 It says

I was hooked from the first paragraph of The Night Charter (no pun intended) and you will be too. Open up the pages and meet Camaro Espinoza, ex-Army medic, ex-Californian, and now on the lam for killing five men in New York. All she wants is to lay low in Florida but luckily for us, her greatest adventure is getting started. So what are you waiting for? Jump in!!

On the lam! I love it.

The Night Charter by Sam Hawken

Exactly one year ago, Camaro Espinoza killed five bad men in New York City and fled town. Now she’s keeping a low profile in Miami, running night charter catch-and-release fishing trips off the coast. It’s a simple life for a former combat medic. But it wasn’t easy to come by. Camaro plans to do everything she can to hold onto it.

Trouble comes knocking in the form of Parker Story, a man in over his head with all the wrong people. Parker wants to book Camaro’s boat to run a small errand off the coast of Cuba. Camaro knows she shouldn’t get involved. But Parker’s got a teenaged daughter named Lauren, and Parker’s associates have threatened to harm her if the mission doesn’t go off without a hitch. Camaro has never met the girl. Barely seen her picture. But that doesn’t mean she can ignore her plight.

Camaro’s used to being wanted–by men good and bad, by soldiers wounded on the field of battle, by the long arm of the law. But she’s never been needed before. Not the way Lauren needs her. Joining forces with Parker, Camaro soon finds herself in the midst of double crosses, international intrigue, broken promises and scattered bullets. Even a skilled warrior like herself may not be able to escape unscathed.

This jacket text was so over the top that I took a photo of it but it was also on Amazon, so I just copied it here. This is probably the first book in a new crime series and if I like it, what a fun and inexpensive way to get into it! I loved the noir vivid vibe of what I’ve read so far!

I think the premise of this subscription is cool, and it’s a great way to discover some new books inexpensively – way less than Amazon, and the books they select are all new hardcover releases.  The monthly price is $16.99 per month, $11.99 per month on a year long subscription.  You can get 3 and 12 month ($11.99 per month!) memberships $10 off. Use Book Of The Month Invitation Code BOOK10 as the coupon code for this deal. Select a book by February 15!
