Scavengers is #1 in the series by publication date and serves fine as an intro, although there is now a prequel too: One Perfect Shot |

Free on Amazon today - No Human Involved by Barbara Seranella
'A former junkie-turned-auto mechanic, Miranda “Munch” Mancini just wants to make an honest living. But nothing in life is easy, and Munch’s hopes for a new life are dashed when her abusive father turns up murdered, and Munch is the main suspect. Staying clean is one thing, but staying off Detective Mace St. John’s radar, especially when a series of gruesome murders all point to Munch as the culprit, may prove impossible. Her only hope is to cut a deal with the detective, putting her own life on the line to catch a killer. But trust doesn’t come easily for ex-junkies, or for cops. The impulse to betray this precarious alliance may be too strong for either to resist – and may get both of them killed.'

Free on Amazon Today - Bad Wolf Chronicles by Tim McGregor
Detective Lara Mendes’s hard work finally pays off when she gets the chance to join the homicide detail. There’s only one catch; she has to partner up with a cop no one wants to work with. John Gallagher is a veteran homicide detective who loves stomping bad guys and hates partners. When the Lieutenant saddles him with this green kid named Mendes, his first reaction is to ditch her but a call comes in about a body on the river bank and the rotation says they’re up. What they find are human remains, mutilated and partially devoured. Their investigation reveals a killer stalking the city with a pack of vicious, feral dogs. And the suspect believes he is a werewolf. But this is Portland, where crazy bastards outnumber normal ones ten to one. Except there’s another catch. The crazy werewolf guy? He isn’t crazy...

Free Today on Amazon - Scherzo: Murder and Mystery in 18th Century Venice by Jim Williams
'MEET two unusual detectives. Ludovico - a young man who has had his testicles cut off for the sake of opera. And Monsieur Arouet - a fraudster, or just possibly the philosopher Voltaire. VISIT the setting. Carnival time in mid-18th century Venice, a city of winter mists, and the season of masquerade and decadence. ENCOUNTER a Venetian underworld of pimps, harlots, gamblers, forgers and charlatans. BEWARE of a mysterious coterie of aristocrats, Jesuits, Freemasons and magicians. DISCOVER a murder: that of the nobleman, Sgr Alessandro Molin, found swinging from a bridge with his innards hanging out and a message in code from his killer. Scherzo is a murder mystery of sparkling vivacity and an historical novel of stunning originality told with a wit and style highly praised by critics and nominated for the Booker Prize.'

I'm not a total fanatic about reading books only in series order, but still I would try, I think, to read them not too far out of order. |

I'm not sure whether I'm glad or not. I really liked Aaron Elkin's Gideon Oliver series. Still, no doubt they'll be on offer again someday. Perhaps the first one will even be free at some point. 15 days without an ebook purchase! |
