Fatal Bonds (Mischievous Malamute Mystery Series, Book 6) by Harley Christensen
Mystery, Suspense, Thriller
Face down a brutal killer and risk your life in the process? Or deny a friend’s final request and let a murderer roam free, while justice goes unserved?
Arianna Jackson has hunted down clues, pieced together impossible puzzles, and confronted the worst of humanity while narrowly escaping her own demise in the past. So while she’s not clear why she was chosen to solve a decades-old crime where others have failed, she’s never been one to back down from a challenge.
Determined to fulfill the duty entrusted to her, AJ quickly faces more obstacles than answers in her pursuit of the evidence needed to identify a cold-blooded killer. Every time she makes a bit of progress, another thread unravels, and a roadblock is tossed in her path.
It doesn’t help matters when her single line of support seems to be among those derailing her efforts, so she is forced to rely on an unlikely ally, not knowing if he is friend or foe. Time is ticking away, and the bonds of friendship, family, and allies are fractured, leaving AJ to trust her instincts to ensure a savage murderer is brought to justice.
If you are captivated by stories packed with suspense-filled twists—the kind that keep you turning pages and guessing all the way to “The End”—then grab a copy of Fatal Bonds today and join AJ and Nicoh on their quest to expose a vicious killer and bring closure to the loved ones of a victim who can no longer speak.

War Paint by Brian Lehman
Thriller/Suspense/War
War Paint is a thriller and a naval warfare story like no other from the Vietnam War. It is April 1972 and the fading war has suddenly reawakened with the Easter Offensive, a massive invasion by North Vietnam into South Vietnam. U.S. troop strength has fallen to new lows and 20 year-old surfer and troublemaker Jeffs Ryder is a new member of the crew of a destroyer known as the Rat. He and his fiancée Cathy's lives are turned upside down as his ship and many others are suddenly sent to the war. But the most dangerous enemy is not the one they expect. A secret group committed to the destruction of the ship and an unbalanced navy fleet commander launch a conspiracy to send the warship into a confrontation with patrol boats armed with ship-killing missiles. As their possible doom inches ever closer, Jeffs and his shipmates continue to deal with separation from loved ones, dangerous attacks into enemy territory and shipboard life--all with ironic, sometimes comic and often tragic outcomes. War Paint is a look into the role of the navy in a lesser known chapter of the war and a captivating coming of age tale of high ranking treachery and heroism.

Crueler and More Unusual by Erik Dean
Science Fiction, Horror, Short Stories
Here are four stories of judicial horror from the award-winning author of Cryptic, Erik Dean.
DUMMY
Robert Holman failed to heed the warnings and an innocent night out turns into a nightmare. What punishment is fitting for this Dummy? He realizes too late that being sorry is not enough, and that there's no hiding from the vengeful hand of fate.
EARLY RELEASE
An amendment to the US Constitution allows for grieving families to apply for Early Release for the prisoners who murdered their loved ones. The prisoner is set loose and the family has twenty-four hours to exact their revenge. If they don't kill the prisoner within 24 hours, they're awarded their freedom.
Kelvin Heyer, a bank robber, is the lucky winner this time. Will he outrun his victim’s vengeful family long enough with a little help from a Friend?
PUBLIC POOL
Best friends and business partners Carlos and Luis are thrilled when their swimming pool design company wins the lucrative bid to build new public pools in Phoenix, Arizona. Their delight is spoiled by a business rival and Carlos’s growing—and mutual—attraction to Maria, Luis’s wife. Lust, passion, and greed quickly build up to murder and betrayal.
BROKEN JUSTICE
In the future, trials take place in small pods instead of courtrooms and most cars are driverless. Holly Barlow is one of the few people who still prefers to drive her own car, but she is caught speeding and must pay a fine. She quickly learns that the court pods do more than simply accept payments for fines—they can also vaporize lawbreakers, carrying out executions instantly... and automated systems are known to break down from time to time.
