Accidents Waiting To Happen by Simon Wood
A Novel of Suspense
Publisher: Thomas & Mercer
Kindle Daily Deal Price: $1.99
Josh Michaels isn't wanted dead or alive — just dead. That fact becomes shockingly clear when a stranger runs his car off the road. Instead of a helping hand, the man gives Josh a "thumbs down" and abandons him to what is almost certainly a watery grave. Luckily, Josh cheats death … this time. But when more harrowing "accidents" threaten his life, it's clear he's a marked man.
Are his past mistakes coming back to bite him? Or is something more sinister afoot? And how can he convince his family, friends, and especially the cops that he's in danger? The harder Josh fights to stay alive, the more determined his unknown enemy is to see him dead. And the deeper he digs for answers, the more chilling the truth becomes. As his time and luck rapidly run out, he must unmask an insidious conspiracy bent on making a killing — in more ways than one.

The Barkeep by William Lashner
A Novel of Suspense
Publisher: Thomas & Mercer
Kindle Daily Deal Price: $1.99
Justin Chase is the perfect barkeep, tending bar as he lives his life, in a state of Zen serenity. At least until Birdie Grackle, a yellow-haired, foul-mouthed alcoholic from Texas, walks into his bar, orders a Mojito, and makes a startling confession.
Six years ago Justin's life was ripped apart when he discovered his mother's bludgeoned corpse in the foyer of the family home. Now Justin's father is serving a life sentence and Justin, after a stint in an asylum, drowns his emotions in a pool of inner peace. But when Birdie Grackle claims to be the hit man who murdered Justin's mother for the money, Justin is hurled back to the emotions, the past, and, most frightening of all, the father he tried to leave behind.
Who hired Birdie Grackle to kill Justin's mother? Was it Annie Overmeyer, the sexy young woman with whom Justin's father had been having an affair? Was it Justin's brother, who took advantage of his father's conviction to take control of the family business? Was it someone from his mother's secret life, the shocking details of which Justin is only learning now? Or was it maybe his imprisoned father, to whom Justin is suddenly growing dangerously close? For all of Justin's efforts to banish emotion and attachment from his life, this searing journey into his past affects him in ways he could never have anticipated.
As Justin pieces together the truth, a merciless killing machine begins stalking him, leaving a trail of dead in his wake. Someone wants to bury the truth, and maybe Justin, too. As the terror closes in, Justin had better find some answers quick, because the stakes have been raised — his life is on the line and murder is just not Zen.
