The Coroner’s Lunch
By Colin Cotterill $13
The first book in great new mystery series. Decidedly fresh and out of the normal genre boundaries – an unusual setting, quirky characters, great
dialogue and witty reparte. A very pleasant surprise!

and characters.

The Dead Of Winter
By Rennie Airth $25.95
This is the third novel by this author to feature Inspector John Madden, the first having
been “River of Darkness”. Another finely crafted mystery set in WWII England and very hard to put down.

page-turner by one of my favorite writers.

Holmes on the Range
By Steve Hockensmith $13.95
Two cowboy brothers in the 1890’s old west are devoted fans of the stories of
Sherlock Holmes. When a mystery comes their way, they set about “deducifyin” the clues to solve the case. Funny, well written and thoroughly enjoyable!

Firewall
by Henning Mankell $13.95
An interesting study of a middle-aged cop surrounding a deliciously intricate police procedural.
No wonder Mankell is one of Sweden’s popular writers. Better than Before the Frost which was exceptional.

Bookman’s Promise
by John Dunning $7.99
This is the third installment in a great mystery series. Not only do you get a first class mystery, but, you also
get an education in the rare book business. I do suggest that you begin with the first in the series, Booked To Die $7.99 and don’t miss Bookman’s Wake (#2) $7.99 .
