Escape to Havana by Nick Wilkshire, Amazon Kindle format

For Charlie Hillier, a posting to Cuba could be the perfect place to start his new life — if he survives it …

With his career stalled and the office abuzz about his soon-to-be-ex-wife's indiscretions, Ottawa bureaucrat Charlie Hillier is desperate for a change. So when the chance at a posting to the Canadian embassy in Havana comes up, he jumps at it, grateful to get as far away as he can from his ex and his dead-end job at Foreign Affairs headquarters.

At first, exotic Havana seems just the place to bury his past and start anew, but he didn't count on finding a couple of kilos of cocaine under his bedroom floor, the kidnapping of a fellow diplomat, or the unsettling connection he uncovers between the former occupant of his house and a Colombian drug-runner. Before long, Charlie's only concern is whether he'll survive his posting at all.

Bronx Requiem by John Clarkson

Bronx Requiem by John Clarkson, a James Beck Mystery (2nd in series)

Publisher: Minotaur Books

Bronx Requiem by John Clarkson, Amazon Kindle format

Paco Johnson spent a lifetime in the system — starting in juvie at age 10, then prison for most of his adult life. But he managed to make some real friends in prison, friends who helped him get parole, a place to stay, and plans to help him adjust to a life outside prison after seventeen years behind bars. But only seventeen hours after he was released, he was found dead — murdered — in the streets of the Bronx.

James Beck can't save Packy any longer — but he can try to find out what happened to Packy, and why, and exact a measure of justice. Beck, ringleader of a tight clique of ex-cons based in Brooklyn's Red Hook section, is determined to accord Packy at least some dignity and a measure of justice. But what drove Packy out onto the streets of the Bronx his first night back? Who did he run into that hated him enough to viciously beat him before executing him, and yet left behind his wallet full of cash?

But what at first appears to be a simple, if tragic, street killing, quickly becomes something much more difficult and complex. And it will take all the skills, connections, and cunning of Beck and his team not only to learn the truth but to survive the forces they've unwittingly unleashed.

Determined to take control, Goldy moves her business to the ritzy Aspen Meadow Country Club. Soon she's preparing decadent dinners and posh society picnics — and enjoying the favors of Philip Miller, a handsome local shrink, and Tom Schulz, her more-than-friendly neighborhood cop. Until, that is, the dishy doctor drives his BMW into an oncoming bus.

Convinced that Philip's bizarre death was no accident, Goldy begins to sift through the dead doc's unpalatable secrets. But this case is seasoned with unexpected danger and even more unexpected revelations — the kind that could get a caterer killed.

The most exciting thing to happen in the Amish town of Mount Hope is usually a lost cow or broken buggy, so the last thing Abigail Lapp expected for the holidays was a murder in her own inn!

Abigail Lapp loves running the small Troyer Farms Bed and Breakfast. The sturdy stone inn, built by her grandfather, attracts guests both Englischer and Amish alike. So when Daniel Bradford stumbles out of the cold into Abigail's Inn, she is more than happy to accommodate him. However, her pleasure turns to shock when Mr. Bradford is found dead the next morning, of an apparent heart attack.

Now, as a snowstorm traps Abigail and her guests in the Inn, Abigail finds herself in the midst of a mystery. Who killed Mr. Bradford, and why did they want him dead in the first place? And even more alarming, are they here in the Inn, right now?

As the clues begin to gather like the blizzard outside, Abigail finds herself racing against the storm to discover the culprit, before it's too late.

The tide has turned for Dodie O'Dell since a hurricane upended her life on the Jersey Shore.

But Dodie just never imagined she'd land the starring role in a case of bloody homicide …

Intrigued by rumors of vanishing box office money, Dodie has agreed to help oversee the casting of Romeo and Juliet at the modest Etonville Little Theater. If nothing else, it's a welcome escape from the thirty-something's usual going-to-bed-with-a-mystery-novel routine.

As a crime wave crashes over the small town, the spotlight is on Dodie to orchestrate her own investigation behind the scenes … before someone has a chance at a killer encore.

Publisher: Open Road

Price: $1.99 (as of 11/13/2016 at 8:00 PM ET).

The Nicholas Linnear Novels by Eric Van Lustbader, Amazon Kindle format

Born to a British army officer and a Chinese refugee, Nicholas Linnear grows up in Japan, where he falls in love with the nation's culture, its history, and its deadliest martial arts.

In The Ninja, Linnear quits his job abruptly when he feels himself yearning for the life he led in Japan. Searching for direction, he meets a striking beauty named Justine and is beginning to fall in love when something chilling draws him back into his past: the corpse of a coworker, murdered by a Japanese throwing star. There is a ninja loose in New York City, and as the body count rises, it becomes clear that people close to Linnear are being targeted. Only he has the skill to stop a twisted killer with a personal vendetta.

In The Miko, Linnear vows revenge after his best friend dies under suspicious circumstances. But although he may look American, a childhood spent in the dojos of Japan taught Linnear that vengeance must never be hurried. He takes a job for the billionaire industrialist who ordered the murder, planning to befriend his target during a trip to Tokyo. But even for a modern-day ninja, there is such thing as too close for comfort.

In White Ninja, a sadist haunts the back alleys and sex clubs of Tokyo, picking up women, horrifically mutilating them, and leaving behind a calling card written in blood: This could be your wife. He kills fearlessly, certain the police will never catch him. The only man who might stop this fiend is Nicholas Linnear, one of the country's leading practitioners of ninjutsu.

Chris travels to China to search for evidence that will link the intrusion to the People's Liberation Army. With remote assistance from Zoey Doucet, the head of his firm's computer forensics lab and his maybe-girlfriend, Chris uncovers information that takes him even deeper into the shadowy world of cybercrime. Now he is trapped in a foreign land with a hard drive containing information that puts his life in jeopardy. In this secretive world of Big Data, Chris will risk everything to fight an elusive enemy as far-reaching as the Internet itself.
