Seared, by Sandra Gustafsson. (Still 0.99?)"Incredibly intense story. Sandra Gustafssons prose is precise and fascinating. Every word is emotionally charged and the book is so psychologically intense you almost forget to breathe. Magnificently written." -- Amazon Reviewer
"Seared is a psychological thriller in the style of Gone Girl"
- Red City Review
This is definitely a novel that should be read by people who enjoy intense psychological stories. It is not a light read.

Helena is incarcerated. She has crossed the lines, but what has she done?
Once a week, Helena see a psychologist and talks with him, and the truth is presented piece by piece. For several years she had a relationship with a man who gave her the courage to live, despite her dark secrets, but she was always "the other woman" and finally Helena's fragile world crashes. We meet Helena in shards: talks with the psychologist interspersed with flashbacks to her childhood and Helena's inner conversation with the love of her life.
The story is full of nerves and tension rises with the realization of who Helena really is.
Seared is a psychological thriller that insightfull depicts a broken womans desperate attempts to create a life worth living.

Miami Requiem: A Crime Thriller (Deborah Jones Crime Thriller Series Book 1), by J.B. Turner. (Still free?)"An extremely well written thriller set in a newspaper office. I particularly liked the descriptions of the characters who came to life on the page. It was a joy to read a well copy edited and proofread book. Fast paced and energetic storyline was genuinely worth five stars." -- Amazon Reviewer
A devastating race-against-time crime thriller for fans of John Grisham, Sara Paretsky, James Patterson, and Karin Slaughter.
'She wanted the truth. They wanted her dead'.
Since her first day on the Miami Herald, rookie reporter Deborah Jones has been agitating for a shot at one particular story. William Craig is on Death Row, convicted of killing Senator Jack O'Neill's only son. There is no question of his guilt. Craig murdered the young man who was acquitted of raping his granddaughter. There are only five weeks and one day until his execution. And Craig has not given a single interview. Deborah Jones has assembled a whole dossier on the case, including court transcripts and every newspaper clipping. She wants to know what prompted Craig to exact revenge. And she has her own, very personal reasons for wishing to uncover the truth. Managing editor of the Herald Sam Goldberg is well aware that Senator O'Neill, a vengeful man, has powerful friends, some with Mob links. The two men have crossed swords on a number of occasions. But against his better judgement, he decides to give Deborah a chance to prove herself. Only with one warning - 'Be careful. Florida may be the Sunshine State to most people. But it's not. It's a swamp. Don't ever forget that.'
