A few random price drops as part of the Kindle US Daily Deal, all matched at Kobo.
Murphy's Law, first in the Molly Murphy series by Rhys Bowen, $2.99. I've quite liked the titles that I've read in this series, although not quite as much as Bowen's Lady Georgie series. They are a little less cute, though, if you find Lady Georgie to be over-the-top cute.

The Brass Verdict is the second title in Michael Connelly's shorter, but probably as well known and awarded, Mickey Haller series. It is £0.99 today as part of the Kindle UK Daily Deal. Per SYKM, the first title in the series, The Lincoln Lawyer, won or was nominated for six awards (!) and this title itself won the 2009 Anthony Award for Best Mystery. And Harry Bosch is in this book too...enough that SYKM calls it the 14th in the Harry Bosch series as well.

^ These are fantastic reads. Remember, however, that they were written during a time when pc was just a pimple on someone's a**.
![]() ![]() I love these books and read many of them when I was just a kid. (Kobo.uk also has them.) Last edited by Dr. Drib; 08-28-2020 at 07:45 AM. |

Some titles from the Kindle UK monthly sale for August, ending in a few days. Mostly titles to my taste, and a few other authors I recognize. All at £0.99 each unless otherwise indicated. Lots of repeats. I’m not going to give the Smile links – if you want to make a Smile link, replace the “www” in the URL with “smile”.
The Son, by Jo Nesbo, non-series: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Son-Jo-Nesb...dp/B00GO9BMZS/ Headhunters, another non-series title by Jo Nesbo: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Headhunters...dp/B005EWDA2E/ The Daughter Of Time, by Josephine Tey, fourth in her Alan Grant series, my favorite of her books, since I’m a Ricardian too, but a good read even if you’re not: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Daughter-Ti...dp/B0050OM3OC/ The Lincoln Lawyer, by Michael Connelly, Mickey Haller #1, per SYKM this won/was nominated for an insane number of awards: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Lincoln-Law...dp/B00374720W/ The Colours of all the Cattle, fairly recent (2018) in the No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency series by Alexander McCall Smith, not really to my taste, but definitely to the taste of lots of people: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Colours-Cat...dp/B07BFCNLWF/ The Penguin Complete Sherlock Holmes, by Arthur Conan Doyle, public domain probably everywhere, but if you want a nice version this would probably do it inexpensively, but so would the MR versions (free): https://www.amazon.co.uk/Penguin-Com...dp/B003FXCS8G/ The Maltese Falcon, by Dashiell Hammett, a classic, public domain in Canada/similar and available from Faded Page if you are lucky enough to live/visit, otherwise this is a great deal: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Maltese-Fal...dp/B00N20V112/ The Lighthouse, Inspector Dalgliesh #13, by P. D. James: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Lighthouse-...dp/B002RI90G8/ Red Mist, Kay Scarpetta #19, by Patricia Cornwell: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Red-Mist-Sc...dp/B005LN0DBW/ The Bone Bed, Kay Scarpetta #20, by Patricia Cornwell: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Bone-Bed-Sc...dp/B008S4FZHI/ Rupture, fourth in the Dark Iceland series by Ragnar Jónasson: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Rupture-Dar...dp/B01NCZRGFA/ continued…. Last edited by sufue; 08-28-2020 at 01:06 PM. Reason: added second Cornwell/Scarpetta title |
