Milverton on sale this week

I’ve discounted the Murder on Milverton Square Kindle ebook this week to a criminally low 99c in the US and 99p in the UK.

I’d warmed Amazon up to the idea I might be expecting more eyes on Milverton this week by notifying all the wonderful readers on my own mailing list (psst you can join here too, it’s free!), posting on my website and across my socials, and sharing with The Fussy Librarian subscribers too.

And then it was time for Murder on Milverton Square‘s BookBub Featured Deal! At only 99c/99p, plenty of new readers were keen to give the series starter a shot.

Milverton is a best seller

In the first 12 hours, Murder on Milverton Square sold a whole bunch of copies and shot up the best seller charts in the Amazon US and UK stores!

A couple of highlights were getting in the top 1,000 in the entire US Kindle store (something Milverton has never achieved before!), and hitting the very top spot on the Best Sellers in LGBTQ+ Mysteries chart:

I’ve been keeping an eye on things throughout the promotional period and (as far as I’ve noticed) these are the peak store rankings (so far):

Amazon US Kindle store overall: #902

Amazon UK Kindle store overall: #1,065

What’s the book about?

Murder on Milverton Square by G. B. Ralph. Book blurb.

Addison Harper is abruptly summoned to Milverton at the behest of an abrasive lawyer.

He plans to be in and out, back to the city lickety-split. Instead, he finds himself charmed by the small town with its delightful and eccentric residents, not to mention the rather easy-on-the-eye Sergeant Jake Murphy.

Despite the rocky start, Addison admits he’s had a pleasant day out. That is, until returning to find the prickly old lawyer on the floor, and very much dead. Worse, it looks like murder, and Addison’s fingerprints are all over the crime scene.

Are you outside the US or UK…
