How far would you go?”

Please note: The author and his publisher will be donating 25 percent of all proceeds to Parents of Murdered Children (POMC) for all of April and May.



Here’s the set-up:

Paul Kelly is a good man: a firefighter and paramedic facing death and danger daily, risking his own safety for the sake of strangers. Paul has seen tragedy a thousand times, but it has never been his own. Until now… 

A shocking crime. A loved one, brutally murdered. Paul’s life is suddenly invaded by police, reporters, the harsh glare of spotlights on a family’s private sorrow. The killer shows no sorrow, no remorse – a teen sociopath whose dead eyes stare in sullen silence. Paul does not want blood or vengeance. He wants to know why.

Paul Kelly was a good man. But his obsession is drawing him into the darkest depths of the human soul. Where a terrible truth lurks in the shadows of lies. And a price must be paid to answer…


 

What the Reviewers Say
“In A QUESTION OF WILL, Craig Spector… has achieved a mature, hard-won narrative authority that will be deeply gratifying to all, as well as to the many thousands of readers who have enjoyed his earlier work. The novel moves its protagonist from believable heroism into an equally convincing moral darkness terrible to behold, and it carries us with it every step along the way. This is what horror wants to be when it grows up, a vision of tragic inevitability rooted in character, ruthless and inexorably unfolding, yet shot through with the possibility of grace.”
–Peter Straub 

“Spector (THE LIGHT AT THE END) is a strong writer who convincingly re-creates the dark, often gruesome world of paramedics and firefighters. Most impressive is his exploration into Paul’s character and how ordinary people cope with extraordinary grief and horror. Not for the faint of heart, Spector’s latest is for lovers of the best psychological thrillers, along the lines of Ruth Rendell’s.”
–Publishers Weekly

A powerful novel of one man’s search for an answer after a loved one is brutally murdered. The question is why? Filled with heartbreak and horror, an unflinching trip into the heart of darkness. Highest recommendation. “
–Recluse

Kindle Nation Daily Free Book Alert, Friday, April 22: Four Brand New Freebies, plus … Paul Levine’s Best “Jake Lassiter” Mystery Yet: Flesh & Bones (Today’s Sponsor)

Only a very lucky few of us will have the opportunity to spend this Summer touring Europe, but if there’s any chance you might be among that elect any time soon, it’s an absolute must that you pick up the new HSA travel guide that sits with three other brand new selections atop this morning’s latest additions to our 250+ Free Book Alert listings….


But first, a word from … Today’s Sponsor

A major fave among Kindle Nation readers, the award-winning author Paul Levine is back with what he promises is his “best Jake Lassiter novel” to date. This time Lassiter’s new client literally tumbles into his lap with the vapors just seconds after having shot the guy next to him – who turns out to be her father. And that’s just for starters…

“Lively entertainment…Jake Lassiter is attractive, funny, savvy, and brave.”

From Wes Lukowsky of Booklist:
Pro football player turned lawyer Jake Lassiter is savoring a drink at a South Beach bar when a beautiful young woman shoots the man on the next bar stool and faints in Lassiter’s arms. It’s one way to get clients, he figures. The woman, Chrissy Bernhardt, is charged with the first-degree murder of her father, whom Chrissy believes abused her as a child. Lassiter takes the case, which is complicated by the fact that Chrissy’s repressed memories of her father’s abuse have been “unlocked” with the help of a therapist who turns out to be her late mother’s former lover. The seventh Lassiter novel continues the series’ steady improvement. Lassiter is smart, tough, funny, and very human. He’s coming on fast as one of the most entertaining series characters in contemporary crime fiction. 

What the Reviewers Say
“Mystery writing at its very, very best.” 
Larry King about the Lassiter series in USA TODAY

“[Lassiter has] a lot more charisma than Perry Mason ever did.” 
–The Miami Herald

