Allan Guthrie's Two-Way Split is on sale for .99, from 2.99:
Two-Way Split Winner of the Theakston's Old Peculier Crime Novel of the Year Robin Greaves is an armed robber whose professionalism is put to the test when he discovers his wife has been sleeping with a fellow gang member. Robin plans the ultimate revenge, but things go from bad to worse when the gang bungles a post office robbery, leaving carnage in their wake. Suddenly they are stalked by the police, sleazy private eyes, and a cold-blooded killer who may be the only one not looking for a cut of the money. |

Gaaa...I've been wanting to read Graham Hurley's UK series with Joe Farraday for a long time, so finally, after double-checking that the first in series wasn't available for kindle in either US or UK, I broke down and ordered from Book Depository (which I've been trying sooo hard to stop doing) and the book arrived last week. Still unread, but of course that's a different story...
Then after the Friday night commute from hell, I settle down to a nice browse through ereaderiq, and what's the first thing that pops up: The Turnstone, first in the series and the DTB I got last week - freshly kindle-ized for $2.99 instead of the $12 I paid... So okay, thanks for listening to my rant, if anybody's interested, looks like he's self-pubbing the first three in the series, plus a book about the series, plus a bunch of his stand-alones from the 90's. Here are the search results on Amazon (including of course the usual random outlier that's not meant to be part of the search...) Graham Hurley Happy weekend everybody, I'm off for a glass of wine, to chase down my whine... |

Methinks the author messed up the tagging, Turnstone is #69 in Kindle Store > Kindle eBooks > Children's eBooks > Fairy Tales, Folk Tales & Myths > Greek & Roman???
Thanks for the recommendation. |

Back to Wakefield Press - another good Australian author is Patricia Carlon, but I do not think we will see her in ebooks (other than the two they already have), as she was published in paper by Soho, and they are not even showing her listed at their website, and she is now deceased. Soooo - I broke down and ordered all the used paper ones from Amazon at under $4.00 each. Quote:
The Whispering Wall was particularly like this. The main character was in some sort of vegetative state, and Carlon was really great with evoking the claustrophobic feeling. She writes primarily psychological suspense and has been compared to Ruth Rendell. Patricia Carlon Books |

To the anonymous reader who sent me the Hurley book from my wishlist: thank you so much for your kindness and taking the time to brighten up what was starting out as a rotten weekend (the book story was just me letting off steam from all kinds of other Friday *stuff*.) You're a champ!

Nope they were free. I picked up the ones I didn't already have too. Unfortunately you were too late. These specials are often only reduced for one day or less and you have to be quick!
