I've read the blurb and a few reviews and it sounds to me as if overall it hews too closely to the source history. I personally tend to find that kind of pastiche to be tedious; I'd rather the author use it as a jumping-off point. |

Dixie City Jam is now $0.99 in the US, and discountable at Kobo. My non scientifically rigorous impression is that Burke's books go on sale a lot, but rarely this low. The Kindle link still works and here's for Kobo US: https://www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/dixie-city-jam-5

Scarpetta is somewhat frustratingly (since the title makes it hard to search for independently from the series) the sixteenth book in Patricia Cornwell's Kay Scarpetta series. It's $1.99 right now in the US.

It turns out that Leigh Perry is a pen name for Toni LP Kelner, whose Laura Fleming series I have vague but warm memories of from DTB days. And as Leigh Perry, she has more recently written the Family Skeleton series, featuring a skeleton named Sid. I haven't tried this series, which looks super cozy, but the fifth book, The Skeleton Makes a Friend, is now $0.99 at Kindle US, and so I may give it a try.

The Singing Sands is the fifth Alan Grant book by Josephine Tey, or the sixth if you count Grant’s appearance as a minor character in The Franchise Affair. It’s on sale for $2.99 in the US right now. Of course, if you are lucky enough to be in one of the countries where copyright laws already put The Singing Sands in the public domain, you can download for free from Faded Page or Project Gutenberg Canada, and probably some other PD websites too.

The Dark Heart of Florence is the fifteenth Lady Emily by Tasha Alexander. It's on sale in the US for $1.99. I had a review copy of this, and liked it pretty well, although I'm not a huge fan of the dual-timeline thing. But Florence as a setting helps a lot!

The fourth and fifth books in Dana Cameron's Emma Fielding series are $0.99 each in the US. These don't go on sale that often, so grab them if you want them...

It looks as if Sue Henry got back the rights to some of her Jessie Arnold/Alaska books, which have been re-pubbed by Speaking Volumes, which sounds like an audiobook publisher, but doesn't seem to be. And then a bunch of others still have e-books by HarperCollins. Although the two different publishers are scattered throughout the series, which is kind of odd - usually the early books are one publisher and the later books another. But in any case, HarperCollins have been slowly putting some of the books they are publishing on sale from time to time, and now it's the ninth book, Cold Company, on sale in the US for $1.99.
