Justice is overdue in the coastal town of Twisted Cedars where two unsolved mysteries lay buried in the past …

Over thirty years ago a series of murders targeting Oregon librarians was never solved. Now someone with inside knowledge is feeding clues to true crime writer Dougal Lachlan, promising him the best story of his career. Pursuing the leads means returning to Twisted Cedars, where his sister Jamie is about to marry a man he deeply dislikes.

Local Twisted Cedars librarian Charlotte Hammond prefers her mysteries — and her romances — between the covers of a good book, especially since the disappearance of her older sister, Daisy, eight years ago. But then the dark and tortured soul who is Dougal Lachlan walks into the Twisted Cedars Library asking for her help.

Before long Charlotte realizes there is no safe zone. Not even in libraries … and especially not in Twisted Cedars.

Redemption Road by Tim Stevens

A Martin Calvary Thriller (3rd in series)

Publisher: Tim Stevens

Price: 99¢ (as of 12/03/2015 at 6:30 PM ET).

  

After almost a year on the run, Martin Calvary, veteran of the war in Afghanistan and assassin for MI6, has returned to the fold. He's working once again for the Chapel, a division of British Intelligence so clandestine not even the Prime Minister knows about it, and one committed to the elimination of enemies of the British State. By any means necessary.

During a routine operation in Lisbon, Calvary uncovers the identity of a man who's being hunted by not only MI6, but every other major intelligence service in the world. A man whose nationality is unknown, and whose ideology is terrifyingly obscure. A man known by the ancient Sumerian name Alal. The Destroyer. An arms dealer responsible for some of the greatest terrorist atrocities of recent times. Calvary establishes that Alal has links with a Russian oligarch. But Moscow itself wants Alal brought to heel. The SVR, successor to the Soviet KGB, makes Britain an offer.

Thrown into an uneasy alliance with the Kremlin, Calvary follows Alal's trail to South Africa and, with violence and betrayal threatening him from every side, northward into Africa's deadly, war-torn heart: the Democratic Republic of Congo. As he closes in on his target, and the true horror of Alal's intentions is revealed, Calvary must rely on the help of a ragged band of mercenaries, among them a white supremacist from South Africa's apartheid era, a former Marxist guerilla, and a Sudanese fellow Chapel agent seeking vengeance on the Destroyer, Alal, who butchered her family.

As a soldier in Afghanistan, Calvary once failed his comrades. Their ghosts haunt him to this day. Now, at last, he has a chance at redemption. If the traitor in his outfit doesn't gain the upper hand …

Down the mountain from Sweet Pepper, Tennessee is Christmas Tree Valley, a place filled with hundreds of Christmas tree farms where generations of growers have made people's lives brighter. Yet even here in this quiet, postcard-perfect corner of the world, darkness and murder can still stalk the night …

Federal Wildlife Agent Bonnie Tuttle has always had a special gift with wild animals. It was one of the reasons she decided to train with the wildlife agency. She's spent the last ten years in Alabama working, but her mother needs her home and she's back despite all the bad parts of her life she hoped to leave behind.

Her first day home begins with a fire on the island in Sweet Pepper Lake and the death of Harvey Shelton, the wildlife agent she's supposed to replace. Bonnie manages to rescue dozens of animals from the fire — including a wolf pup that was shot with the same bullet that killed Harvey.

Now she's hot on the trail of Harvey's killer and trying to reintegrate the wolf back into the wild even though he seems to want to stay with her. Yet old memories persist in the small community where she grew up, and the killer now seems to believe that she has what he killed Harvey for. All she has to do is figure out what that is before it's too late.

To add to her already mounting stress, Amy has decided to go back to school to get a degree! Yeah, yeah … she's GLUTTON for punishment.

And so Amy's new quest for a career in law enforcement, coupled with the Seven Deadly sins, puts Amy in a position she's never been before … the back of a trunk, bound and gagged. That's right … Wrath, Greed, Lust, Sloth, Envy, Pride, and Gluttony are the reason she's in her current predicament. And what's more, they're not all her sins, but the sins of everyone else around her including her oh so perfect sister, Beth.

Stuck without any viable alternative, he takes a case from an old criminal acquaintance, Storm. His only client assures him that the job is simple-locate his missing estranged daughter, Zelda, no questions asked.

But when Fletcher starts knocking on doors, he sets off a catastrophic chain of events that turn the city into a bloody battleground between two rival syndicates. Then Storm is murdered and Fletcher finds himself caught between the police and dangerous mobsters.

Cincinnati homicide detective and single mother Sonora Blair puts everything on the line as she battles to find justice after a multiple-murder home invasion …

At a house at the end of a cul-de-sac in the Cincinnati suburbs, widowed Police Specialist Sonora Blair and her partner, Sam Delarosa, discover the bodies of Carl Stinnet and two children. Hiding under the bed in the master bedroom is Carl's wife, Joy. The dying mother holds her unharmed infant daughter and keeps repeating the Hail Mary, claiming "the Angel" saved them.

Joy's deathbed assertion that she saw two men and the Angel — along with differences in the victims' manners of death — make Sonora believe there were multiple killers. Two suspects are found and arrested, but Sonora doesn't get closure. She's sure there was a third person in that horrific crime scene, and she can't stop working the case, even after she's warned to walk away. Amid concerns about her own son and daughter, and her certainty that she'll never sleep soundly again, Sonora prepares to confront a murderer who's about to collect on one last IOU.

Sometimes small dreams are the ones most worth fighting for …

Phoebe has a dream — a very modest dream. She wants to own a Sno-Cone truck at the beach in Key West. Nicky, her would-be boyfriend, also dreams small. All he wants is a decent gig as a guitar player in a bar.

Doesn't seem like too much to ask of life, does it?

So why do things keep going so dreadfully wrong for Phoebe and Nicky? Is it just plain bad luck? Or is it the decidedly bad intentions of a sleazy local cheat, a Miami gangster desperate to stay in business, and a murderous Cuban smuggler looking for a fall guy?

Against these enemies, and with only a pair of mangrove-dwelling philosophers and an ancient Mafioso as allies, Phoebe and Nicky will need more than a major shift in fortune to keep their hopes, and themselves, alive. They'll need a kind of smarts and courage they never knew they had.
