There are a bunch of good (IMO) mysteries on sale at Amazon US as part of the US Kindle Big Deal, good from Sept 19 to Oct 5. I don't usually like to post Kindle's big sales, leaving that to others in other threads, but this one had enough good books in it that I felt it was worth it to tell folks in the mystery thread to go take a look if they haven't already.
I'm a big historical mystery fan, so I was happy to find of bunch of books by Bernard Knight, Michael Jecks, and Fiona Buckley. Buckley's Ursula Blanchard series, set in Elizabeth I's time, is one of my favorite historical mystery series. Several early ones in that series are part of this sale. AT Drake had mentioned the Jecks books in the Kobo thread a couple of days ago (

Just in a quick look through the rest, I spotted one or more books by G M Malliet, Lee Hollis, Tasha Alexander, Leena Lehtolainen, Molly Cox Bryan, Lynda La Plante, Jan Burke, Josephine Tey, Jess Lourey, Waverly Curtis, Edna Buchanan, Gladys Mitchell, Suzann Ledbetter, Camille Minichino, and Ed Gorman. Many of these I've read and enjoyed - if not the specific book, at least other books by the author. And I'm sure there are a bunch more good books that I just didn't spot or didn't recognize the authors off the top of my head.
Many have been on sale before, but some seemed new to me...
Most seem to be $1.99.
I'm in a bit of crunch with a deadline at work tomorrow, so haven't had a chance to check out other sites for price-matching, but I'll definitely be looking tomorrow after my deadline is over
