A Suspense Thriller

Art history professor Tom Stratton hasn't seen his former mentor David Wang for years — until they unexpectedly run into each other while Stratton is on a guided tour of China. But the trip quickly turns sinister when Wang is found dead. After the American embassy fumbles the investigation, Stratton sets out to solve the crime on his own, and quickly finds himself tangled in a web of corruption and murder that reaches the highest seats of power.

Beset by the suffocating secrecy and subterfuge of communist China, Stratton must solve his friend's murder — before the fury of a brutal conspiracy closes in on him.

A Damaged Goods Mystery

Publisher: Elements Unleashed

  

This title was listed for free as of January 30, 2015 at 7:40 AM ET.

She's serving up mayhem in the Magic City …

Dishing out bad news is Jackie Parker's job until her boss grabs her assets one time too many and she serves him her notice and hopes he chokes on it. There must be a better way for a certified process server to make a living in Miami than working for a lousy lecherous lawyer. Whatever Jackie decides, her number one priority is spending time with her husband, Luke, preferably without his brother Logan — AKA the Dark Prince.

Despite Logan's objections, Luke asks her to join forces in their own property management team, Damaged Goods. Drawing the line between professional and personal lives proves challenging though, especially with Logan serving her an ultimatum — tell Luke the truth about what really happened the night they first met or he will. Sexual harassment is looking better and better.

Fester Gomez is three months behind on his rent for his pricey South Beach condo and Damaged Goods is on the job. Either they convince the tenant to pay up or he'll face eviction. The simple task turns deadly when the team discovers Gomez missing and a Jane Doe slowly decomposing in his bathtub. Serving a killer up to justice, wrestling family secrets — it's just another day on the job for Damaged Goods.

This title was listed for free as of January 30, 2015 at 7:30 AM ET.

Sparks fly when attorney Kathy Brooks agrees to represent novelist Charles Morgan, Jr. in a high-profile suit against a powerful government defense contractor. But when Charles' hidden agenda threatens to expose the government's dirty little secrets, what started out as the case of a lifetime could cost Kathy her heart, her career and even her life.

Charles doesn't just want to win the lawsuit. He wants to destroy the company responsible for his wife's death. His enemies, however, will stop at nothing to make the case go away — and that includes blackmail, kidnapping, and murder.

As the body count rises and the stakes get higher, Charles and Kathy will have to decide just how much they're willing to sacrifice for the win. To get justice, they'll have to put it all out on the line — including each other — and it still might not be enough.
