Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 2 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Historical Publisher's Summary: Newly minted trial lawyer Abraham Lincoln is riding the circuit, traveling by carriage with other lawyers and a judge to bring justice to the remote parts of Illinois. Meanwhile, Lincoln's close friend, Joshua Speed, is steaming up the Mississippi River, aboard a steamboat owned by Speed's father, when suddenly his journey is interrupted when a rigged card game aboard the ship turns to violence - and then murder. When a young traveling artist is accused of the crime, Speed enlists Lincoln to defend him. Together, Lincoln and Speed work to find evidence of the artist's innocence. But soon they come to discover that more than just the card games are crooked aboard the Speed family's ship. As the day of judgment hurtles toward them, Lincoln and Speed must fight to save not only the life of Lincoln's client but also the merit of Speed's good name.

Putnam's second Lincoln and Speed mystery, Perish from the Earth, is the superlative follow-up to These Honored Dead, praised by Pulitzer Prize winner Doris Kearns Goodwin as "splendid...one of the most enjoyable works of fiction I have read in a long time".

Title: The Strange Fate of Kitty Easton Subtitle: A Laurence Bartram Mystery, Book 2 Author: Elizabeth Speller Narrator: Matthew Brenher Format: Unabridged Length: 13 hrs Language: English Release date: 06-26-12 Publisher: Dreamscape Media, LLC Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 30 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Historical Publisher's Summary: When Great War veteran Laurence Bartram arrives in Easton Deadall, he is struck by the beauty of the place: a crumbling manor, a venerable church, and a memorial to the village's soldiers, almost all of whom died in one bloody battle. Now peace prevails, but Easton Deadall remains haunted by tragedy - as does the Easton family. In 1911, five-year-old Kitty disappeared from her bed and has not been seen in thirteen years; only her fragile mother still believes she is alive. While Laurence is a guest of the manor, a maid vanishes in a sinister echo of Kitty's disappearance. And when a body is discovered in the manor's ancient church, Laurence is drawn into the grounds' forgotten places, where deadly secrets lie in wait. Critic Reviews: "Intriguing....The intelligent depiction of the many wounds of war, suffered not only in the trenches but also on the home front, resonates." (Publishers Weekly) "Speller's writing is gorgeous." (Kate Saunders, The Times, London) "Dispassionate yet gradually beguiling, with a sympathetic, vulnerable hero." (The Independent)

Berger Narrator: Chris Andrew Ciulla Format: Unabridged Length: 14 hrs Language: English Release date: 03-15-13 Publisher: Warren Berger Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 24 votes Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Historical Publisher's Summary: Shunned by his community...locked up for trying to help an innocent girl...ambushed by rivals and left for dead in the Detroit River, Joe Bernstein has a few scores to settle, and a bold plan to seize control of the Motor City in its booming 1920s heyday. With his faithful "agent", Abie; his brilliant but fragile brother, Max; and an out-of-control enforcer named Grabowski (not to mention a couple of carnivorous creatures known as "the babies"), Bernstein gives rise to the infamous Purple Gang - so named by local merchants because the gang's members were said to be "tainted, like spoiled meat". Bernstein's boys set their sights on taking over the Detroit River, the pipeline connecting dry America to wet Canada. But Joe also must contend with having "a sweetheart in the nut house" and rising tensions within his gang. Worst of all, the D.A.'s office has brought in an amputee war hero named Riley - who seems to be one step ahead of Joe's big plans.... A fast-paced thriller that builds to the climactic Collingwood Massacre (a seminal event that changed Detroit forever), The Purples blends richly detailed historical fiction with nonstop action, all narrated in the wry voice of the smart, self-deluding, and unforgettable Joe Bernstein.

Title: Resort to Murder Subtitle: A Miss Dimont Mystery, Book 2 Author: TP Fielden Narrator: Eve Karpf Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 52 mins Language: English Release date: 11-02-17 Publisher: HarperCollins Publishers Limited Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Historical Publisher's Summary: No 1 Ladies' Detective Agency meets The Durrells in 1950s Devon. 'There you have it -' Miss Dimont smiled and, lifting her dark glasses, turned to face the trainee reporter '- in a nutshell. A mystery death. Needs looking into, wouldn't you say?' Death stalks the beaches of Devon. With its pale, aquamarine waters and golden sands, the shoreline at Temple Regis was a sight to behold. But when an unidentifiable body is found there one morning, the most beautiful beach in Devon is turned into a crime scene. For Miss Dimont - ferocious defender of free speech, champion of the truth and ace newspaperwoman for The Riviera Express - this is a case of paramount interest, and the perfect introduction for her young new recruit Valentine Waterford. Even if their meddling is to the immense irritation of local copper Inspector Topham.... Soon Miss Dimont and Valentine are deep in investigation - why can nobody identify the body, and why does Topham suspect murder? And when a second death occurs, can the two possibly be connected? Critic Reviews: Praise for T P Fielden: "This is a fabulously satisfying addition to the canon of vintage crime. No wonder the author has already been signed up to produce more adventures starring the indefatigable Miss Dimont." (Daily Express) "Unashamedly cosy, with gentle humour and a pleasingly eccentric amateur sleuth, this solid old-fashioned whodunit is the first in what promises to be an entertaining series." (The Guardian) "Highly amusing." (Evening Standard)

Title: Irregular Lives Subtitle: The Untold Story of Sherlock Holmes and the Baker Street Irregulars Author: Kim Krisco Narrator: Dominic Lopez Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 1 min Language: English Release date: 08-28-17 Publisher: MX Publishing Genres: Mysteries & Thrillers, Historical Publisher's Summary: Sherlock Holmes' relationship with the band of street Arabs, known at the Baker Street Irregulars, has largely been untold - until now. Holmes sometimes relied upon a gang of adolescent boys and girls who he recruited from the slums of London. Indeed, some of Sherlock Holmes's most bizarre cases involved the irregulars: a hideous execution of a man who had been strapped to the barrel of a cannon, a fiend who hoped he could live forever on the blood of others, and the largest jewel robbery in Britain. Irregular Lives begins in post WWI London, when Holmes visits a mysterious photography exhibit that has him recall adventures with Wiggins, Ugly, Kate, and other members of his urban army. But his reminiscences are merely a prelude to a thrilling adventure that begins when a jolly reunion with the irregulars abruptly erupts in a terrible tragedy. If you were ever curious about how Holmes shaped and changed the lives of the irregulars, and how they transformed his life, then this is the audiobook for you.
