* Title: The Virtu
* Author: Sarah Monette
* Sony Connect price: $19.96
* Amazon, Borders Bookstores, Barnes & Noble: $7.99
* Available in mass market paperback

I've already emailed them and was told they would contact the publisher and email me with an update. Then then emailed me again a couple of days later to tell me that since I didn't contact them again, they considered the problem solved. I emailed them back to correct that notion.

Still no change in the price. :-(

ETA: I just took a look at the publisher's website and lo and behold, the problem: they have the paperback at 7.99 and the hardcover and ebook at 24.95. I guess I'll be reading the public library copy and waiting until I can pick up a used p-back copy.
