Some backlist books/award-nominee established authors for the horror & thriller fans, and we have an interesting-looking historical as well, plus a couple of Christian things for the people who read Christian things.
Previously title-featured Stoker & World Fantasy Award-winner David B. Silva returns with a horror/suspense novel out from Hodder Headline in 1994:
The Presence
Minor ISFDBed Allan Leverone returns with a horror short:
The Becoming - a novella
Berkley-published Michele Scott returns with another tie-in short to her wine mystery series:
Dog Gone Dog
Bantam-published Peggy Webb returns with a 1980-Fanfare interracial historical western romantic suspense:
Witch Dance
St. Martin's/Minotaur-published Gerrie Ferris Finger returns with a detective mystery/thriller:
HEARTLESS (Gemma Summers Series)
Mike Walsh, who appears to have had a book out from Onyx (there are a bunch of people with his exact name with very different books who come up on search, assuming they're not all him) offers a 2005 small-pressed 1950s coming-of-age crime/suspense thriller, which quotes blurb praise from I-forget-who-published-him-but-he's-been-here-before Bill Pronzini:
The Runaway
Shirley Stephens offers a 1980 Broadman Press-published Christian non-fiction:
A New Testament View of Women
Baker-published Angela Elwell Hunt returns with a Christian fiction short which she says originally appeared in a Multnomah-published anthology:
The Yellow Sock: An Adoption Story
Daniel Judson offers a 2002-Bantam installment of his PI mystery/thriller series:
The Poisoned Rose (The Gin Palace Trilogy)
Kim Cowie (
ISFDB entry) offers an sfnal short which they say was sold to a particular British magazine which folded before it could be published:
Centaurus
Stoker-nominated Daniel G. Keohane (
ISFDB entry) offers what seems to be a newly-written dark suspense/maybe-horror novel:
Destroyer of Worlds
Ballantine-published Boston Teran offers a WWI-set historical/political thriller set during the Armenian genocide which actually looks pretty interesting. This apparently continues the overseas adventures of a a US Bureau of Investigation agent in their previously published books:
Gardens of Grief
Leon Mare offers his 1996 Janus small-pressed Africa-set big game crime thriller originally published under the title Dying is Not Easy:
POACHER (Sam Jenkins Trilogy) ETA: Turns out this is not KDP Select, but
price-matched with Smashwords, where the author says it is also a romantic thriller.
I like stuff set in Iceland and the sample for this YA tourist crime/mystery doesn't read too badly and the actual bits of Icelandic sprinkled throughout look mostly okay (I freely admit to not having a terribly good grasp on the language), so I include:
Iceland Spar
There's some new-looking & mostly repeat stuff out from the following small publishers if you want to try it:
Crossroad Press (backlist),
Imajin (newbie & some backlist authors),
Deadly Niche (newbie & some backlist),
Hydra Publications (newbie, sf/fantasy + historical),
Sunbury Press (newbie, mostly UK historical & mystery). And as usual, Books We Love/BWLPP have a bunch of repeats from their assorted backlist and newbie authors.
Happy reading, if you manage to spot something you think you might like, or you are considerably more fluent in Icelandic than I and that last book provides you with geysers of unintentional merriment.