THE “FLESH & BONES” BACKSTORY     
By Paul Levine  

Flesh and Bones Start Page

Recovered Memories: Real, Imagined…or Fake? 
The idea for “Flesh & Bones” came from a real murder case involving the controversial notion of repressed memory syndrome. 
Here’s how it started.  A 29-year-old California woman reported to police that she suddenly remembered seeing her father rape and kill a schoolmate twenty years earlier.  Were the memories real?  Or dreams?  Or outright fabrications? 
The D.A. thought they were real.  And so did the jury which heard the case of the previously unsolved child killing.  The father was sentenced to life in prison and served seven years before a federal court determined that the daughter’s testimony had been tainted by hypnotic therapy. 
Out of that grew my notion of a troubled young model, Chrissy Bernhardt, who walks into a Miami Beach bar and shoots her father in front of dozens of witnesses…including linebacker-turned-lawyer Jake Lassiter. Chrissy claims that, under hypnotic regression therapy, she recovered memories repressed long ago: her father’s sexual abuse. 
As I did while researching the book, Lassiter interviews a skeptical psychiatrist who tells him that memories are “malleable” by therapists. 
“We can thank Freud for the theory that all our experiences are stored away somewhere in the brain, just waiting to be recovered by therapy,” Dr. Santiago said.  “A huge number of his patients seemed to recall terrible memories of childhood incest.  Initially, Freud accepted the stories as true.  Later, he concluded they were ‘screen memories,’ fantasies hiding primitive wishes.  Others believe they’re just false memories.” 
“So what’s the truth?” I asked. 
“Oh, memories may be repressed and then recovered, but does that make them true?  I’m sure you remember many events in your life that are absolutely false.” 
“I don’t get it.  If I remember them, they’re true.” 
“Not necessarily.  You may try to store memories like a librarian shelving books.  But each of us constructs a personal myth about what we think is true.  We may exaggerate.  Good times in the past become even better, hard times even worse.  Individuals who were bad become outright demons.  And some of our memories might simply be dreams that never took place at all.” 
Lassiter soon discovers that his client’s shrink might have his own motive for wanting Chrissy’s father dead.  So might her brother, for purely financial reasons.  All of that plays out against the very real debate about the science of the mind. Are the memories dug out of the subconscious through hypnosis real or imagined?  
The psychiatrist tells Lassiter:  “Memory suppression is hardly unknown.  In one study, researchers found that thirty-eight percent of adult women who had been treated for sexual abuse as children had no memories of the incidents.  The difficulty is to recover the memories without contamination by post-event occurrences or suggestions by therapists, whether innocent or malevolent.” 
That’s the heart of “Flesh & Bones”and every murder trial.  Separating the innocent from the malevolent.

But the kidnappings are not random. The perpetrators are targeting the sons and daughters of the planet’s security force. Their goal is to create chaos on a global scale in order for their illegal drug trade to flourish. The children are merely pawns in an intergalactic game. Until they take Shamira’s brother, David..”

Fans of Patricia Highsmith and Scott Smith, take note”



Here’s the set-up:

When his knee shatters on the playing field, Charlie Marston is plunged into turmoil. The fallen college superstar joins the family winemaking business, but working alongside his parents is not the future he had planned. He escapes work whenever he can and soon finds a new friend named Randy Black. Randy is part stunt-pilot, part Casanova, and part drunken Pied Piper. Randy introduces Charlie to Deirdre Deudon, the provocative wife of a French farmer. They come together in an ill-conceived stunt that explodes into consequences that chase Charlie and Randy back home to Massachusetts and change Deirdre’s life forever. The after-effects of this tragic mistake bind the three of them together and threaten everything they hold dear. 

This is book 1 of 3 in the Randy Black series. It is followed by A Demon Awaits and Gretchen Greene.


What the Reviewers Say
“The story kept me on the edge of my seat, a page turner for sure, but I especially enjoyed reading as Charlie’s character grows in each scene of adversity. I actually feel like I witnessed Charlie taking the control in his life back, and that was an empowering feeling.”
–Destiny Booze, Romantic Suspense/Thriller Author

“The plotting of this book is incredibly involved and detailed, with writing that is appropriately descriptive yet fast-paced… He develops his characters masterfully–particularly Randy Black, and what a complex individual he is. Since I was working with an e-book, I found myself sneaking peeks at it during work yesterday, continued reading it last night and had to finish it this morning. If you like thrillers, then you will definitely enjoy reading Sin & Vengeance and I bet you’ll find it hard to put down.”
–Melissa B. Owens of www.Melissas-bookshelf.com

“Charlie Marston is a likable guy who’s recently graduated from college, where he studied oenology and chemistry with a view to joining his father’s winemaking business. But lately Charlie’s been sowing his oats with a troublemaker, Randy Black, who’s exactly the sort of guy Charlie’s father doesn’t approve of: Randy is an amoral hedonist and a thrill seeker who’s almost certainly going to get Charlie in trouble if he continues to hang around with him. One night, something terrible happens, and Charlie’s life turns on a dime. Randy, he comes to understand, is a dangerous friend to have. Just how dangerous becomes increasingly clear over the next months.”
–Debra Hamel, Top 1000 Reviewer
 

About the Author

From CJ West’s publisher: CJ West is a compelling young writer with a unique voice and a talent for breathing life into even his minor characters. He paints his scenes so vividly that we were proud, but not surprised, when this work was optioned for film. West has created a work so fast-paced and a plot so dynamic that readers are too enthralled to stop and unravel the intricacies on their own. Even when readers finally believe they’ve got it all figured out, West ends with a flourish of surprises that forces readers to consider the entire work, all the way back to the opening erotic scene.

