Yes, I kind of had my eye on that one too but read the sample and decided it probably wasn't my type.

Well Kobo put up a very nice separate link for all the books - both Pegasus and Open Road:

50 Summer Steals from Open Road Media

AND a nice, new shiny 20% off coupon to go along with it: jun29us20, expires 7/4.

I got the Jon Land book The Doomsday Spiral, which has been on my wishlist.

In Jon Land"s first novel, a crew of Arab terrorists attempts to tear America apart from the inside out-and only Alabaster, an Israeli special forces operative, can stop them After years of being presumed dead, Palestine"s most feared terrorist emerges from hiding with a plan for utter domination of the Middle East: the Shaitan Commandment. With a quartet of the region"s deadliest soldiers, he puts into motion a scheme that spells doom for the Western world. His target is not Israel, but Israel"s protector: the United States. On their trail is Alabaster, an Israeli special-forces agent whose true identity is buried under so many layers of deception that not even the Mossad knows who he really is. But every terrorist has heard of him, and knows to be afraid. A ruthless investigator with no time for diplomatic niceties, he may be all that stands between the United States and oblivion. This ebook features an illustrated biography of Jon Land including rare photos from the author"s personal collection.

Not usually a big thriller fan but read his book, Labyrinth, years ago and really liked it.

Also got the John Lutz book, Tropical Heat. First book in his Fred Carver series. I have read a lot of his books but not this particular series.

Forced into early retirement by a bullet to the knee, ex-cop Fred Carver undertakes a missing persons case that quickly places him in mortal danger When the criminal"s bullet shattered his knee, Fred Carver"s colleagues called him lucky. Between his pension and the insurance check, they said, he had a nice, easy retirement to look forward to. But Fred Carver would rather have his knee. His career finished, his marriage over, he takes a halfhearted stab at private detective work, and is already sick of it by the time he meets Edwina Talbot, a beautiful woman who wants him to find her dead lover. Of course, Edwina doesn"t believe her lover is actually dead. Every piece of evidence at the crime scene pointed to suicide, but as far a she"s concerned her man is just missing and Fred Carver is going to bring him back. Carver wants nothing to do with it, but he can"t say no to a little adventure. Some men just aren"t built for taking it easy. This ebook features an illustrated biography of John Lutz including rare photos and never-before-seen documents from the author"s personal collection.
