Courtesy of Mysterious Press, Stuart Kaminsky's Tarnished Icons is $1.99 at Amazon US
http://www.amazon.com/Tarnished-Insp.../dp/B009H707CI

at Barnes & Noble: http://www.barnesandnoble.com/s/tarn...arnished+icons

and possibly other stores.

This is the 11th book in Kaminsky's Inspector Porfiry series, a police procedural set in Russia. The late Kaminsky did as good a job as anyone, in my opinion, of writing believable characters with a lot of depth, and the series has been praised for accurate depictions of life in Russia. His backlist doesn't go on sale often, and is usually on the expensive side ($7.99 seems typical). If you're inclined, these price drops don't seem to last long, and I think this was last reduced for a brief time in late 2013.

Edit: just noticed that A Cold Red Sunrise, book 5 in the same series, is also on sale at $1.99.

Probably the same price at all the stores above, and as rarely available at sale pricing.
