Free (nook/Kindle/Sony) The Eighth Day by Tom Avitabile [Action/Conspiracy Thriller]
The Eighth Day by Tom Avitabile is a mysterious maybe-conspiracy/action thriller which unusually, has a Science Advisor as the head of its team of oddball threat-thwarting experts (usually it's ex-CIA/FBI/military guys when it isn't some unlucky academic who's secretly stumbled onto some grand historical secret worth killing for). This is free courtesy of newbie independent imprint The Fiction Studio, which is run by ex-Big-6 editor Lou Aronica.
Currently free @ B&N and Amazon UK, likely to drop in the main store and may show up at Sony as well. Description A chemical engineer sets in motion a horrendous explosion killing hundreds of commuters and himself. Hollywood’s hottest sex symbol assassinates a sitting senator. A grandmother stages a sophisticated attack on a train causing massive damage. An airplane full of Silicon Valley’s brightest is blown up while refueling. A series of deadly, unrelated events or the unlikely start of an insidious new terror network? As Science Advisor to the President, William “Wild Bill” Hiccock is tasked with assembling a team to identify and stop the threat, whether homegrown or foreign. His team – a retired Navy admiral, a wise-guy computer hacker sprung from federal prison, and his ex-wife, a leading behavioral psychologist – must identify and destroy their elusive adversary who always seems to be a step ahead." |

EDIT: I take that back. It's listed as free, but when I put it in my cart they want to charge me $3.79 for the thing. |

Those tricksy price-updating bobble-birds do like to keep you on your toes. This is why I make sure to have the shopping-cart system instead of Buy Now turned on, always.*
* Quite aside from the fact that I despise no-confirmation 1-click auto-purchasing. |
