I was at the library and found the Dick Francis shelf so I picked up a couple. The first is Slay Ride which I realized I had already read-but it had been several years and Francis is a good enough writer to reread. This one is set in Norway so that's a bit of a twist for Francis. The second one is Silks-just as good as expected. This one was co-written by his son whose name I cannot remember right now.

I also picked up a few by G.M. Ford. He writes the Leo WAterman series and the Frank Corso series. The first one is called Nameless Night. The copywrite is 2008 and it's his first stand alone protagonist without a coming sequel. Paul Hardy has was a John Doe found almost dead, mentally disabled, and sent to an adult group home. After a car accident he awakens with a new face and no sign of being disabled other than no memory of his life before the group home. It then becomes a story of his search for who he used to be and Homeland Security gone awry.

One more really short-Stonefather by Orson Scott Card. I'm not usually a fantasy buff but I like Card's sci-fi so I thought I'd give it a shot-yep, I'm not really a fantasy buff. That said, if you are it's not too bad-and very short!
