The Memory Box by Eva Lesko Natiello

A Psychological Thriller

Publisher: Fine Line Publishing

Price: 99¢ (as of 01/23/2016 at 7:00 PM ET).

  

A group of privileged suburban moms amuse themselves by Googling everyone in town, digging up dirt to fuel thorny gossip. Caroline Thompson, devoted mother of two, sticks to the moral high ground and attempts to avoid these women. She's relieved to hear her name appears only three times, citing her philanthropy. Despite being grateful that she has nothing to hide, a delayed pang of insecurity prods Caroline to Google her maiden name — which none of the others know.

The hits cascade like a tsunami. Caroline's terrified by what she reads. An obituary for her twin sister, JD? That's absurd. With every click, the revelations grow more alarming. They can't be right. She'd know. Caroline is hurled into a state of paranoia — upending her blissful family life and marriage — desperate to prove these allegations false before someone discovers they're true.

The disturbing underpinnings of The Memory Box expose a story of deceit, misconceptions, and an obsession for control. With its twists, taut pacing, and psychological tenor, Natiello's page turning suspense cautions:

Be careful what you search for.

Dying for the Rose by A. Anders

A Romantic Suspense Murder Mystery

Publisher: RateABull Publishing

Price: 99¢ (as of 01/23/2016 at 6:30 PM ET).

  

No guy goes on a TV show similar to The Bachelorette expecting to find love, least of all a man like Ford Stone. Though ruggedly handsome and roguishly charming, a tragic loss closed his heart. But when competing against fifteen guys in a romantic tropical setting for the love of the gorgeous bachelorette Rose Kaitlyn, well, anything could happen.

At least, that's what the show producers must have thought when they made Ford a contestant, but Ford isn't the type of guy to just play along. He has his own plan, which is to stand in back, poke fun at the love-struck fools, and get eliminated in a week. And he would have done exactly that if he hadn't stumbled upon two things: an eliminated contestant's dead body and the show's chilling twist.

Can Ford survive the death-defying group dates and the insane contestants long enough to win over Rose? Can Ford uncover Rose's haunting secret? With fifteen other guys vying for Rose's love, does Ford even have a chance at love with Rose?

With death at every turn, time is running out fast.

When divorced, down-on-his-luck journalist Dimitri Boizot leaves Paris for a vacation in Brittany, he expects little more than some time to relax. But when the suave politician vacationing next door becomes the victim of a robbery — and kills the intruder in self-defense — Boizot gets an unexpected scoop.

As Boizot dives into the investigation, however, it's clear the politician isn't telling the whole truth. Worse, the police can't identify the thief's dead body but seem willing to close the case anyway. As Boizot scrambles to uncover the true motives behind the crime, he reveals hints of a monstrous cover-up involving a French mining company with shadowy dealings in Africa.

Soon, the journalist is scoring his biggest headlines ever and getting cozy with a mysterious blonde who could be part of the conspiracy. As his editor begs for more revelations, and as the dead bodies continue to pile up, Boizot must decide whom he can trust — and how much he's willing to risk to get the real story.

A nine-month pregnant wife, a murder victim found down a trench in an archaeological dig, minus his fingers, and very limited time, meant that Joe Rafferty wasn't a happy bunny. Superintendent Bradley, media darling and determined to stay that way, only added to Rafferty's stress.

They discovered that their murder victim was small-time crook and drug dealer. He had vanished from Spain, where he worked for Charlie Carver, a Mr Big of the Costa del Crime. But Rafferty's visit to Spain was cut short when to Abra went into labour. And despite his promises that he'd be there at his child's birth, wouldn't you know the French air traffic controllers had staged their usual summer strike.

Superintendent Bradley demanded he get Charlie Carver who'd be a big feather in his cap from the brass. But Rafferty was convinced Carver wasn't the murderer this time, whatever else he might be guilty of. Becoming a daddy was a big thing for him, in more ways than one. Because it led him to the true murderer, with a motive as old as time.

Pine Hills Police, Four Complete Novels by Terry Odell, Now Available at a Special Price

Omnimystery News is always searching for newly discounted mystery, suspense, thriller and crime novels for our readers to enjoy.

Today, we're pleased to present the following title, now available at a special price courtesy of the author …

Pine Hills Police by Terry Odell

Four Complete Novels

Publisher: Terry Odell

Price: 99¢ (as of 01/23/2016 at 4:00 PM ET).

