Fans of Indiana Jones, Brad Meltzer and the writing duo of Preston & Child will love this week's Free Fridays selection: From the Ashesby Jeremy Burns.
Burns' conspiracy thriller gets off to a fast start. Michael Rickner, the son of an eminent archaeologist, is found dead of an apparent suicide, but his brother Jonathan knows that something more sinister is at play. The brothers have traveled the world investigating historical mysteries, and this time Michael may have stumbled too close to the truth. Michael's death came just as he was close to revealing a plot that tied together the Hoover Administration, the Rockefellers, and the rise of Nazi Germany, and some powerful forces would do anything to keep the connection a secret.
Now Jonathan and his fiancée are looking for clues in Jonathan's work, hoping to prove his suspicions and reveal a terrible decades-old conspiracy.

Free Fridays Recommends
Each week, we ask our featured author to recommend a book or author that you may want to check out. Since authors are such passionate readers themselves, we thought you might like to find out what they love to read, too! Here’s what Jeremy recommends:
Historical intrigue meets cutting-edge science in Spiral by Paul McEuen, a fascinating bioterrorism conspiracy thriller. McEuen, a Cornell professor and leading authority in the burgeoning field of nanotechnology, infuses his high-stakes tale with layers of insider details of setting and subject matter that not only engross readers deeper in the story, but also illuminate our understanding of hidden history and real-life scientific wonders. This book kept me guessing right up to the end and kept me thinking long afterwards. Highly recommended.
