NEW YORK, NY - With over 48 published novels in diverse genres, including children's fiction, paranormal, adventure and crime, fans of New York Times bestselling author Ridley Pearson can now read five of his best suspense thrillers in eBook. RosettaBooks, the leading independent eBook publisher, has published his bestseller Undercurrents, Blood of the Albatross, Hidden Charges, Never Look Back and Probable Cause.

Undercurrents, one of Pearson's best-known crime novels, contained cutting-edge forensic ideas that helped solve a real-life homicide case. Pearson's research has spanned the globe and included everything from the engine room of a cruise liner, to a nighttime visit to Walt Disney World's It's A Small World ride, to a locked-room visit with inmates at a prison for the criminally insane. He has aided authorities in solving multiple homicides and was briefly a silent contributor to an FBI task force charged with the manhunt for the Washington, D.C. sniper.

Over the years, Pearson's work has been published in two dozen languages and has been adapted by network television and for the Broadway stage. Pearson was the first American to receive the Raymond Chandler Fulbright fellowship at Oxford University. He was also a founding member and bass player for the Rock Bottom Remainders, a band comprised of best-selling authors including Dave Barry and Stephen King.

Pearson's five eBooks, with fully redesigned covers, are now under $2 in the Kindle store through July 25 midnight.

Past praise for Undercurrents:

The undercurrents in this vivid, compulsively readable novel never stop swirling, just like the tides in Puget Sound..." - Booklist

"Pearson here milks the police procedural for all it's worth, coming up with a read-through-the-night story that's a savory treat." - Kirkus

"He has... an authentic feeling for police investigation and forensic medicine, and a remarkable insight and understanding of the motivations of the criminal mind." - Publishers Weekly
