Isannah Here is free for Kindle today through Wednesday. This is the last of the Kindle freebie offers for this series.

It will be available for Kindle Unlimited subscribers to read for free for a few days after that, but then it will go out of the program so that Notes From Hiding - the complete novel - can be made available in more markets. (To be in Kindle Unlimited, at least for small publishers, Amazon requires exclusive ebook rights.)

By the way, in the trivia department, since I published this series, I've found out that Paul Revere had a child named Isannah, and also that there's a character named Isannah in the award-winning book Johnny Tremain, set in the American revolution. Who knew? Do you know of other people, real or fictional, named Isannah?

I got the name from some Mennonite friends of mine, who have a toddler granddaughter named that. I got to meet Isannah when she came out to live briefly on their dairy farm while her mother dealt with taking care of a newborn. My very young acquaintance has two cousins roughly the same age who live near her grandparents, and it was great fun watching the three little girls playing together. I haven't met Isannah's parents, and I don't know where they got the name. When I told some of the local relatives about Paul Revere having a child named that, they were quite surprised, though, so I'm pretty sure it wasn't from the Revere family.

All three books in The Smolder series are now available at Smashwords, and should soon be available at ebook outlets served by Smashwords distribution.

The Smolder is free for a limited time, and the other two (The Birdwatcher, The Unexpecteds) have been dropped to $1.99 during the introductory period. (The $1.99 prices are matched at Amazon and Barnes and Noble, in the regular Kindle and Nook editions.)

Click on the book cover to go to The Smolder's Smashwords page, where you can download it for free, in a variety of formats.

The Smashwords edition of Joanne and I Burn Up is presently free for Nook and other ereaders. (It's usually only 99 cents, but free is still nice anyway, right?)

To go to Barnes and Noble to download for Nook, please click on the book cover to the left. For other ereaders, please check your favorite online bookstore, or visit Smashwords.

The Smashwords edition of Not Exactly Dead is presently free, including at Barnes and Noble for Nook. For other ereaders, please check at your favorite bookseller, or at Smashwords.

The new cover is rather fun, I think. It doesn't hint at the romance stories incorporated with the spy stories, which is too bad (there's lots of good clean romance in this one), but I think it better conveys the overall tone of most of the book, which is humorous.

This is the first book in the MI5 1/2 series.
