Here is a mystery, suspense, or thriller ebook that we recently found by sleuthing (as it were) through new or recently reissued titles from independent publishers during November 2013 priced $4.99 or less …
The Liquidator by John Gardner was originally published in hardcover by Viking in June 1964, and is the first in the series of Boysie Oakes thrillers that were so successful they led to John Gardner being chosen to take over the James Bond franchise for books such as License to Kill and License Renewed. The book was made into a film of the same title in 1965 staring Rod Taylor.

Paris, 1944. As the city is liberated, Sergeant Boysie Oaks kills two Germans attempting to assassinate an Intelligence Corps officer named Mostyn.
Two decades later, the suave, sadistic Mostyn has become the Second-in-Command of British Special Security. He recruits the man he believes is a master assassin — Boysie Oakes — to quietly murder potential security risks. He is "The Liquidator". But is Boysie the right man for the job?
He is preparing to take Mostyn's secretary to the Cote D'Azur for a weekend of romance. Yet what starts as a few days of seduction in the Mediterranean sun turns into a nightmare for Boysie as he becomes more and more embroiled in Operation Coronet.
Captured, the tables are turned, and the assassin becomes the target. And Boysie Oakes will need all his wits to stay alive.