Imagine a world where your most precious inalienable rights are denied. Where individual freedom is a thing of the past. Imagine World War II without FDR …

Here’s the set-up:
It is 1939. Roosevelt is winding down his second term in the White House. The Nazis have taken Austria, and Stalin’s Red Army is systematically eliminating the Kremlin’s enemies. Europe is going to hell in a handbasket. With isolationist sentiment running high in America, and the president’s popularity at an all-time low, Hitler seizes the moment and dispatches his secret weapon: An agent named ‘Siegfried’ who conceals himself behind the mask of middle-class America. A chameleon who can change identities and personalities at will. A cold-blooded killer who will win the war for Germany.

A banker, linguist, and demolitions expert who has successfully infiltrated German intelligence, FBI Special Agent Thomas Cochrane is handpicked by Roosevelt for an impossible mission: To find Hitler’s spy before he carries out a plan that will remove the president from office at a critical moment in the century’s history. As Cochrane, with the help of British Intelligence agent Laura Worthington, circles closer to his elusive quarry, a spy with supporters in the highest levels of U.S. government readies the world stage for a final act of annihilation that will alter the tide of war–and the future of the free world–in unthinkable ways.


What the Reviewers Say 
“First rate!” –The Cleveland Plain-Dealer

“A Chiller!” –Los Angeles Times

“This 1985 espionage thriller follows FBI agent William Cochran’s efforts to stop a Nazi spy from assassinating FDR. Toss in a love affair with a British Secret Service operative and you have the makings of a page-turner. LJ’s reviewer found the book “complex in characterization, crisp in dialogue, and thorough in its background.”

–Library Journal

“First rate espionage tale, well researched and well written. The plot is absorbing, the pace is swift and the conclusion is unexpectedly devious! Noel Hynd is the equal of Follett (Jackdaws), Thayer (Pursuit), and my own personal favorite, the wonderful Jack Higgins and his exciting Eagles!!!!! Mr. Hynd, if you’re listening, how about another World War II espionage tale?”
–A Customer

Parking Enforcement Officer Gets into sticky situation”



Here’s the set-up:

RACE (Radical Association of Criminal Ethnicities) is a dangerous and violent group on the verge of creating an illegal drug.

Parking Officer Jon Rupret wants desperately to move up from handing out parking tickets. An impulsive act from his past throws him into Operation Anti-RACE—a unit set up to stop RACE. He is partnered with veteran detective, Phillip Beadsworth, a mild mannered Brit who doesn’t much like Rupret and knows more than he reveals.

Along the way Rupret encounters Mahmud Hanif, a qualified engineer, who drives a taxi to pay his bills; DJ Krash, the second best disc-jockey in the world; Cal Murray, the owner of the House of Jam, the hottest club in Toronto; and of course, his mother, a grade school teacher in Guelph, who thinks Rupret is a financial advisor working on Bay street.

RACE is a compelling mystery and a humorous look at Toronto through Jon Rupret’s eyes.


What the Reviewers Say
“This is just a great book. The main character will have you rolling with laughter and cheering for the underdog. Jon Rupret is the most honest character I’ve read in a while. This the first of three books by the author. I think they are all great, but this character is my favourite. “
–Ready to Read


“Those looking for an entertaining read need look no further. This is Qureshi’s first book. An hilarious romp through the streets of Toronto. His protagonist, Jon Rupret, as well as being an extremely likeable and engaging character, will have you laughing out loud in no time. The humour comes at you fast and relentless throughout the entire book. A delight to read.”
–Book-i-vore

“What I liked best about this novel was the authour’s use of authentic Toronto locations and characters, yes I live in Toronto. Through pithy descriptions of real life places ranging from the downtown core to the steamy suburbs, the story really came alive for me. A nicely crafted novel, I anticipate reading more by Mr. Qureshi.”
–Robert Gerard
