GA Russell · 08-21-2011, 02:46 AM

I third The Moonstone.

GA Russell · 08-21-2011, 03:00 AM

I nominate Quiller Barracuda by Adam Hall, which was released as an eBook only three weeks ago at Amazon, and at a price of only $5.50.

All five Amazon reviews give it five stars.

Quiller is up against "a vast international conspiracy to use mind control to secure a Presidential election". Amazon's Product Description: "Quiller's latest field mission on behalf of British Intelligence is to discover whether a fellow British agent, located in Miami, is secretly working for another government or organization. Quiller finds himself in the crosshairs of the Florida mafia, Soviet spies and a cabal bent on world domination as he struggles to uncover the truth."

Done.

I'll second Bruno. I think the location of a small town in France sounds interesting (the full title is apparently "Bruno, Chief Of Police: A Novel Of The French Countryside").

I'm glad "The Chinese Maze Murders" already has three votes; that'll save my last vote for something else, should I need it.

There are now seven fully nominated books. Three more and it's a wrap.

Only two more needed as there are now eight fully nominated books.

Please let us know if any corrections are needed.

I hope this is not the same Bruno the awful movie was made about.

You do know that nominating a book in a series that is not #1 is not going to win right?
