So here, at an introductory Kindle price of just 99 cents, is the latest full-length novel from the author of The Skull Ring, The Red Church, and Speed Dating with the Dead:

"A psychological thriller that grabs you by the throat and doesn’t let go, not even at its shocking conclusion."--Vicky Tyley, Thin Blood and Sleight Malice

99 cents for a limited time. DRM-free and professionally formatted by Dellaster Design.

Identical twins vie for a family empire built on deceit, cruelty, and dark secrets--and one woman stands between them while another waits in the shadows.

DISINTEGRATION

When a mysterious fire destroys his home and shatters his family, Jacob Wells is pulled into a downward spiral that draws him ever closer to the past he thought was dead and buried.

Now his twin brother Joshua is back in town, seeking to settle old scores and claim his half of the Wells birthright. Jacob’s wife Renee is struggling with her own past and her attempts to salvage Jacob are driven by guilt and ambition.

As Jacob and Joshua return to the twisted roles they adopted at the hands of cruel, demanding parents, they wage a war of pride, wealth, and passion. They share a poisonous obsession with the provocative, manipulative Carlita, whose immigrant family helped build the Wells fortune.

Joshua wants other things, too, but Jacob’s desires are divided between the forbidden love he can’t possess, the respectability he can never have, and the revenge he is dying to taste. And Renee has dark motives of her own.

If only Jacob can figure out which of them to blame. But the lines of identity are blurred, because Joshua and Jacob share much more than blood.

And the childhood games have become deadly serious.

Kindle Nation Daily Free Book Alert, Saturday, October 30: Three Free Hallowe'en Treats, plus ... the perfect way to begin a weekend of sheer terror with three Gothic novellas in one scary package from IncuBooks author Zoe Winters (Today's Sponsor), and over 100 other fully updated free Kindle ebook listings

It's trick or treat time in my neighborhood, and publishers are playing along by offering lengthy free previews of forthcoming novels as an enticing temporary fix for fans (in the case of two new James Patterson offerings) or as a way of introducing undiscovered gems (in the case of a free preview of an intriguing new Oliver Pötzsch thriller that AmazonCrossing has brought out just in time for Hallowe'en). We're sometimes a bit suspicious of the implicit bait-and-switch nature of such deals, but we reap what we sow. During the past couple of weeks we've offered our readers substantial free excerpts from two Joe Konrath books that have moved with lightning speed up the ranks of Kindle bestsellers, so who are we to complain? So we'll place three of these free previews at the top of today's free listings, and if you don't feel you've been treated, perhaps you'll trick us by soaping our windows or wrapping our house in tissue....

But first, a word from ... Today's Sponsor

Speaking of Hallowe'en, I can't think of a better way to begin a weekend of sheer terror than to share three of IncuBooks author Zoe Winters' Gothic novellas with you -- all between the virtual covers of one nicely priced Kindle book! With Blood Lust, it's like reaching into the Hallowe'en candy bowl with your eyes closed and getting a handful of scary vampire treats. After all, in the end, it's all about the blood....

Comprised of three novellas, Blood Lust gives readers a snapshot look at the world of the Preternaturals Series. And, unlike the free previews mentioned above, each of these tales is a full, self-contained novella. Here's the set-up:
 
KEPT:
Greta's werecat blood is already sought after to enhance spells and potions, but due to a quirk of her birth, her blood is potent enough to kill for. When her tribe plans to sacrifice her, Greta must ally herself with Dayne, the dangerous local sorcerer, the only person strong enough to protect her.

CLAIMED:
For a vampire, Anthony isn't a picky eater, but he's drawn to Charlee's blood more than any other. One night, high from the potent magical blood of another, he claims his prize and loses control. Ashamed of almost killing the one woman he cares about, he wipes her memory of the event. When Charlee awakens with complete amnesia, Anthony is the only one who can clean up the mess he's made.

MATED:
Because of the vampiric blood that has run through her veins since birth, Jane has been a target for vampires who resent a human being "kindred." She's forced to disguise herself as a vampire groupie to appease them and safeguard her life. When she's abruptly given to Cole, the leader of the werewolf pack, to satisfy a gambling debt, she discovers the blood running through her veins has a far greater impact on her destiny than she ever imagined.
