Per @Mort1997 above, the first title in Carrie Doyle's Hamptons Murder series, Death on Windmill Way, is free also at Kindle and Kobo US, and the next two titles are discounted, with a fourth non-discounted title coming soon. And they are also VIP/couponable at Kobo US. I'm slammed for time, so if you're in the UK, you'll need to take a look for yourself (sorry), but since @Mort1997's posts were for the UK, they are probably on sale there too. Use caution -these may be different "editions" - some of my prior purchases aren't showing up as purchased...

And same for Blackman's Coffin, the first in the Blackman Agency series by Mark de Castrique, per @Mort1997's post up above - also free in the US. And the next three titles are on sale (probably because there are more in the series). Same caveats about checking carefully - I already have the first one at both Kobo and Kindle (must have been free before), but it doesn't show up as purchased on the book's individual page - just in my library for each site.

Note: the fourth title, Murder in Passing, although on sale at Kindle US, doesn't seem to be available at Kobo US. Probably a glitch since the rest of the series is there. At least, I can't find it...

A couple of other PPP freebies that aren't first in series, and ARE edition dependent to be free - make sure you use the right link. There are duplicate editions available right now, both from PPP, but only one is free:

Most of the titles in the Dorothy Martin series by Jeanne M Dams are $0.99/£0.99 at Kindle US and UK right now. I remember reading and liking the first few titles in this series in DTB, and then sort of lost track of it. It appears that Joffe Books, which appears to do a fair amount of e-republishing, and also some publishing of its own, has the rights now, and they do a fair amount of discounting from time to time. By the way, according to SYKM, the first title in the series, The Body in the Transept, won the 1995 Agatha Award for Best First Novel.

Rather than providing individual links to a lot of titles, I'm posting series links, and you can take a look for the titles you need/want.

A relatively new (January, 2021) compilation of the first five titles in the Constable Nick series by Nicholas Rhea (pen name for Peter Walker) is $0.99/£0.99 at Kindle US/UK right now. If you don't have any/many of these, this might be a great deal. This is a very slow paced and cozy series, so be forewarned.

The titles are:

Constable on the Hill
Constable on the Prowl
Constable Around the Village
Constable Across the Moors
Constable in the Dale

Elaine Viets has put most, if not all, of the books in her Dead End Job series on sale and/or free on-and-off for a while. Not so much the titles in her Josie Marcus, Mystery Shopper series. Now here's the fourth book in the series, Murder with All the Trimmings, free right now at Kindle US and UK. Freebies tend not to stay free very long, so grab it now if you want it!

This hasn't been posted for a couple of years, so posting it again...

Skip Langdon Vol. 1-9 is pretty much what it inelegantly sounds like - an omnibus of the first nine of Julies Smith's Skip Langdon titles, the ones that were published in the 1990s and early 2000s, before she took about a 15 year hiatus with this series. It goes free at Kindle US and UK every few months, but for a VERY short time each time, so grab it now if you want it and haven't already. Titles are in the blurb.

Kindle US: https://www.amazon.com/Skip-Langdon-...dp/B00NT2RXZ6/
Kindle UK: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Skip-Langdo...dp/B00NT2RXZ6/

Oh yeah, and per SYKM, the first title in the series won the 1991 Edgar Award for Best Mystery and was a finalist for the 1991 Anthony Award for Best Mystery.

Quote:

The EDGAR AWARD-WINNING murder mystery series is now available for a KILLER price!

Grab 9 thrilling page-turners for less than an Alexander Hamilton!
Follow the remarkably bold, smart, and refreshingly human New Orleans detective Skip Langdon through the twists and turns of New Orleans--from raucous Mardi Gras to the swampy summertime--at she navigates deadly family secrets, tracks down a serial killer, and delves deep into the mastermind of a psychopath unlike any you've ever encountered...

“Gritty, witty, & mesmerizing! Langdon is a splendid female heroine.” –People Magazine

"Like a good Grisham: taut, fast, and thrilling. But with a lot more heart and soul.” -The Clarion-Ledger

NEW ORLEANS MOURNING

It's Mardi Gras in New Orleans, and civic leader and socialite Chauncy St. Amant has been crowned Rex, King of Carnival. But his day of glory comes to an abrupt and bloody end when a parade-goer dressed as Dolly Parton guns him down.

AXEMAN'S JAZZ

What's the perfect killing field for a murderer? A place where he (or maybe she) can learn your secrets from your own mouth and then make friends over coffee. A supposedly "safe" place where anonymity is the norm. The horror who calls himself The Axeman has figured it out and claimed his territory—he's cherry-picking his victims in the 12-Step programs of New Orleans.

JAZZ FUNERAL

Skip Langdon just happens to be on hand when Ham Brocato, director if New Orleans Jazzfest, is discovered dead on the kitchen floor in the middle of his own party the evening before the Fest. To complicate the already murky case, the victim's sixteen-year-old blues musician sister has disappeared, and Skip suspects that if the young woman isn't the murderer, she's in mortal danger from the person who is.

DEATH BEFORE FACEBOOK

It’s a chilly November in 1994, and thirty-one-year-old Geoff Kavanagh surreptitiously splits his time between science fiction novels and cyberspace in his parents’ dilapidated, overgrown, uptown New Orleans mansion. Until his mother finds him dead from a suspicious fall off a ladder. Maybe he should never have posted about seeing his father murdered …

HOUSE OF BLUES

Sugar Hebert arrives home from a ten-minute errand to find her husband shot to death and the rest of her family missing—including her daughter Reed, heir apparent to the Hebert restaurant dynasty, and Reed's eleven-month-old daughter.

THE KINDNESS OF STRANGERS

Politics makes the strangest bedfellows of all and in New Orleans, a psychopath’s running for mayor. Not just the usual harmless megalomaniac—a murderer and a monster.

CRESCENT CITY CONNECTION

Sure, New Orleans is known for corruption, but suddenly the good guys get a break—an honest police chief. And then someone guns him down. When a terrifying organization called The Jury takes out the cop-killer, Detective Skip Langdon’s on the case. And she suspects The Jury’s the brainchild of her old nemesis, self-described preacher Errol Jacomine

82 DESIRE

It seems Councilwoman Bebe Fortier has misplaced her equally prominent husband, United Oil VP Russell Fortier. Across town, part-time detective/poet Talba Wallis has a simple wish--to find out what Russell Fortier's disappearance has to do with her. NOPD Detective Skip Langdon soon senses something big starting to unfold, something a lot bigger than a missing husband. Something rooted in corruption, resulting in violence—and motivated by that old demon . . . desire.

MEAN WOMAN BLUES

The Rev. Errol Jacomine is crazy as a fox that just ate a loon and more dangerous than a cell full of serial killers. He's trying to off Detective Skip Langdon, the New Orleans cop who’s twice smashed his criminal endeavors, yet each time he’s managed to slip away. Now he’s mad. In both senses of the word. And he has the connections to have her killed—or worse, those she loves.

Most of the titles in the Simon Puttock/Sir Baldwin Furnshill (Knights Templar) series by Michael Jecks have dropped to between £0.99 and £2.99 each at Kindle UK. They are mostly £1.99, with several at £0.99 and a couple at £2.99. The last time a big bunch of this series was on sale like this was, I think, about two years ago, so I'm posting again. The link below picks them up, with a few strays, except for (???) the 23rd one, which seems to need its own link.
