Thanks for the suggestions.

I think you're the one who's recommended Phyrne Fisher mysteries in the past! I've looked at the descriptions, but for some reason they just don't grab me; I think I have the first e-book in the series as a freebie, so maybe one of these days ...

Also, there are Heyer mysteries, set in 1930's Britain, as well as her more well known Regency romances. For example, The Unfinished Clue, for $4.39 plus $2.99 for the Audible WhisperSync version.
I had overlooked Georgette Heyer's mysteries; that's a good suggestion, if I can convince myself to rebuy Kindle versions of books I bought as epubs.

But I think I'm going to go with Walter Lord's Miracle at Dunkirk. I got an Open Road e-mail showing the e-book on sale for $2, and then I realized I could borrow it for free through KU. Then the companion audiobook is only $4.
