Based on the table of contents in the sample, The Complete Jake Samson Mystery Series Vol 1-6 is pretty much what it says it is - the six titles in the 1980s - 1990s series by Shelley Singer. It is free right now at Kindle US. I remember reading and enjoying a couple of titles in this series way back when. I don't remember much about them, to be sure, but I must have enjoyed them since I still have the DTB . The blurb indicates that this omnibus also includes a dystopian thriller, Torch Song.

Something made me start clicking through the Kobo summer beach sale, and I spotted two or three mystery series that are new to me that look interesting, but are sadly at sale price points ($2.99 and up, a little less with VIP) that I need to think about a bit. But I thought I'd post anyway, since each of them looked kind of interesting.
The first (and only) three titles in Steph Cha's Jennifer Song series - of interest to me because they are set in LA (where I live) and the heroine sounds engaging - all on sale at $2.99 each at both Kindle and Kobo US Follow Her Home Kindle US: https://www.amazon.com/Follow-Home-J...dp/B009LRWU8S/ Kobo US: https://www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/follow-her-home Beware Beware Kindle US: https://www.amazon.com/Beware-Junipe...dp/B00ID8G5RS/ Kobo US: https://www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/beware-beware Dead Soon Enough Kindle US: https://www.amazon.com/Dead-Soon-Eno...dp/B00SET2W5A/ Kobo US: https://www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/dead-soon-enough For something completely different, the first title in Dianne Freeman's Frances Wynn, Countess of Harleigh series, which, per SYKM, won the 2018 Agatha Award for Best First Novel, the 2019 Lefty Award for Best Debut Mystery, and was a finalist for the 2019 Mary Higgins Clark Award; sadly the just-released second title is $12.99 at Kindle US, and even more at Kobo US, so hopefully I don't buy and read this one too soon and like it a lot... A Lady's Guide to Etiquette and Murder, $2.99, coupon/VIPable at Kobo Kindle US: https://www.amazon.com/Etiquette-Mur...dp/B07638LZZB/ Kobo US: https://www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/a-l...e-and-murder-3 more soon... |

The two titles in the Frank Yakabuski series by Ron Corbett are $3.99 each at Kobo (coupon/VIPable), but at Kindle US the first one is $1.99 and the second one is not on sale, or at least not much on sale, at $8.99. So I think I might try the first one from Kindle, and then if I like it, put a watch on the other one at eReaderIQ. Per SYKM, each of these was a finalist for one award.

Per SYKM, the first title won a 2018 Arthur Ellis Award for Best First Novel.

Murder on Amsterdam Avenue is the 17th in the Gaslight series by Victoria Thompson. It has dropped to £1.49 at Kindle UK. I read the first handful of titles in this series in DTB and enjoyed them, but the later titles don't go on sale much in ebook, so I don't have an opinion of the series in the last decade or so.

Death at Sea: Montalbano's Early Cases by Andrea Camilleri is apparently pretty much what it says it is - a recent (2018) compilation of short stories from early in Inspector Montalbano's career. It has dropped to $1.99 at Kindle and Kobo US. I'm quite fond of this series, although titles are usually pricey and don't go on sale very often in the US (but do go on sale a bit more often in the UK).
