Gone to Sea in a Bucket by David Black, A Harry Gilmour Mystery (1st in series)

Publisher: Thomas & Mercer

  

Like all young men of a certain age, Harry Gilmour had his own notion of how a naval battle should be. This wasn't it …

Norway, 1940: Sub Lieutenant Harry Gilmour's first encounter with battleship action is not the adventure he had hoped for. Faced with a thankless task and ill equipped to handle it, Gilmour's inexperience leads to a damning allegation. His future hangs in the balance.

But then Lieutenant Peter Dumaresq steps in to offer him a lifeline — an advanced navigation course that will take him aboard a crack submarine, HMS Pelorus, under the command of a Royal Navy hero. Faced with a possible court martial, Harry chooses life underwater. Once aboard, however, Harry is confronted for the first time by the full horror of submarine warfare. If he can just overcome his fears, it will be the making of him.

Because survival itself is the challenge now. For Harry and the rest of the crew, the next depth charge could be the one that sinks them.

When Eva and Dan respond to a call for help from the island's oldest oyster company, they expect a simple case finally allowing them a much needed break in the sun. But nothing stays simple for long …

Old oyster farmer John Musset proves to be a very awkward client with more enemies than friends, accusing his competitor Dennis Hartman of sabotaging his business. Much-loved environmental campaigner Alf Craddock disappears and Eva and Dan discover they are being watched. They soon become embroiled in something much more than sinister than sabotage …

From the moment Craddock disappears two lines of inquiry emerge. One they will get paid for. The other is their moral duty. Why has the old man disappeared? What is killing Mersea Island's centuries-old oyster business? Who is watching Dan and Eva's every move?

They must discover and eliminate the source of the danger before any more damage is done. Because this kind of crime can kill — and go on killing …

And all the while trouble is brewing back at home …

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

Ice Shear by M. P. Cooley

A June Lyons Mystery (1st in series)

Publisher: William Morrow

Price: $1.99 (as of 10/31/2015 at 4:00 PM ET).

  

A small town cop's murder investigation turns deadly when she uncovers a web of politics and drugs linked to an outlaw motorcycle gang …

As a cop on the night shift in Hopewell Falls, New York, June Lyons drives drunks home and picks up the donuts. A former FBI agent, she ditched the Bureau when her husband died, and now she and her young daughter are back in upstate New York, living with her father, the town's retired chief of police.

When June discovers a young woman's body impaled on an ice shear in the frozen Mohawk River, news of the murder spreads fast; the dead girl was the daughter of a powerful local Congresswoman, and her troubled youth kept the gossips busy.

Though June was born and raised in Hopewell Falls, the local police see her as an interloper — resentment that explodes in anger when the FBI arrive and deputize her to work on the murder investigation. But June may not find allies among the Feds. The agent heading the case is someone from her past — someone she isn't sure she can trust.

As June digs deeper, an already fraught case turns red-hot when it leads to a notorious biker gang and a meth lab hidden in plain sight — and an unmistakable sign that the river murder won't be the last.
