Free (Kindle) The Black Stiletto by Raymond Benson [Secret Identity Revenge Thriller]
The Black Stiletto by Raymond Benson, a James Bond tie-in novel writer and Edgar Award-nominee under the penname David Michaels, is an interesting-looking really-unexpected-family-secrets-and-dealing-with-the-aftermath thriller, free courtesy of Oceanview Publishing, and not just one of their ex-authors still using the Oceanview name for their KDP repubs.
Free @ Amazon (available to Canadians, but not in the UK) Description Could Martin Talbot's elderly, Alzheimer-stricken mother, Judy, really have been the Black Stiletto? When Martin discovers several volumes of her diaries hidden by his mother, he is stunned beyond all imagination. His mother, the underground heroine of yesteryear? The famed ,still unidentified woman who battled Communist spies, took on the Mafia, and preyed on common crooks? The woman who exacted punishment on evildoers without mercy? But it is all described, in great detail, in the diaries. What caused her to begin her quest for justice. Her decision to act outside the law. Her feats as the famed and feared vigilante. How her reputation exploded. In short, how it all played out. Could it be true? Talbot is filled with doubt and disbelief. But the reappearance of one of the Stiletto's old enemies with a thirst for merciless revenge makes the story more than real and could imperil the life of not only the Stiletto, but her son and granddaughter as well.

Superhero fiction experts always like to find more, especially free. So thanks!
I read the short story and it was solid. So this looks decent. |

When I say (not available to X), I mean "not available free to X". If it doesn't actually seem to exist in the store in question, then I put that instead if I bothered to go looking. Otherwise there would be a whole lot of geo-restricted books that Canadians couldn't get at all, much less promotionally free.
