And now the 9th title in this series, Malice at the Palace, has dropped to $1.99 at Kindle and Kobo US. I note from the blurb that Lady Georgie is now 35th in line, not 34th - her brother must have had another kid .

Thirty-fifth in line for the British throne, Lady Georgiana Rannoch becomes embroiled in royal wrongdoing in the ninth mystery from the New York Times bestselling author of Crowned and Dangerous.

Caught between her high birth and empty purse, Georgie is relieved to receive a new assignment from the Queen. The King’s youngest son, George, is to wed Princess Marina of Greece, and the Queen wants Georgie to be her companion: showing her the best of London—and dispelling any rumors about George’s libertine history.

The prince is known for his many affairs with women as well as men—including the great songwriter Noel Coward. But things truly get complicated when one of his supposed mistresses is murdered.

The Queen wants the whole matter hushed. But as the case unfolds—and Georgie's beau Darcy, as always, turns up in the most unlikely of places—their investigation brings them precariously close to the prince himself.

(There is a bit of seriousness in the way it deals with the tensions of the time leading up to WWII.) It features Lady Victoria Georgiana Charlotte Eugenie, 34th (more or less) in line to the throne and perpetually flat-broke, who ends up doing various little "favors", that somehow always turn into crime investigations, for Queen Mary.

Blood has dropped to $1.99 at Kindle and Kobo US.
