Price drops on mysteries and other books, both in the US, and the UK. These may be short-lived so grab them if you want them!
I don’t usually do individual posts for sale prices on books, when I already have a thread (or two) going for the author/series. But I was so excited to see Robert Jackson Bennett’s A Trade of Blood on sale in the UK for £0.99 that I’m doing one. And this is it… A Trade of […]

Different bunches of Kate Sedley’s Roger the Chapman books have been through more publishers than I can keep track of, especially with different publishers in the US and UK. They’ve variously been with Minotaur, Severn House, Canelo, and I’m probably forgetting some. And some of the later books have gone on sale a lot, as

Joffe Books seem to have picked up Adrian Magson’s Harry Tate series when they acquired Severn House. And now the first book in the series, Rogue Agent (originally published as Red Station) is free at Kindle US and UK, probably just for a few more hours. These are a little thriller-ish for me, but I’ve

I’ve read and liked all, or almost all ???, of Catriona McPherson’s Dandy Gilver series, but have only read one of her Last Ditch series, even though the protagonist is a Scot who has relocated to California, where I live. And which I love. And which location usually gets me to move books further up

John Creasey wrote what is, IMO, one of the best long-lived police procedural series, featuring George Gideon of Scotland Yard and his crew. These books were originally written starting in the 1950s, using one of Creasey’s pen names, JJ Marric. Per SYKM, the seventh book, Gideon’s Fire, won the 1962 Edgar Award for Best Mystery (and the
The Evil That Men Do is the third in the Pierre Chambrun series by Hugh Pentecost, which is a pen name for Judson Pentecost Philips, who, per SYKM, won the Grand Master Award from the Mystery Writers of America in 1973. And it’s free right now in the US. I read most or all of

Kobo has revived their buy $50, get a $10 bonus card offer for the US July 4th. The offer expires July 6. However, kind of unusually, the offer doesn’t show up at Kobo UK. Kobo usually has the gift card offer across multiple country stores, even if it’s linked to a US holiday. I haven’t

I’ve just noticed that several of the Daisy Gumm Majesty 3-book box sets (by Alice Duncan) are on sale for $0.99/£0.72 in the US/UK right now. These are really nice prices if you need all three books in each omnibus, but are still good prices even if you already have one or two of them.
Julie Moffett’s Lexi Carmichael series is mostly pretty cozy, although with touches of thriller, which maybe makes sense for a series whose protagonist is a computer geek (cozy) who works for the National Security Agency (thriller). But either way, it’s a lot of fun if you’re in the mood for something light-hearted. And the series
