The Varg Veum Collection contains the four most recent titles in the Varg Veum series by Gunnar Staalesen. (There's a new one coming early next year...) All of these titles have been on sale before, so check carefully before you buy - but at $0.99, you could actually have one or two and still have this be a good deal.

Maigret and the Ghost, apa Maigret and the Apparition, is, per the blurb, the 62nd in the Inspector Maigret series by Georges Simenon. It has dropped to £0.99 at Kindle UK as part of today's Daily Deal.

Still $0.99 at Kindle US, and now also $0.99 at Nook, as part of the Nook Daily Find: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/var...=9781912374908
Still $24.69 (!!!) at Kobo US - that would be an interesting price match ![]() Quote:

An omnibus of two stories by Ruth Rendell for $2.99. The Veiled One and the Unkindness of Ravens - both books are near the end of the Inspector Wexford series. Excellent british mystery writer who died a few years ago.
US Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Two-Inspector...kbubemail11-20 Kobo: https://www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/two...LQwzEwtvrkeGQA B&N: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/two...dpid=tekz25v83 Terminal Freeze by Lincoln Child for $1.99. I read this 5 years ago and gave it high marks.

A few items of interest (to me, at least) in today's Kindle US Daily Deal, some matched at Kobo US, all at $1.99 unless otherwise mentioned.
Sidney Chambers and The Problem of Evil is the third in the Grantchester series by James Runcie - these, with the exception of the first, don't go on sale very often, and are pretty expensive in the US when not on sale Kindle US: https://www.amazon.com/Sidney-Chambe...dp/B00J5ED8JW/ Kobo US (coupon/VIPable): https://www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/sid...roblem-of-evil Sidney Chambers and The Shadow of Death is the first in the series, which does go on sale pretty often, but since Problem is on sale, I thought I'd post this too, in case someone wants to try the first one first. Only on sale at Kindle US, at least right now. Kindle US: https://www.amazon.com/Sidney-Chambe...dp/B007DD9R92/ One Step Behind is the seventh in the Kurt Wallander series by Henning Mankell. Not (yet?) matched at Kobo US. Kindle US: https://www.amazon.com/Step-Behind-K...dp/B005GX1OZ6/ Who's Sorry Now? is the second in the Lady Adelaide series by Maggie Robinson. Although set in totally different settings, the blurb reminds me a little bit of Helen Chappell's Hollis Ball/Sam Wescott series, where a deceased husband comes back to haunt his former wife - and, of course, help solve mysteries. On another note, I'm not used to seeing Poisoned Pen Press books as part of the Daily Deal, nor even really on sale that much. I may have to add a few PPP authors to my eReaderIQ list... Kindle US: https://www.amazon.com/Whos-Sorry-La...dp/B07S1Y8C2Z/ Kobo US(coupon/VIPable): https://www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/who-s-sorry-now-9 Warriors is a compilation of stories about, well, warriors. It's edited by George R.R. Martin of Game of Thrones fame, but I'm including it here because it purports to include a new Lord John Grey story by Diana Gabaldon (of Outlander fame, Lord John is a minor character in the Outlander series, but stars in his own much shorter mystery series). Also says it has original stories by a bunch of other authors including Steven Saylor - although I don't think anyone would call Gordianus the Finder a warrior, so this story may not be in that series. I haven't read this collection of stories, so all this info is from the blurb, so take with a grain of salt... Kindle US, $2.99: https://www.amazon.com/Warriors-Lord...dp/B00AEBUPSM/ Kobo US, also $2.99, not coupon/VIPable: https://www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/warriors-1 |

Another holiday-themed sale...
The Alpine Christmas is, somewhat predictably, the third in Mary Daheim's Alpine Advocate series. It has dropped to $1.99 as part of the US Kindle Daily Deal, matched at Kobo US.

In the Last Analysis is the first in the Kate Fansler series by Amanda Cross (pen name for Carolyn Gold Heilbrun). This is one of the earlier mystery series I read after I pretty much finished Agatha Christie's books.
My ex-mother-in-law, who was a female academic in the northeast in the same time period as Heilbrun told me that many of the people in some of the books are pretty thinly disguised academics of the time. I enjoyed them a lot even without recognizing anyone; my ex-mother-in-law enjoyed them even more ![]() Anyway, Last Analysis is $1.99 today as part of the US Kindle Daily Deal, matched at Kobo US.

I'm actually looking at the Kindle UK monthly sale a few days, rather than a few hours, before it ends. Woo-hoo! Some random titles, mostly to my taste, but also a few other authors I just recognize. All £0.99 unless otherwise indicated. Most/all have been on sale before, so check carefully before you buy. Also, if you travel, some are also $0.99 at Kindle US, which is a bit less expensive, provided you don't have any credit card fees.
