Quoting myself so anyone who got this rotten egg can turn it into a nice-looking rotten egg: Use calibre and choose 'Heuristic.' A quick look showed that the author's mess is now OK. Don |

Fatal Debt - Dorothy Howell, free today
'Dana Mackenzie finds herself working for a faceless financial institution—it’s either this or piercing ears at the mall—and while she’s grateful for a job, she has no intentions of following the corporate offices’ heartless orders. When she’s instructed to repossess a 42-inch Sony television from an elderly couple, Dana intends to put her own twist on the assignment. But upon arriving at their run down house in a gang infested neighborhood, she’s horrified to find sweet old Mr. Sullivan murdered. The homicide detective investigating the case is Nick Travis, Dana’s high school crush. Sparks ignite, but a dark secret threatens to keep them apart—unless Nick comes clean about the past. Dana agrees to help Mr. Sullivan’s grieving family locate his grandson, a guy with a surprising new lifestyle who’s been missing since the day of the murder. Her good intentions put her in the thick of the murder investigation and on a collision course with the killer.

Original Sin (a Peter Brichter mystery) by Mary Monica Pulver
'Kori Price Brichter planned on a wonderful Christmas. She and her police officer husband, Peter Brichter, had invited their friends, Frank and Mary Ryder and Gordon Ramsey, to spend the holiday with them, their son Jeep, and their nanny, Jill. Most important, Kori had invited Evelyn Biggins to join them. Having believed that all of her relatives had died, Kori was particularly thrilled to have found Evelyn, now her only living relative, to tell her of her family history. But Evelyn had only been in the house for a few hours when she was found, dead, in the house's library, victim of an apparent murder. Since the guests were now isolated in house because of a blizzard, the only possible conclusion is that one of them had killed Evelyn. But who?

Free today at Amazon from Black Mask: Affair in Tokyo by John McPartland. It was first published as Fawcett Gold Medal #406 (1954) with the great cover art by Clark Hulings. (I love pulp cover art) UK
Although I haven't yet read this one, I read McPartland's Tokyo Rose last month and was impressed both by the well-done mystery and the colorful view of Tokyo in early 1952 just before the end of the Allied occupation. McPartland was a skilled writer who died at the age of 47. I'm delighted to see his Tokyo books published and promoted by Black Mask. |

Thanks, BelleZora For any readers who like these types of books (as I do), I also made this available as a Bbeb book a few years back, which is easily translated into epub or Mobi using calibre. It and a few other titles are available here on MobileRead for free. (I have a table of contents, by the way.) Don Last edited by Dr. Drib; 02-28-2013 at 09:39 AM. |

Some KDP freebies:
P.J. Parrish is the pseudonym of a sister team who write the Edgar-nominated Louis Kincaid mysteries for Pinnacle. They offer a tie-in tale to said published series, which is a prequel to their upcoming latest novel: Claw Back Steven Torres repeats his 2007 Dorchester/Leisure-paperbacked noir novel, The Concrete Maze, and offers a new collection of shorts (tending towards sfnal), The Box and Other Odd Stories Previously KDP-included small publisher Camel Press offers some sort of humorous Da Vinci Code-esque impromptu buddy caper thriller thing by Mark Everett Stone with favourable reviews from Publishers Weekly and other venues: The Judas Line (this is the author of the zombie PI spoof mysteries you might have picked up last year) Established author self-pub: L.J. Martin aka Larry Jay Martin has written over a dozen westerns for Kensington's Pinnacle imprint and has apparently ghost-written some bounty hunter action thrillers for them as well in conjunction with Bob Burton, if I'm reading the credits/bio correctly. He offers a newly-written corporate ladder-climbing revenge thriller, if you're interested: Windfall (pro-tip for aspiring backlist-releasers: Chalkboard is a step up from Comic Sans MS, admittedly, but it is still not a good font to use for your cover titles) |

Thank you. I don't believe I was using em dashes back then, unfortunately. Also, for some reason calibre loses the color on the image, but one can always delete it and then attach a cover that is in color. Don |
