SIGNED BOOKS NOW AVAILABLE

We managed to acquire a few signed first editions of Shadow Tag, the latest from Louise Erdrich. The stories of this National Book Award winner are not necessarily mysteries in the strictest sense of that word, but they always explore the complex nature of human relationships and there’s very little more mysterious than that! $25.99

The Many Deaths of the Firefly Brothers by Thomas Mullen is getting all sorts of great reviews. This Depression-era adventure features Jason and Whit Fireson, bank robbers known as the Firefly Brothers. When they meet their end in a hail of bullets, their family grieves while the brothers, who have survived, remain as charismatic and unflappable as ever adding to their myth as they cut a swath through the American heartland. $26.00

We have some signed copies of Iron River by T. Jefferson Parker. This will definitely be a first come first served title since we don’t have nearly the number we would like. $26.95



FOR COLLECTORS

Something a little different from us. Some of you are new to collecting signed books or have holes in your collections. Below are some signed first editions, many of which are very reasonably priced, by authors we think are key to mystery collectors (no we haven’t included them all - not by a long way). We hope they will find homes in the blank spaces on your shelves:
