Die for Me by Diane Hester

[Carolyn]

Wolfe Island by Lucy Treloar

I don't think this is a sequel to Salt Creek.

[Phrynne, Mystery lover!]

It is a stand alone Carolyn and it is a beautiful book!

[Brenda, Suspense lover!]

Yes it is girls, but it's not one of the group's genres I'm afraid :( It's contemporary :)

[Phrynne, Mystery lover!]

Lol! Forgot which group I was in.

[Brenda, Suspense lover!]

Haha! Thought it was only me that did that!

The Silent Kookaburra by Liza Perrat

[Icewineanne]

A Few Right Thinking Men by Sulari Gentill

This might have been discussed but hopefully not recently 😉

OOps! I thought it was a mystery. Okay - off to look for something else!

[Carolyn]

The shelves say "cultural/Africa" but I've read it and know it has mystery and suspense in it. Her debut and I loved it! So yes, I'll pass this one Carolyn :)

The Escape Room by Megan Goldin

Andy Muir - Something For Nothing

[Natalee]

James Keegan The Cumal Files


This is a relatively new release by Australian author James Keegan that I enjoyed very much. It's the first book in a series. It's a crime mystery/thriller set in Sydney and the outback.

[Brenda, Suspense lover!]

Thanks Natalee, sounds interesting. I haven't heard of this author before and with him being Australian I'm keen to read him.

I shouldn't even be thinking about starting a new series when I have so many to finish, but I just cant help myself :)

[Brenda, Suspense lover!]

I know the feeling Kerri! I started a new one today and really enjoyed it!!!

[Craig]

Some really great nominations already, including a few books I've read and rate really highly.

I nominate The Broken Shore by Peter Temple, the first Australian novel ever to win the CWA Gold Dagger from the British Crime Writers' Association.

Would love to start this series Kerri. Sadly we can’t get an ebook in North America. The only copy available is a paperback copy for $50 from amazon 🙀

[Brenda, Suspense lover!]

You're kidding Anne!!!!! That's disgraceful! Have you tried Book Depository? It's very strange you can't get an ebook from Amazon? That's where I got mine from...

[Icewineanne]

Unfortunately no ebooks are available here. Perhaps it’s not licensed in N.A.? I also did check book depository, but this title is “currently unavailable”.
All i could do was to add my name to the notification list when they hopefully, get copies back in stock 😢

[Brenda, Suspense lover!]

Oh wow that's no good. Does your library have ebook availability? And if they didn't have that one, could they get it in for you?

[Brenda, Suspense lover!]

Nominations are now closed :)
