Hey, wonderful! First Phryne Fisher book currently free for Kindle!
If you've been wanting to try the Phryne Fisher mystery series, the first book, Cocaine Blues, is currently free for Kindle, and the next few are priced at $2.99. If you're using a Nook, Barnes & Noble has it at $0.99.
Summary of the first book behind the cut. Short version is, I liked Phryne and some of y'all might too.
The London season is in full fling at the end of the 1920s, but the Honorable Phryne Fisher-she of the gray-green eyes and diamant garters-is tiring of polite conversations with retired colonels and dances with weak-chinned men. When the opportunity presents itself, Phryne decides it might be amusing to try her hand at becoming a lady detective in Australia.
Immediately upon settling into Melbourne's Hotel Windsor, Phryne finds herself embroiled in mystery. From poisoned wives and cocaine smuggling, to police corruption and rampant communism ... , Cocaine Blues charts a crescendo of steamy intrigue....
... where I cut the Amazon blurb. It had some spoilers.
Okay. Back to pulling up word, now that the plumber is done. (I get to scrub hell out of a tub later, and will probably go get the shower too. Oh, well!)
