Congratulations to the winners of the last giveaway. Anita A. from Bellevue, NE and Cindi S. from Greenfield, WI will receive the copies of The Race to Save the Romanovs. I'll put the books in the mail tomorrow.

This week, I'm giving away two mysteries with sleuths from history. A Tale of Two Murders by Heather Redmond introduces Charles Dickens as a sleuth. When two young women are murdered, a year apart, Dickens enlists the help of a fellow journalist and a young woman he's attracted to, his boss's daughter. There are traces of Dickens' future books in the first in a new series.







These Honored Dead is Jonathan F. Putnam's first Lincoln and Speed mystery. Joshua Speed, the enterprising son of a wealthy plantation owner, has struck off on his own, opening a general store in Springfield, Illinois. When an orphaned girl is found murdered, Speed's former girlfriend is the primary suspect. Speed enlists the help of a new friend, a newly minted lawyer named Abraham Lincoln.

Which book would you like to win? You can enter to win both books, but I need separate entries. Email me at Lesa.Holstine@gmail.com. Your subject heading should read either "Win A Tale of Two Murders" or "Win These Honored Dead." Please include your name and mailing address. The giveaway will end Thursday, Aug. 16 at 5 PM CT. Entries from the U.S. only, please.
