Everyone Burns - John Dolan
4.9 (23 reviews)
Free until 2 June 2013
It is January 2005 and the charred remains of two Europeans have been discovered on the Thai island of Samui.
Local Police Chief Charoenkul, sidelined by his superiors, enlists the reluctant David Braddock, a burnt-out private detective, to assist in an ‘unofficial’ investigation.
But Braddock has problems of his own, including an affair with the same Police Chief’s wife ...
Peppered with irreverent humour and some pithy comments on everyday life in the Land of Smiles, Everyone Burns is much more than a crime novel. It is also a carefully-crafted psychological study of an anti-hero for our time.

Four Days with Hemingway’s Ghost is not a story of spooks and goblins. It's a powerful story about two men from two very different times. One man is mortal, the other is immortal. One is painfully ordinary, the other world famous.
Jack Phelan is a forty-two-year-old underachiever who lives in South Florida. Although he mows lawns for a living, he’s not what you might expect. He’s got an exceptionally sharp mind and is a self-educated Hemingway aficionado.
After Jack gets into an unlikely accident he's flown by helicopter to the nearest hospital, where he remains in a coma for four days. But somehow, minutes after he blacks out, he finds himself in Key West, Florida--rubbing shoulders with an aged Ernest Hemingway.

Memoirs of an Asshole (Why Men are Jerks) - Rick Armstrong
5 (2 reviews)
Free until 30 May 2013
'I have over the years, after much thought, consultation, meditation and soul searching, come to the only conclusion any semi-sensible, sane man can come to. I am an asshole.'
If Robert Anderson had a dollar for every time he was called a very bad name, well he’d have money, instead of going through life broke. Every derogatory name under the sun has been used to describe him but the one that stands out the most is ‘asshole,’ with ‘jerk’ being a close runner up. It has been said so often that over the years Rob has started to believe it or at the very least understand why people would say that of him.
Maybe it was the contest he organized involving midgets, maybe the fist fight with the large monkey while taking a shower in Senegal, maybe it was the Mexican brothel, maybe it was the odd skewed way he looked at the world around him. It could be the three ex-wives. Or maybe just maybe people are right. Maybe Robert Francis Anderson is just an asshole. He would like to think that it just wasn't so but then again who is he to argue.
The decision is yours to make.

Ketchum and Cobb - James Mullen
5 (6 reviews)
Free until 30 May 2013
For nine days in October of 1990, two Boston homicide detectives, Ketchum and Cobb, investigate the brutal murder of a South Boston man in his living room. For each, the case knifes through the middle of their lives. With Cobb, it's heavy weather and high seas because he's grieving over his son's suicide from four years ago. With Ketchum, it's a chance at some sunshine - he thinks he's found the love of his life, but his heart hesitates. Will she really be attracted to a guy like me, he wonders?
As they encounter characters in a South Boston bar who have tenuous connections to the dark side of Boston, they lighten the demands of the job through banter and philosophically posit important questions such as why, with three million people, you can't get a decent pizza in Chicago? Or more importantly, why are there no cheerleaders in baseball?
