Getting Away is Deadly: A Mom Zone Mystery, by Sara Rosett

Book Description
Air Force wife and professional organizer Ellie Avery goes to Washington, D.C., expecting some R&R while her pilot husband attends classes - but it's Ellie who gets a deadly lesson when this getaway turns out to be murder...

With swollen feet and swelling belly, pregnant Ellie bravely joins the nation's tourists in seeing the sights in Washington D.C. Husband Mitch has to attend military training, but as Ellie visits monuments and museums, she has other Air Force wives for company, including her best friend Abby. She also plans to catch-up with Mitch's scatter-brained sister Summer, who is finishing college while working as a nanny for a Washington media star, and do a personal favour for her favourite cousin.Factor in some serious shopping, and this sounds like a fun trip. But before she can take care of her cousin's request, the man she is supposed to meet breaks their date...because someone tried to kill him on his way to see her.

Is it a random mugging? Ellie almost buys that explanation. Then a fatal incident at the Metro station, Summer's furtive behaviour, and too many people telling lies, as well as keeping secrets, convince Ellie that something is rotten in the nation's capital. Should she do the safe thing and pack her bags? Not likely when Ellie Avery is just the right woman to clean up the most mysterious cases of murder.

I bought the first one, Moving Is Murder, not too long ago, but have not read it yet. I was going to wait until after I did, to get the 2nd one, but with this one being free maybe I'll get Staying Home Is A Killer sooner.

I may pick up the first two, but I will read at least a couple of chapters on this free one first. They are, at least, reasonably priced (no $10 and up backlist titles).

1. Moving Is Murder (2006) $4.76
2. Staying Home Is a Killer (2007) $4.47
3. Getting Away is Deadly: A Mom Zone Mystery (2008) free
4. Magnolias, Moonlight, and Murder (2009) $4.47
5. Mint Juleps, Mayhem, and Murder (2010) $4.76
6. Mimosas, Mischief, and Murder (2011) $9.99

And it's only $0.99 for the Nook:

Numbers 1, 2, 4, and 5 in the series are in the $4 - $5 range for the Nook too. Looks like a cute series to try. Bizarre that #3 is the one on sale, though.

And, just for fun, I also checked Kobo, since Kobo has a couple of good coupons floating around right now, including Mar28US30 for 30% off through March 30.

UPDATE: I just noticed that these are Adobe DRM .pdf, so just be aware...

Kobo has four of the titles in the series:


#2 Staying at Home is a Killer is $4.99, but coupon-able, and the 30% coupon brings it down to $3.49:

#4 Magnolias, Moonlight and Murder, which is also $4.99, but down to $3.49 with the coupon:

HOWEVER, #5 Mint Juleps, Mayhem, and Murder at $14.39 before coupon and $10.07 after IS NOT A BARGAIN compared to Nook and Kindle

AND NEITHER IS #3 Getting Away is Deadly, the Kindle freebie/Nook cheapie that started this thread.
