HUH….”Death by the Sea”…that might be good…
OH IT’S A SLIPPERY SLOPE!
Danna - cozy mystery list says
Bek, I certainly know what you mean!
Susy S says
Bek, Since I love her other series, I will have to give this one a try. I am just VERY disappointed that it is only available as an e-book. I’s hoping that maybe it will be printed in a few months.
Bek says
Me, too! I’m keeping an eye out in “Goodreads,” which is usually up-to-date on available editions.
George Dewar says
What happened to All Brandon and her Black Cat Bookshop mysteries? They were very good and getting better. Hopefully they will come back or Hamlet will get a new series ( a very strong character).
Danna - cozy mystery list says
George, unfortunately my understanding is that this series was dropped by the publisher. It isn’t impossible that it will resurface under a different publisher, but not likely either.
Bek says
That’s sad, sad news. I’m a huge Hamlet fan, as well. AND I enjoyed Ms. Brandon’s way with quirky characters.
Karen Scoppa says
I have just finished Krista Davis’ Color Me Murder and it was really great. Good characters and story.

Karen, thanks for the recommendation!
Susy S says
WOOOO! I am so jealous. I put it on my gift list for Christmas and my SIL is very slow about ordering. Maybe I will need to give her a subtle push today.

I need something to read! I have read every Agatha Christie book multiple times and I am hoping for something new. An easy to read cozy with servants in big house or suspicious villagers!

Vibewoogie, if you’re looking for more authors like Agatha Christie, I’ve got a post on that topic that includes a lot of suggestions by site readers, located here: Authors Similar to Agatha Christie

Bek – I was thinking the same thing! Although, since this series is being released only in eBook format (at least for now), it won’t take up any more shelf space. I prefer my books in print, but I don’t mind the occasional eBook if it’s something that interests me enough, and it’s the only option. Plus, I find it easier to take an e-reader on vacations.
There is a second book in this series, “A Killing by the Sea”, slated for release on September 25th. 🙂
Bek says
Would you believe that I have THREE ebook programs on my laptop and have yet to get even ONE ebook? I’m just so addicted to the weight and heft of a book in my hands. If it’s a really good book, sometimes I hug it and laugh. I’ve even occasionally ~blush~ kissed the cover when finished. Ebooks, while a wonderful thing, are just not the same.
HOWEVER, since more and more are in that format, I really should figure out how to use the systems and get at least a few!
Susy S says
Bek, A good way to get your feet wet and check out a few authors that you may not have read before (DANGER, DANGER, WILL ROBINSON), is BookBub. They have many cheap and FREE e-books.
I carry a tablet computer when I travel, so this is a good time for me to check out new authors. It was also a great tool last weekend when I was without power for 18 hours. My tablet doesn’t put a big drain on it’s battery and I keep a couple of back-up power packs charge up all the time.
Bek says
I’ll have to gather my courage and dip my toes in the ebook sea! I’m not quite a Luddite, but…let’s put it this way. It was a major triumph for me when I was able to open a new file, put stuff in it, and then FIND that file again! The sad thing is that my elder son is a cloud architect and designs software, and the younger son designs software (kinda like “The Sims”) that helps insurance actuaries assign risk. They shake their heads at me a LOT. Elder Son is linked to my computer via Team Viewer so that he can go in and fix anything I mess up.
Susy says
Bek, I don’t know which apps you have, but I find the kindle is the easiest. I have also found that my laptop and desk top (even my android phone) are easier to use than the iPad. Not sure if this is because I use windows and android based systems all the time for work, or if iPad is just less compatible with anything not Apple.
Sometimes I really wish I had someone like your sons who could look at my computer and tell me what the problem is, or if my provider is just slowing me down again.
Margaret StashEmpress says
Anything by Catriona McPherson should be AMAZING! Her Dandy Gilver series has the most unusual and unexpected plot twists EVER!!! If you only read one book in your life, make it Dandy Gilver and the Proper Treatment of Bloodstains.

Margaret, I’ll have to add her to the list of authors that I need to highlight for the most popular and recommended authors!
Bek says
OH! Dana, I found a new series coming out, I believe in April (at least in ebook form). Jane Willan is the author, and the first book is her debut. It is “The Shadow of Death,” the first of her new Sister Agatha and Father Selwyn series. It’s set in a convent in Wales. The synopsis I read was charming, and I’m looking forward to being able to order a copy shortly! You might want to take a look at it.

Bek, I’ll take a look! I don’t generally add an author to the site until they have at least two books out (this actually cuts down on a lot of “one and done” authors that would otherwise be more effort than they’re probably worth to keep track of). That said, I’ll try to keep her on my radar!
