Roy Carpenter Mysteries for 99 cents, till Saturday
If you haven't tried out my blues mystery series, set in 1950s Nashville and starring harmonica-player-slash-crime-solver Roy Carpenter, now is a good time: the full-length novel Cross Road Blues in on sale for kindle till Saturday at the discounted price of 99 cents. While you're at it, spend another 99 cents to grab the Roy Carpenter short story "Stomp Boogie." This series has gotten a lot of good responses, including some high praise from several of my favorite crime novelists.

Excellent stories indeed, not just for blues lovers. Only question is, will there be any more and when? Thanks Troy.
