MystereBooks: This Week's Update of Kindle Crime Fiction Priced $2.99 or Less (121201)

MystereBooks: Mystery, Suspense, and Thriller eBooks

Every month Amazon publishes a list of 100 Kindle books priced $3.99 or less. We thought we'd take that idea and improve on it, publishing a list of 100 Kindle mystery books priced $2.99 or less and updating it every week!

Here is our general criteria for selecting titles to include: books from major or specialty publishers of crime fiction and those written by authors familiar to us. There are far more than 100 to choose from, so we use our best judgment to narrow it down.

And just a reminder … as we add new titles, older ones are removed from the list. These books aren't likely to be repeated, so we encourage you to check in frequently!

A few notes before we get to today's lengthy list …

• Today is the first of the month, which means Amazon has updated its list of 100 books. We've looked through the mystery titles and will report on them later today, but we haven't duplicated any of them on today's update.

• We try to keep close tabs on Poisoned Pen Press but apparently not close enough! Sometime this past week the specialty mystery publisher lowered the price on a number of its titles. We caught a few, reporting on them mid-week, but missed some others. We've added those we made note of today to our update, but in case we missed one or two, here is a link to all of the publisher's titles, sorted by price.

Signet has lowered the price on a number of its Mickey Spillane titles to $2.99 or less, including the first "Mike Hammer" mystery, I, the Jury. We haven't included any here, but encourage you to use this link to see a list.

Below are listed the new $2.99 or less titles we added either today or earlier this week; click on the cover or title for more information or to purchase the Kindle edition.

Important Note: Prices can and do change without prior notice! We strongly urge you to confirm the price of the book before completing your purchase. The price displayed on the vendor website at the time of purchase is the price of the book.