  

Three full length novels featuring the small town of Pine Hills, Oregon and police detective Randy Detweiler are bundled in this collection of a blend of mystery and romantic suspense police procedurals: Finding Sarah, Hidden Fire, and Saving Scott. There's also an added bonus of Nowhere to Hide, a Pine Hills Police spinoff, featuring Colleen McDonald, first introduced in Finding Sarah. Join Randy and Sarah, Scott and Ashley, and Graham and Colleen as they solve crimes and fall in love.

Finding Sarah: Being robbed at gunpoint wasn't part of Sarah Tucker's business plan. Neither was falling in love with the detective who arrived to solve the case. For police detective Randy Detweiler, a routine robbery investigation turns into the biggest challenge of his career when he falls in love with the victim and ends up having to save more than her business.

Hidden Fire: Returning from a stint as part of a task force on violent crime, Randy Detweiler is eager to reunite with Sarah Tucker in Pine Hills, but she's having second thoughts about their relationship. Can she deal with a cop who gets called away at a moment's notice, especially one who won't talk about his job? Should Sarah force him to choose between his job and the us she envisions for the two of them? All bets are off when Sarah herself becomes a suspect in Randy's case. Is there a serial killer on the loose? Before long, it's more than their relationship that's in danger.

Saving Scott: Can a dead body in a chocolate shop revive a battle-fatigued cop? Or will it take the owner of the shop to save him? Homicide detective Scott Whelan lived for the job — until the day he was caught in the middle of a robbery gone bad. Although some call him a hero, he thinks of himself as a coward and a failure. He exists now in what he calls his "Dark Place". He accepts a new job as a civilian with the Pine Hills Police Department, thinking being close to the job will be better than leaving it completely. But when he finds himself in the middle of the investigation. Scott has to choose where his loyalties lie — with his brotherhood in blue, or his attractive new neighbor, who needs someone on her side.

Nowhere to Hide: The trouble with running away is that you take yourself with you. After police officer Colleen McDonald is injured in a case gone south and her partner dies, she leaves her job and friends in small town Oregon for a fresh start as a civilian in Orlando. When a deputy sheriff comes to her door investigating a possible missing person, she's determined to get him out of her life by beating him at his own game. Deputy Sheriff Graham Harrigan is determined to prove he's worthy of a promotion to detective despite an unearned reputation passed down by an unsavory training partner. The attractive woman living in Jeffrey's guest-house complicates matters. Their rivalry becomes a partnership that stretches the boundaries of a professional relationship.

Publisher: Harper

 

Widower Jack Harris has resisted the dating scene ever since the shooting of his wife Molly by a fifteen-year-old boy three years ago. An early morning run along the Hudson River changes that when he spots a woman in last night's party dress, barefoot, enjoying a champagne picnic alone, reading his favorite novel. Everything about her reminds him of what he used to have with Molly. Eager to help Jack find love again, his best friend posts a message on a popular website after he mentions the encounter. Days later, that same beautiful stranger responds and invites Jack to meet her in person at the waterfront. That's when Jack's world falls apart.

Olivia Randall is one of New York City's best criminal defense lawyers. When she hears that her former fiancé, Jack Harris, has been arrested for a triple homicide — and that one of the victims was connected to his wife's murder — there is no doubt in her mind as to his innocence. The only question is who would go to such great lengths to frame him — and why?

For Olivia, representing Jack is a way to make up for past regrets, to absolve herself of guilt from a tragic decision, a secret she has held for twenty years. But as the evidence against him mounts, she is forced to confront her doubts. The man she knew could not have done this. But what if she never really knew him?

Price: $3.99 (as of 01/23/2016 at 12:30 PM ET).

  

Someone at Professor Laura Murphy's college appears to be playing a joke on her by planting sexually explicit stories in her research results, but the joke turns deadly when one story details the recent stabbing murder of a coed. Laura's close friend, Detective Derrick Pasquis from the local police, asks for her help in interviewing the prickly suspects who resist intervention from outside the campus community. Eager to search out clues, Laura ignores warning signs that playing amateur sleuth may jeopardize her newly developing romance with Guy. And of course her usual intrusive manner puts her at odds with everyone on campus — colleagues, the college administration, the head of campus security and fraternity members. Is there no one Laura can't offend in her eagerness to find the truth?

The closer she gets to solving the crime, the more it appears that the past — the coed's, that of a prominent faculty member and Laura's own — is the key to the murder. Caught in an early winter blizzard, Laura must choose between wandering the mountains and freezing to death or taking her chances with a killer clever enough to make murder look like the work of an innocent student.
