Murder is her first novel.

Can Rett learn to cope with being saddled with a dimwitted alien mindforce–and keep herself and her platoon alive at the same time? Find out in our Kindle Nation eBook of the Day, T.M. Roy’s Convergence, right in your browser!

May 30, 2011January 11, 2011 by KND

When the going gets tough…the tough deal with it. Or maybe not…

Here’s the set-up for Convergence by T.M. Roy:

Rett, a battle-weary soldier from Nyorfias, needs imagination. Pam, an imaginative dreamer from Earth, needs inspiration. Unknown to both women, a fledgling Guardian of Balance needs them both in a desperate stratagem to protect the very existence of the two-planet Nyorfian system, which is not only under attack from physical entities, but from the dark force that inspires them.

Pam’s first ten minutes on Nyorfias, however, just about flushes Rett’s military career down the nearest toilet. Can Rett learn to cope with being saddled with a dimwitted alien mindforce–and keep herself and her platoon alive at the same time?

CONVERGENCE is Book One in a three part epic adventure where the fate of an entire planetary system hangs in the balance.

GRAVITY (Book 2) is now available for Kindle.
STRATAGEM (Book 3) due summer 2011.

Sergeant Rett of the Nyorfian Special Forces is in the fight of her life, for herself and her worlds. She doesn’t realize she’s the key Player in a local battle of a Game of universal scope: the struggle of the Guardians of Balance to maintain a healthy equilibrium between evil and good, darkness and light.

The neophyte Guardian for Nyorfias, Pheasyce, faces an ancient and powerful force of Dark, and must risk all in a dangerous and unique strategem, one that uses Rett as the focus. Arranging the convergence between the key Player and an imaginative dreamer from another world could be the best tactic ever.

That is, as long as Pam, who thinks this is all a dream, doesn’t get Rett killed first. And as long as Rett can accept this dimwitted alien mindforce… from some planet called Earth.
