The broken body hanging from a tree in Texas Hill Country … the frozen figure huddled in a meat locker … only at second glance does the truth become apparent. What seems like suicide is far more sinister, and the terror is only beginning …

One devastating moment changed Greer Templeton's life and ended two others. Now, with a body found on her property and Texas Ranger Tec Bragg on her doorstep, Greer's nightmare has returned. With each new victim, her link to Tec's case grows, and soon it will be too late to run.

Greer hoped the past was behind her, but an obsessed killer has never forgotten the bond that unites them. One by one, he will track down his victims, finish what was started--and make Greer's dying wish come true.

Without Warning
David Rosenfelt

Years ago, Katie Sanford's husband was convicted of the murder of Jenny Robbins, then died himself in prison. It's a small town and memories are long, and Katie and Jenny's husband, Chief of Police Jake Robbins, have had to work at putting the tragedy behind them. But it's all brought up again in the wake of a hurricane which has just wreaked havoc on their quiet Maine town. Since its founding, Wilton has had a quaint tradition of creating a time capsule every fifty years, and the storm unearthed the most recent capsule. As the editor of the local paper, Katie joins Chief Robbins to supervise its opening. Neither of them is prepared for the macabre set of predictions, dating back to months before Jenny's murder, that they find inside. Someone predicted her death, as well as eleven other tragedies, which are still occurring even long after the death of Katie's husband.

At last, after all these years, Katie has reason to hope that her husband might not have been guilty of Jenny's murder after all. But as she and Jake race to stop the next predictions from coming true, they find themselves caught in a terrifying mind game with no rules … and life or death consequences.

A New MystereBook: Frozen Identity by Sharon Rose

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 March 2014 priced $4.99 or less …

Frozen Identity by Sharon Rose is the fifth cozy mystery in the Parson's Cove series.

Frozen Identity by Sharon Rose
A Parson's Cove Cozy Mystery
Publisher: Cozy Cat Press
Publication Date: March 27, 2014
Price: $2.99 (as of 03/29/14 12:30 PM ET)

When a frozen corpse is discovered in a fishing shack on a nearby lake, most residents of Parson's Cove assume the man succumbed to the blistery cold. However, after the body thaws, the coroner discovers that the man — one Victor Fleming — was actually beaten to death.

Eye witnesses suggest that town bad boy Jakie Flanders was seen leaving the shack the night of the murder and was overheard threatening Fleming in town earlier. Add this to the fact that Victor Fleming was Jakie's mother's first cousin and was demanding money from her — and Jakie's motives for murder were piling up. Jakie's mother Flori, a crier if there ever was one, is so devastated when her oldest boy is arrested that she is drained of all her tears, and only her best buddy and local amateur sleuth Mabel Wickles seems to have any faith that Jakie might just be innocent.

Putting her detective cap on, Mabel enlists the aid of her young computer expert friend Nathan Horne and her pal the local Sheriff, Reg Smee, in her attempt to clear Jakie and bring her friend Flori some relief. Soon, Mabel discovers a startling fact. The frozen body, whom everyone assumes is Victor Fleming — isn't. Did Jakie kill the wrong man — if he killed anyone at all? Or is there another reason entirely for this corpse's frozen identity? Mabel will encounter many more clues before she puts this mystery on ice.

The Next Target
Marcel Trigueiro
A Techno-Thriller
Publisher: Marcel Trigueiro

When fear is used as a weapon, the panic paralyses the target like a spider web which immobilizes the preys in the last seconds of their existences. Thenceforth, eliminating a life becomes something elementary.

Rio de Janeiro had already experienced the climate of terror at the end of 2010, with cars and buses being constantly torched overnight. Now, a similar climate settles in the city, but this time the targets have names and surnames. Hundreds of thousands of people are progressively threatened by terrorists who seem to know all the details of their lives. Some of them are cowardly murdered, in a demonstration that anyone can die.

Matheus Erming is the Computer Forensics specialist responsible for examining the computers used by the victims and for finding out how details of their daily routines, kinship and friendship relations were taken by the perpetrators of the attacks. The investigations are the starting point of a persecution not only cybernetic, which touches the lower levels of the organized crime and chases for the roots of chaos in the city. During this race, the security of Matheus' family is also put at risk. When this happens, he knows he has only one choice: to go further, at any cost.

The Devil's Claw
Nick Pignatelli
An Adirondack Thriller
Publisher: Nick Pignatelli

In 1943, Allied commandos desperately search for the Third Reich's ultimate weapon deep inside German-occupied France.

In 2008, the wreckage of an aircraft lost decades earlier on the other side of the world turns up in Colorado's Medicine Bow Mountains.

In 2015, Jennifer Pruitt stumbles into a secret government project gone awry while vacationing in the woods of New York's Adirondack Mountains and now runs for her life, hunted by something that cannot possibly exist.

What is the deadly secret that connects these events?

Master Sergeant Sean Foster leads a Special Forces team into the remote wilderness on a mission to locate Pruitt before she reveals what she saw. Unbeknownst to Foster, an overwhelming force of ruthless assassins with a different mission is shadowing his team. They intend to exterminate Pruitt for being in the wrong place at the wrong time, and Foster's men are fair game if they get in their way.

Will Foster follow orders or his conscience when he finds himself in the crosshairs of a government cover-up? It may not matter as the nightmare Pruitt stumbled upon closes in, threatening to wipe them all out before the day is over.

Forbidden Mind
Karpov Kinrade
The Forbidden Trilogy
Publisher: Daring Books

49% of Americans believe their government officials are honest. I don't know these officials, or their supporters, but I know their secrets, and 49% of Americans are wrong.

My employers pay me well to be right, to know things others can't. But I don't know why they brought that boy in, strapped to a stretcher, barely conscious. He asked me for help when I could give none.

I'm a wealthy spy, a talented artist, a martial arts black belt, and a prisoner. They tell me that on my eighteenth birthday, I will be released, free to go to the college of my dreams. It's my eighteenth birthday, and a man in black is at my door. I know he's not here to free me.

I know, because I can read minds.

My name is Sam, and this is my story.

Thankfully, her cousin Ellie, a self-described psychic, has come along for the ride, and between the two of them, a very underhand plan is brought to light — and a murderer is nabbed.
