Inspector Lorne Simpkins and her partner, DS Pete Childs are assigned the case.
Before they can discover the identity of the killer they must make a connection

After a third murder, Lorne receives a grisly surprise. Clearly, a vicious
serial killer is on a rampage...and Lorne has become the killer's fixation.

Lorne can't allow her failing marriage or her new boss--a man with whom she
shares a sensuous secret--keep her from focusing on her job. She must catch the
macabre murderer, or risk becoming the next victim.

Approx 88,000 words

If you like the work of Carl Hiassen, Donald E. Westlake, Douglas Adams or Evelyn Waugh, those are some of the authors Amazon readers have compared Boomerang to.

Ted Hogwood's beloved Sarah, a jazz guitar, is in the window of Topp Dollar Pawn. The only way he can get the money to rescue her is to accept an assignment from the AABC, a not nearly official branch of the United States intelligence community. He is partnered with Jerry Kwiatkowski, master of the Hammond B-3 organ and chronic flatulence sufferer, to steal a boomerang containing secrets that should have died with J. Edgar Hoover over thirty years ago. It would be a simple job if only they knew what they were doing. And if a crossbow wielding assassin, two unemployed Australian women, The Director of Central Intelligence and a clothing optional former onion festival queen were not also hot on the boomerang's trail.

Just $2.99


And you are an Amazon Prime member, you can borrow Boomerang for free!

ELIZABETH’S SECRETS is half price from Kindle for Mother’s Day to remember my mother. Monday May 7th, through Sunday May 13th.
A STORY OF LOSS, GREED, AND BETRAYAL

“I was 43 when the love of my life died at my hand.” Elizabeth McKenna’s first journal entry begins an amazing story of her descent into despair and a long arduous trek back to the world of the emotionally balanced.

Devastated by the death of her true love, haunted by a family curse, and pursued by a misogynistic ex-husband, Elizabeth crosses the American continent alone in an antique monoplane searching for answers. Through the kindness of strangers, she finds many of the answers she seeks. Finally, forced to confront her past, she reveals her most guarded secret and comes face-to-face with her demons, real and imagined. From desperation, she learns the true meaning of friendship, strength, and redemption.

Elizabeth’s Secrets is a soulful, heart-wrenching tale of good versus evil, a magical story teeming with self-realization and determination. Within Bette McKenna’s words, we feel every beat of her resolute heart. Through hopeful blue eyes, we envision a brilliant world of spirituality, compassion, and breathtaking beauty.

Dark Star is free from Kindle Wednesday and Thursday, May 9 & 10, 2012.
“Dear God,” down on his knees, James David Deacon Jones prayed in a loud, clear voice to the eerie, black Missouri sky. “Please forgive me my sins and for the life I have led. Lord, if you cannot absolve me, please take from me this wretched existence.” So begins the story of Deacon Jones, a sensitive tortured genius. His was always a journey of hope defeated by disappointment, good intentions overcome by darkness, and friendship ruined by mistrust. Finally, at twenty-eight years of age he meets Estrella Star del Rio and instantly believes that she is the cure for all that is wrong in his life. Deacon thinks he has found true happiness, and then the real horror begins.

Dark Star is a masterful tale of star-crossed or star-cursed lovers, a story brimming with hope, despair, suspense, and deceit.

Hi everyone,

Please check out The Super Spud Trilogy, out now on Kindle.

Genetic engineering has accomplished many things, one of which has been to create the Super Spud! The humble potato elevated to new heights, creating the most flavoursome crisps ever known to humankind! But that's not all - A magical transformation occurs to all Super Spud crisps not eaten before their use-by date. They take on a life of their own. And so long as they remain undetected by humans, they enjoy life in their own Super Spud cities, take part in major Super Spud sporting events and even start the odd Super Spud war or two. Join Colin, Cougar, Hannibal Vector, Generals Rock, Jock and Strap and all the others in their rollicking adventures. You'll never look at a packet of crisps in the same way again! Fun, quirky and totally original.

Any questions about the book and I'd be happy to answer, just PM me. And to those who download the book, still only 1.95 ( no pound sign on my keyboard...), thank you and hope you enjoy it!

Michael

Except he sees things differently now; he falls in love and makes a friend in a member of the Felum, a vicious human/cat hybrid tribe. He doesn't want responsibility. Only he might have it thrust upon him when he becomes embroiled in a conspiracy to kill the gods; a plot that could lead everyone he loves into mortal danger...

Hi all-
I'm Beth Cornelison and I'm new here. I wanted to let you know about my contemporary romance, TRUST IN ME, which is FREE on Kindle May 3- 7th.


Trust In Me- A hero for the rest of us?

Escaping the cheating fiancé and sheltered life her father has arranged for her, Claire Albritton wants nothing more than to take control of her life and learn to fight her own battles.

Kevin Fuller believes he must rescue damsels in distress and Claire is decidedly out of her element in small town South Carolina. When trouble inevitably finds Claire, Kevin's white knight protection and heroics are exactly what Claire doesn't want. But his kisses...that's another matter.

I hope you'll take a look (Get it here), and I look forward to hearing about other author's books! Have a great day!

Hi!

My thriller Drop By Drop is free for download on Amazon.com through Saturday.

Here's what the Anthony and Agatha award winner Hank Phillippi Ryan said: "Intriguing, intense, and with such an insider's knowledge of the war on terror that I'm surprised it's not classified. Sinister, scary, and heart-stoppingly realistic - this is a gem of a thriller!" And here's the take of Andrew Gross, the New York Times best-selling author and co-author of six #1 thrillers with James Patterson: "No one puts the crosshairs on Washington, terrorism, and intrigue better than Keith Raffel. Do yourself a favor and read Drop By Drop!"

Take a look yourself! http://www.amazon.com/Drop-By-Thrill...6064086&sr=8-1

Thanks! Keith Raffel

April was a VERY exciting month for me in that my horror/historical DEVIL TREE bagged a half a dozen new Amazon reviews. An entire book club decided to read the e-book and post their reviews, some of them on Amazon, some of them on their own websites. The e-book continues to be my bestseller in spite of the other ten e-books I've got available.

Do me a favor and give this book a try today.
