Another freebie from Medallion Press: A Foreign Policy by Richard Graham-Yooll.

Quote:
Guy Sinclair is an insurance agent. But not just any agent. When the company director invites him to a restaurant to talk about his doubts concerning the firm's world renowned business partners, the last thing he expects to be is the target of a suicide bomber. Miraculously surviving, he flies to Saudi Arabia to investigate a routine claim that turns out to be anything but routine. Accepting yet another invitation he should have turned down, Sinclair attends a party turned surreal. Witnessing a brutal murder, he finds himself the suspect. The penalty under Saudi law? Beheading. The only person who can possibly help him? The sister of the woman who blew herself, and his boss, to smithereens. Can it get worse? Yes. It can. When the trail he follows leads close to home. And Sinclair's family becomes involved with him in a deadly foreign policy.
Three more from R.D. Zimmerman's backlist:

Blood Trance

Quote:
When a former patient calls Maddy, a brilliant forensic hypnotherapist, for help, she must rely on her brother, Alex, to be her eyes and legs. What Alex witnesses is murder...and Maddy must extract the buried clues and bloody truth from his unconscious mind in order to catch a killer, now a threat to them both.
This is #2 in the Alex & Maddy Phillips series.

Tribe #2 in Todd Mills series

Quote:
All he remembered was the furtive encounter, the terror of discovery, the burning cigarette. . . and the voyeur on the fire escape plummeting to his death. For twenty years, Todd Mills was safe, closeted, building his career as a two-time Emmy Award-winning TV reporter. He had it all--until his double life became front-page news. Since his lover's murder, Todd hadn't worked. It was the first pause in his professional life.

Now he's out, warily beginning a romance with police detective Steve Rawlins, when an old friend, an ex-girlfriend, calls for help. The son she gave up for adoption years before has found her--but as Todd steps in to help, he's forced to face the nightmare of his own buried past, as murderous secrets return to kill again. . . .
Hostage #3 in Todd Mills series

Quote:
It's the coup of his career--until the unthinkable happens.Todd Mills, Minneapolis's only openly gay journalist, is getting ready for what promises to be an explosive television event: an exclusive interview with Congressman Johnny Clariton, a conservative whose vehement opposition to gay rights and AIDS research has fueled his rapid political ascent.But coup turns to chaos when Todd's interview is abruptly ended by three gun-wielding kidnappers--an unlikely trio of domestic terrorists in the final stages of AIDS. With Todd as their conduit to a global audience, the abductors are willing to risk what's left of their lives to give violent expression to their AIDS rage.Their goal: to make the world know what it's like to live--and die--with AIDS.Their weapons: a video camera, a hostage, and a syringe full of blood.While the increasingly desperate events play out on television for the world to see, Todd's relationship with homicide investigator Steve Rawlins is dragged into the fray, throwing the unsuspecting Rawlins--still grieving over the recent end of his closest friend's long struggle with AIDS--on a collision course with the kidnappers. And as television reporter, cop, and the FBI all continue their hunt for the terrorists, the tension builds to a heart-wrenching, tragic climax.Unsettling, unpredictable and unapologetic, Hostage is Zimmerman's darkest and most suspenseful tale yet, a bold step forward for this acclaimed and widely popular series.
