The Cheap Kindle Daily read is Enemy in Blue by Derek Blass

The genre is Thriller with a 5 star rating at only 99 Cents!

“For action, body-count and digging into the underworld of police politics – this is really a great read. However, I think the best asset of the novel is the incredible drawing of the antagonist – the evil Sergeant Shaver really shines.
Throughout the novel, this is the guy who drives the story. Shaver is persistent, tough and thoroughly without redemption. He steps off the page and into your life and you just know there’s a real life Shaver out there in the world.
The action is unending – there isn’t much time for relaxing between scenes. Blass keeps you on your toes throughout.
I’m a sucker for cop stories, anyway, but I really enjoyed this book!” –Kathy Lynn Hall (Amazon Review)

The Cheap Kindle Daily read is An Indecent Death by David Anderson

The genre is Mystery with a 5 star rating at only 99 Cents!

“An Indecent Death is an entertaining read! It features lots of interesting characters to keep you guessing on who committed the crime, plus a quirky and endearing main character (Nicholas Drumm) tasked with solving the mystery. Drumm exposes a suprisingly seamy side to the outwardly mundane world of elementary schools and their teachers. The book is fast-paced, engaging, and well worth your time!” –Morgan (Amazon Review) 

_______________________________________________________

When sexy, seventh grade teacher Paula Noonan is found murdered in a nearby park, Detective Sergeant Nicholas Drumm of the York Police Services is called in.

Drumm’s previous experience as an elementary teacher comes in handy when the investigation leads him to Paula’s school, and a host of suspects, including the school’s creepy janitor, an abusive spouse, the principal, a moody and leering fifth grade teacher and the angry and aggressive father of one of her students.

It soon becomes obvious that Paula Noonan’s provocative dress and unconventional behavior are contributing factors in her death.

Wrestling with his health, an emotional ex-girlfriend who wants to get back together with him and a self-destructive colleague, Drumm works through the lies and misdirections that are set before him to uncover the surprising truth.

An exciting and intriguing story, An Indecent Death will keep you guessing until the end.

About The Author

Life’s never dull. Between writing novels and screenplays, I’m a single parent to my daughter.
As a retired Police Officer and Detective, the only career that is as interesting to me as police work, is being a writer. Both leave you with the feeling that no day is ever the same as the one before, and it’s a good feeling.

I have always had a strong appreciation for putting words to the page and find it extremely fulfilling. In the seventh grade my English teacher pulled me privately to the side in the hallway, and said to me, “You should really consider writing as a career.” At the time I couldn’t see it happening. Who became writers? My parents were not big on having their children follow any of the arts as career paths, so pursuing a dream such as writing, seemed outlandish at the time. Each year my teachers told me the same thing, and each time I ignored the dream, even though it was something that genuinely interested me.

As a kid, walking around with my face in a book was a daily routine. I usually read three or four a week and even wrote and assembled into book form, one of my own stories about a bird named ‘Babbly’ at about age ten.

Along with writing, I run a small publishing company. Sometime soon, we will have training videos available for free on that webpage. I want to teach first time writers how to do what I have learned to do and believe strongly that knowledge should be shared.

My eldest daughter and eldest son attend college. One of my sons currently serves in our military.

We own two very small dogs, about the size of a large hand. I have debated on whether things so small should be classified as dogs. Still, in their earnest attempts in trying to intimidate people with their deafening yapping (which my daughter calls barking), they have proven their loyalty to me. It is impossible not to love them and they are family.

My ancestors on my grandfather’s side were Native Americans; Algonquin and Iroquois from the great Seneca Nation in Upstate New York. I feel a strong connection to the earth and have often wondered if it comes from my Indian blood. I am also of German, English and Irish decent.

Setting a brush to canvas is another craft I play at, with woodworking and landscaping keep me busy as well. People like me will always find themselves doing something; even while sitting; I am not the idle kind, and it’s just one more reason to write.
There will always be one more reason to write, as I am happiest when sharing my thoughts with the page.

The strongest words of advice I can offer someone who has thought of writing a book, but hasn’t yet begun, is ‘just do it!’ The only one who is really stopping you, is you. You don’t have to know it all at the start. You’ll learn more along the way and you’ll be glad you did it. To me, there’s something very freeing about creating, from a blank page, something that I can share with others.

The Cheap Kindle Daily read is 3 LIES by Helen Hanson

The genre is Thriller with a 4.5 star rating at only $2.99!

