Good for you Cheryl. I read The Summer Queen and I have this one on Audible - sad to say I haven't read it yet!

I've read The Summer Queen too and I saw that Ms. Chadwick's third in the series came out not too long agao. I'm always looking for good, cheap e-books to read during chemo/doctor appointments

I understand the need for something good to read at times like that, Cheryl. I don't usually have any extensive doctor visits but I do pick a book which I read whenever I'm "waiting" for anything or anyone. It really helps! I actually read this one that way:Moriarty: Anna Kronberg Bundle Kindle Edition and it wasn't a short read either! LOL!

Hi Y'all!  There is hasn't been much that I've seen in HF digital-land lately.  

But one did pop up this morning.  It's a favorite of mine.  Think I've mentioned before how much the story of the Grey sisters interest me.  

From Ella March Chase-"Three Maids for a Crown".  $1.99 at Amazon

Jan

I've been reading Denise for years but I haven't read any of her historical mysteries.  This 3 book set is FREE on Amazon so I'm going to give it a go.

"Servant of the Crown Mysteries"-3 book series-on Amazon.  Medieval setting.

Donna, you're right-if you purchase each book in the series separately.  But, there's a bundle that is all three books in the series that is free-for both Kindle Unlimited and as a purchase for Kindle.  I searched(again today, just to check) and it's there.  

If I could post links, I would, but I've haven't been able to successfully.
