Thin Blood by Vicki Tyley – Australian Mystery

Hi all,

I’ve been lurking as a guest for quite some time, but have decided to “out” myself to offer one of my novels, Thin Blood, free to MobileRead members.

Blurb: A stockbroker’s wife disappears. Blood on his hands and an adulterous affair with the missing woman’s younger sister sees him charged with murder. With no body and only circumstantial evidence he walks free. Ten years later, journalist Jacinta Deller decides to investigate, only to become embroiled in a warped game of delusion and murder.

Available in all major formats at https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/4439 -- for free download use coupon code MU76B (expires 28 February 2010).

Happy reading!

Vicki

Thanks for the welcome everyone. I actually stumbled across this forum when I was searching for info on geographical restrictions (grrrr… ) on ebooks. Thank goodness for Smashwords.

Any recommendations for PDB ebooks in the mystery/detective or thriller/suspense genres available to Australian readers would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers
Vicki

Hello and welcome! I actually snagged your book when you offered the deal on Karen's Books on the Knob blog. I haven't gotten a chance to read it yet but I am looking forward to it.

I did find on Smashwords a mystery series, by Connie Shelton that looks good. The first one is Deadly Gamble and it's 99 cents. I haven't read it yet so I can't tell you how it is, but it might fit what you're looking for.

Unfortunately, Connie doesn't offer a sample. Even at $0.99 I'm not going to buy a book based on the blurb alone. Does anyone? Just curious.

I never read samples, so I guess I'm one of those. I didn't even notice. It sounded interesting enough for me to buy it. She should offer a sample though.
