May's Crime Fiction Discounts and Freebies
May 08, 2025 3:14 pm
Hi, everyone and once again, welcome to new subscribers. I hope the month is going well for you. May is my favourite month of the year. Summer is on the way, but it’s not too hot yet, and our gardens are blooming.
This month’s crime fiction discount features the third book in my Casey Holland mystery series, Beneath the Bleak New Moon. The idea was inspired by a real-life event here in Vancouver several years ago. A pedestrian was struck and killed by a street-racing driver. Her death created an outcry in the city. The driver was eventually tried and convicted, although it took a long time to reach that point. I turned the street racing phenomenon into something even more frightening in this book. Here’s a brief blurb:
What happens when a street race on a busy Vancouver thoroughfare kills a pedestrian? And what happens when it occurs again, deliberately? Public outrage, a missing investigative reporter, and upheaval in Casey Holland’s personal life creates a wild ride to the heart-stopping end.
The $.99 discount is available on most platforms and through BookFunnel’s ‘Unmissable Book Deals’ promotion. This promotion not only offers deals in mysteries but in general fiction, fantasy, science fiction, and literary fiction. You can find the link HERE.
Also this month, I’m participating in BookFunnel’s ‘Thrills and Chills’ newsletter signup, featuring free mysteries, thrillers, horror, and psychological suspense. Note that some of these will be samples or excerpts. Over 40 authors are participating in this one, so here’s another opportunity to find great new books. The link is HERE.
