An omnibus of all five Good Thief's Guide series titles (Amsterdam, Paris, Berlin, Vegas, Venice) by Chris Ewan has dropped to £5.99 in the UK right now - a pretty nice price if you need them all, or even most of them. The individual titles are also priced between £0.99 and £2.99, so if you don't like omnibuses, or just need a couple you might check them out.

Amazingly enough, the UK link in this really old post from the "Omnibuses" thread (remember that?) is still good: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh....php?p=3597667

I've read and liked several books in Vaseem Khan's Baby Ganesh Agency Investigations series, but haven't yet read the first book in his Persis Wadia series, Midnight at Malabar House - even though it won the 2021 Historical Dagger. And now here is the second in the series, The Dying Day, already on sale for $1.99 in the US. Sigh! More for the TBR list...

Quote:
A priceless manuscript. A missing scholar. A trail of riddles.

For over a century, one of the world's great treasures, a six-hundred-year-old copy of Dante's The Divine Comedy, has been safely housed at Bombay's Asiatic Society. But when it vanishes, together with the man charged with its care, British scholar and war hero, John Healy, the case lands on Inspector Persis Wadia's desk.

Uncovering a series of complex riddles written in verse, Persis - together with English forensic scientist Archie Blackfinch - is soon on the trail. But then they discover the first body.

As the death toll mounts it becomes evident that someone else is also pursuing this priceless artefact and will stop at nothing to possess it . . .

Harking back to an era of darkness, this second thriller in the Malabar House series pits Persis, once again, against her peers, a changing India, and an evil of limitless intent.

Gripping, immersive, and full of Vaseem Khan's trademark wit, this is historical fiction at its finest.

Murder, stolen plans, a mysterious death and a menage a trois – four intriguing novellas featuring Hercule Poirot…

How did a woman holding a pistol in her right hand manage to shoot herself in the left temple? What was the link between a ghost sighting and the disappearance of top secert military plans? How did the bullet that killed Sir Gervase shatter a mirror in another part of the room? And who destroyed the ‘eternal triangle’ of love involving renowned beauty, Valentine Chantry?

Hercule Poirot is faced with four mystifying cases – Murder in the Mews, The Incredible Theft, Dead Man’s Mirror and Triangle at Rhodes – each a miniature classic of characterisation, incident and suspense.

In addition to writing the Sister Fidelma series, Peter Tremayne took a stab a few years ago at writing a continuation of EW Hornung's Raffles series. Although the webpage for The Return of Raffles says it's the "first of a new series of Raffles adventures from the bestselling pen of Peter Tremayne", I'm unaware of any more. (This one got sort of middling reviews, so perhaps Tremayne and/or his publishers didn't see it as worth continuing the effort...)

In any case, The Return of Raffles is free right now at Kindle US and UK, so you can read it yourself, and see what you think. (Although I love the Sister Fidelma series, I myself haven't read this one...)

The continuing exploits of that charming gentleman and thief — A. J. Raffles.

“Standing gazing down at me, an amused expression on his saturnine face, was A. J. Raffles, England’s finest cricketer and if the truth were known, her greatest amateur cracksman. But Raffles had been killed in the Boer War four years ago!” Or had he …?

Alive and well and totally unreformed, Raffles together with his trusted ally and partner in crime, Bunny Manders, takes up his favourite sport: safe-cracking! But events bode ill for Raffles when he is caught by his long-time antagonist, Chief Inspector Mackenzie …

Raffles is blackmailed into using his ‘unusual’ talents for the government. His mission: to procure certain incriminating letters written by an indiscreet monarch — to avert an international crisis.

Could this be the beginning of a new career for Raffles — this time working with the law?

The first of a new series of Raffles adventures from the bestselling pen of Peter Tremayne - author of Ravenmoon, and Angelus.

Next to Last Stand is the next-to-most-recent (2020) in the Walt Longmire series by Craig Johnson. It has dropped to $1.99 at Kindle and Kobo US.

The new novel in the beloved New York Times bestselling Longmire series.

One of the most viewed paintings in American history, Custer's Last Fight, copied and distributed by Anheuser-Busch at a rate of over two million copies a year, was destroyed in a fire at the 7th Cavalry Headquarters in Fort Bliss, Texas, in 1946. Or was it? When Charley Lee Stillwater dies of an apparent heart attack at the Wyoming Home for Soldiers & Sailors, Walt Longmire is called in to try and make sense of a piece of a painting and a Florsheim shoebox containing a million dollars, sending the good sheriff on the trail of a dangerous art heist.

Now also on sale at Kobo US, where it's discountable. Per the Kobo thread, there's a 40% off reusable coupon ("partners") floating around right now that should work on this.

The Kindle US link below is good again, and here's the Kobo US link: https://www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/acid-bath-4

A couple of years later, again £0.99 as part of the UK Daily Deal. @maddz's link below is still good.

I get quite the amusement out of Kindle's category choices sometime. I'm pretty sure that this probably shouldn't be #1 in "Children's ebooks", unless the children involved are quite precocious ...
