From the Ashes (US/UK), by Jeremy Burns, is free in the Kindle store and from Barnes & Noble. The publisher, Fiction Studio, has another 13 titles on sale right now for $1.99 or less (Kindle, B&N), ten of which are apparently in my library, already!
This one doesn't have any reviews yet at Amazon, but I'd definitely ignore the reviews on B&N, as they seem to all be complaints by those who can't figure out how to find the Free Friday book blog using their Nook.

A DEADLY CONSPIRACY
Graduate students Jonathan and Michael Rickner, sons of eminent archeologist Sir William Rickner, are no strangers to historical mysteries and archeological adventures. But when Michael is discovered dead in his Washington, D.C. apartment, Jon refuses to believe the official ruling of suicide. Digging deeper into his brother’s work, he discovers evidence that Michael was murdered to keep his dissertation research buried.
A DEVASTATING NATIONAL SECRET
Joined by Michael’s fiancĂ©e Mara Ellison, Jon travels to New York where he uncovers the threads of a deadly Depression-era conspiracy – one entangling the Hoover Administration, the Rockefellers, and the rise of Nazi Germany – and the elite cadre of assassins that still guard its unspeakable secret.
THE LABYRINTHINE PATH TO THE TRUTH
Finding themselves in the crosshairs of the same men who killed Michael, Jon and Mara must navigate a complex web of historical cover-ups and modern-day subterfuge, outwitting and outrunning their all-powerful pursuers as they race through the monuments and museums of Manhattan in a labyrinthine treasure hunt to discover the last secret of John D. Rockefeller, Jr., before their enemies can bury the truth – and them – forever.
