(And also while reading Barbara Nadel's contemporary Inspector Ikmen series...and Jason Goodwin's Investigator Yashim books...and...)
Now the first in the series, One for Sorrow, is on sale for only $2.99 in the US.
Kindle US: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07VMH4KG8
Kobo US (discountable): https://www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/one-for-sorrow-35
And the tenth, Ten for Dying, is even less at the moment - it's $1.99 at Kindle and Kobo US.

Another of many series that I wish had kept going... |
Not on sale in the UK, but Kobo UK are a bit cheaper than Amazon UK, standardising on £3.99/book and £9.99 for the 1st 4 as a box set. Amazon are a mix of £3.99 and £4.99 and a bit over £10 for the set - and I have a 20% off code.
I might take a punt on these; they sound interesting; I wonder how much they owe to Procopius' Secret Histories?
