(On edit: I don't know why but Amazon changed my Friday and Saturday promotion to Saturday and Sunday.)
Not sure if this is kosher, but I'll delete it if it is.

Free promotion for my Kindle mystery THE MEDICINAL MARTINI on Saturday 2/18/12 & Sunday 2/19/12, if you're interested.

After cracking up in Europe, gumshoe Dusty Darling is sailing home to Manhattan. His R&R soon gets shelved when he accepts an urgent assignment from another passenger, a Park Avenue dame with a badly banged-up kisser. Next thing, he's drawn into a curious shipboard death, a shady disappearance, and a rash of jewel thefts. All the while, he battles mal de mer, and the doctor's Rx is pretty much, "Take two martinis and call me in the morning."

A shameless womanizer, Dusty's got the hots for the ship's pretty social director. He's also flipped for a beautiful twin with a poignant past, love of string art, and nitwit fiancé. A screwball colonel, a stagestruck teen, a crafty gigolo, and two shipwrecked sailors add to the high seas hijinks.

THE MEDICINAL MARTINI, a cozy mystery set in 1961 and mixed with equal shots of murder, romance, and humor, lands the pickled Dusty in a pickle. Just how far overboard will he go for love?

Thanks!

at Amazon. They demand exclusivity. The program allows us 5 free days and they add the book to their Amazon Prime lending library.

Sorry!

But, as you say, you can download the software or read it right in your browser from the web.