“This author has nailed the cliffhanger ending! I would read along (great suspenseful story, wonderful characters) and think, oh, I’ll finish after this chapter and then BAM! grrrrr cliffhanger – what happens next?! OK, I’ll just read a couple paragraphs into the next chapter. Ohhhh it’s a new thread of the story, and it’s so good and at the end of the chapter BAM! another cliffhanger. This story literally keeps you reading until its done.” -alchemyofscrawl (Amazon Review)

_______________________________________________________

At CIA headquarters, a young officer discovers that terrorists may have commandeered their computer systems to launch an unauthorized mission. Elsewhere, conspirators abduct nine people to manipulate the rules of their game. Two disparate ambitions — Clint Masters becomes the reluctant link in the chain of danger.

Ever since Clint’s almost ex-wife dumped him, he bobs along the Massachusetts coast in a sailboat with his black lab for company. He avoids all forms of technology, a counterintuitive effort for the burned-out founder of CatSat Laboratories. Tired of clutching the brass ring, he needed to untether, step off the corporate treadmill, and smell a flower. Fortunately, he met one, a beautiful, unspoiled woman who doesn’t treat him like a commodity. His relationship with Beth offers more promise than his marriage ever did, even if she is on dialysis for her recovering kidneys, until she disappears.

In spite of the evidence, her family refuses to admit she’s in danger. Without routine dialysis, she won’t survive. As Clint realizes that he loves Beth, damn-near ex-wife Paige sashays back into his life with disturbing news.

While the CIA young gun tracks his quarry, Clint enlists the help of two men to find Beth, a blithe Brit named Merlin, and Todd, his playboy partner-in-tech. But Clint must find Beth before her kidneys fail. And before someone unloads a bullet in his head.

About The Author

Helen Hanson writes thrillers about desperate people with a high-tech bent. Hackers. The CIA. Industry titans. Guys on sailboats. Mobsters. Their personal maelstroms pit them against unrelenting forces willing to kill. Throughout the journey, they try to find some truth, a little humor, and their humanity — from either end of the trigger. Helen directed operations for high-tech manufacturers of semiconductors, video games, software, and computers.

She is a licensed private pilot with a ticket for single-engine aircraft. Helen and her husband spent their first anniversary with their flight instructor studying for the FAA practical. If you were a passenger on a 737 trying to land at SJC in 1995, she sends her most sincere apologies. Really. Born in fly-over country, Helen has lived on both coasts, near both borders, and at several locations in between. She lettered in tennis, worked as a machinist, and saw the Clash at the San Francisco Civic Auditorium sometime in the eighties. She currently lives amid the bricks of Texas with her husband, son, and a dog that composes music with squeaky toys. While Helen writes about the power hungry, she genuinely mistrusts anyone who wants to rule the world. If you enjoy her books, please consider writing a review. If you don’t, please be kind.

The Cheap Kindle Daily read is Badwater (The Forensic Geology Series) by Tony Dwiggins

The genre is Mystery with a 4.5 star rating at only $2.99!

“”Fans of Nevada Barr will love this suspenseful literary mystery, where the brutal Death Valley landscape is as much a character as the renegade radworkers, dangerously eccentric desert rats, and dogged geologists trying to prevent a nuclear disaster.” – Lisa Brackmann, Author

_______________________________________________________

Forensic geologists Cassie Oldfield and Walter Shaws embark on a perilous hunt–tracking a terrorist who has stolen radioactive material that is hotter than the desert in August. He threatens to release it in America’s most fragile national park, Death Valley.

But first he must stop the geologists who are closing in.

As the hunt turns dangerous, Cassie and Walter will need grit along with their field skills to survive this case. For they are up against more than pure human malice. The unstable atom–in the hands of an unstable man–is governed by Murphy’s Law. Whatever can go wrong, will go wrong.  And it does.

About The Author

CToni Dwiggins has done magazine work, both fiction and non. She’s author of a US History textbook, and has contributed to texts in the sciences. She’s done tech-writing for the Silicon Valley computer industry, and that experience hatched an idea that became her first novel, about an attempt to sabotage the nation’s telephone system (INTERRUPT, published by TOR Books).

She went in a different direction with her second novel, BADWATER, into the world of rocks and radiation. Always a rock collector, she became hooked on geology, and then came across a textbook on forensic geology and was further hooked. She found a generous forensic geologist who showed her around his lab and taught her the basics.

And then one day she was looking through old camping photos and came across pics of a trip to Death Valley, and thought: now there’s a place to set a story.

And then she learned that—on the perimeter of Death Valley National Park—there once was a radioactive waste dump. To learn more about Toni, visit her at: http://www.tonidwiggins.com/
