Dead Creek is the second in the Loon Lake series by Victoria Houston. It has dropped to $1.99 at Kindle and Kobo US. The first in this series, Dead Angler, has been a long time cheapie at $0.99 for months, and free on brief occasions, so if you want to read in order, the first couple of titles won't set you back too much. Anyway, here's the info...

Perhaps you'll be interested in today (Sunday's) deal
Books 2-7 of Leigh Russell's DI Geraldine Steel series. Book 1 seems to be also available at £0.99. "When DI Geraldine Steel relocates to the quiet rural town of Woolsmarsh, she expects to find her new home to be somewhere where nothing much ever happens; a space where she can battle her demons in private. But when she finds herself pitted against a twisted killer preying on local young women she quickly discovers how wrong she is..." |

Thanks for the heads-up pdurrant. Looked at the deal and its contents. It seems that almost all of that series is based either on serial killers or on the protagonist's personal problems - and (though I'm probably the only one), TBH, it's all getting a bit 'sameish' to me; there's not enough variety any more. You'd never catch Christie, Sayers, Ormerod, Straker, Gregson et al. going down the same path time after time.......

I pass no comment on the content of the series.
But I've managed to resist all the Amazon daily deals this month. It's doing wonders for my TBR pile! |

Back in 2016, Strong Poison (6th in the Lord Peter/Harriet Vane series by Dorothy L Sayers) was briefly $0.06 at Kindle US. If you missed that, it has now dropped to $0.51, which is still not bad at all...

Swan Song, by Robert R. McCammon, looks more thriller-ish than mystery-ish, and also has paranormal elements, neither of which excites me. However, it has dropped to only $0.23 at Kindle US, so if that sort of thing is your sort of thing, you may want to take a look. Oh yeah, and it won the Bram Stoker award in 1987...

P.S. Has anyone read any of this author's historical mysteries? I really like historicals, but haven't run into any of his before. Just wondering if anyone has an opinion? Last edited by sufue; 01-29-2017 at 10:27 AM. |
