Voted! Will read this one whether it wins or not! May read one of the others as well. One of them I will not read, even if it wins.

I went with The Necropolis Railway. I'd also be happy with Crocodile on the Sandbank, but I hope the Lehane doesn't win because we just had a book by him win a few months ago.

Aside from being the most interesting, Necropolis Railway is by far the cheapest option, at $2.90 at both Amazon and Kobo; Kobo coupons will also take a bite out of that.

Crocodile on the Sandbank is part of the Amelia Peabody Omnibus I picked up back in April for a whopping $1.31 (for 4 books). It got my vote.

Yes, but what does Crocodile cost now? Railway was free at Kobo a couple of weeks ago, but even those who missed it won't be much out of pocket!

Lehane and Crocodile are available through Overdrive libraries. Necropolis isn't.
