Let A Kidnapper Take Your Child, Or Watch Your Son Die.
Choose!
Sadie
O'Connell is a bestselling author and a proud mother. But her life is
about to spiral out of control. After her six-year-old son Sam is
kidnapped by a serial abductor, she nearly goes insane. But it isn't
just the fear and grief that is ripping her apart. It's the guilt. Sadie
is the only person who knows what the kidnapper looks like. And she
can't tell a soul. For if she does, her son will be sent back to her in
"little bloody pieces".
When Sadie's unfaithful husband stumbles
across her drawing of the kidnapper, he sets into play a series of
horrific events that sends her hurtling over the edge. Sadie's descent
into alcoholism leads to strange apparitions and a face-to-face
encounter with the monster who abducted her son--a man known only
as...The Fog.

FREE -- US & UK Kindle Edition -- Children of the Fog by Cheryl Kaye Tardif
FREE -- US & UK Kindle Edition -- Implicated by Peter Michael Rosenberg
Erdogan Denizli cleans up the messes other people make of their lives.
Not their dirty houses or their dirty clothes - no, Erdogan gets a call
when a bathroom is sprayed with arterial blood after a shamed pervert
cuts his own throat, after a home-invasion-gone-wrong leaves bits of
brain ground into the carpet, or when an undiscovered death drips
putrefying body fluids into the apartment below. He's a crime scene
cleaner in Ventura County, California and after forensics have done
their job, he gets to work...
It's not his job to feel the pain
of those left behind, or to feel sadness at a wasted and unmourned life,
but he does. He can't help it. But he doesn't get involved; he can't
afford to - he can't risk dredging up the shadows of his own past. But
when, on a routine crime scene clean-up, he finds a piece of overlooked
evidence, evidence that implicates the cops in an assassins-for-hire
conspiracy, he can't look the other way, because now his own life's in
danger. But who do you turn to for help when it's the cops that want you
dead?
Implicated is a contemporary but noirish thriller with a
"cast of characters straight out of an Elmore Leonard novel": Valerie,
the femme fatale who wants to nail the cops who killed her husband...
Maxim, the Azerbaijani mobster who wants in on a little bit of the
American Dream ... ill-fated Sammy the Schmuck with his penchant for
other people's lives (and other people's money). And Brad and Mikey, the
cops who've long since thrown "Serve and Protect" out the window.

Somewhere between the murk of Glasgow's dens of iniquity and the

lives are remade to order.

escape: from boredom, from misery, from guilt, above all, from
themselves. She can offer a nepenthe, she can chase away sorrow, but she

FREE -- US & UK Kindle Edition -- Real Women Wear Red by Kathy Holmes
When 40-something Kate "Cyn" Francis changes her name, her hair color,
and her age in order to snag a younger man on a Caribbean cruise, the

looking for love. Millie Evans, having recently sold her publishing
empire, is on a succession of one-week cruises, looking to reconnect

FREE -- US & UK Kindle Edition -- Fool's Journey by Mary Chase Comstock
Dubbed “Little Lizzie Borden” by the tabloids, a young girl took refuge

persona—or so she thought. Against the rain-washed backdrop of Seattle,

woman must confront her past and make a decision: run again or face down
the demons that haunt her still? Only a passage along the well-worn
road of the Fool’s Journey will tell.
