RECOMMENDED: The Arctic Fury by Greer Macallister is $1.99! Carrie gave this historical mystery a B+:

Black Water Sister by Zen Cho is $1.99! This was mention on a previous Hide You Wallet. I’ve enjoyed Cho’s historical fantasy novels and was curious about this one. However, definitely research trigger warnings, as I know there are some darker elements and scenes.
