Thanks for starting the thread, NightBird. Was psyched to make two great finds for Kindle on Amazon US this morning:


This one is from a (new?) Swedish publishing house I've recently noticed popping up on my Amazon also-boughts & recommendations - Stockholm Text Publishing. They're offering this title free today:

Death of a Carpet Dealer by Karin Wahlberg

The brutal murder of a Swedish carpet dealer on a business trip to Turkey is the start of a story about an unknown daughter, an exclusive carpet and – as always when Karin Wahlberg writes – the everyday life and dreams of the people we meet in her stories.

Read by every doctor and nurse in Sweden and often compared to New York Times bestselling author of medical thrillers, Tess Gerritsen, Death of a Carpet Dealer is one of seven in Wahlberg’s series featuring Police Commissioner Claes Claesson and his wife Veronika Lundborg, doctor at Oskarshamn hospital. Her books have sold over 1.5 million total copies worldwide.


*******************************

And apparently this title was previously published by HarperCollins as 'Joseph's Mansions.' Free today:

For Your Sins by Joe McNally and Richard Pitman

Frankie Houlihan is a young priest distracted from his vocation by just one thing - horseracing. Standing beside the most dangerous steeplechase fence at Cheltenham, Frankie hurries to help a fallen jockey, Kathy Spencer. Their meeting was to change many lives forever.

Gerry Monroe, is a bitter ex-jockey who has feigned injury to cover his fear of riding. His fierce ambition to 'be someone' mutates into a psychotic obsession to bring misery to those who have succeeded where he failed.

Kelly Corell is a Dublin gangster with a reputation for violence and an idea that will net him millions and devastate the world of horseracing. And Peter Culling is a dying vet who wants to live forever . . . Culling doesn't care who is sacrificed to help finance his wild scheme.

Frankie Houlihan finds himself confronting the real world and the maelstrom of terror wrought by Monroe, Corell and Culling. Will he be sucked in and destroyed, or can he battle through and finally find peace?


Richard, former top jockey and BBC presenter rode Crisp in the famous 1973 Grand National. Joe McNally is a racing journalist and ex-marketing manager for the Grand National.
