“If I were teaching a course on how to write a mystery, I would make Carolyn Hart required reading.”—Los Angeles Times
With over 40 books—and Agatha, Anthony & Macavity Awards—under her belt, Carolyn Hart has been delighting cozy mystery fans for decades.
Today’s Free Fridays selection, Dare to Die, is a great introduction to Hart’s writing for new readers, and a wallet-friendly treat for her many current fans. In this Death on Demand mystery, Annie and her Private Investigator husband Max find themselves wrapped up in a local scandal when a troubled woman is found dead following one of their parties. Annie tries to let the local law enforcement handle the case, but soon she and Max seem to be the murderer’s next target—leaving her no choice but to launch her own investigation.
Hart’s irresistible book—set in the quirky town of Broward's Rock, South Carolina, has everything that a cozy mystery fan could want.
Be sure to check out Hart’s newest Death on Demand mystery, Dead by Midnight, available now.
Free Fridays Recommends
Each week, we ask our featured author to recommend a book or author that you may want to check out. Since authors are such passionate readers themselves, we thought you might like to find out what they love to read, too! Here’s what Carolyn recommends:
I always look forward to the newest entry in Ann B. Ross's delightful Miss Julia series. This spring's wonderful Miss Julia to the Rescue will be my reward for finishing the current manuscript. Ann Ross's Southern novels evoke a smile while they touch the reader's heart.
NOOK owners: go to shop and search for “Carolyn Hart” to download her bestselling books.

Thanks to Jeremy for the free book each Friday, and also for the other offers and spotlights throughout the week on the entire Nook Blog! I just finished "Look Again" and it was awesome.

Thanks, Jeremy. A group of us at work do Countdown to Free Book Friday. Thanks for starting a movement.
Love the other offers, too. And just so it isn't all free, this drives me toward other Nook purchases. Love my Nook!

Thank you so much for Free Book Friday and thanks to Spec as well. My library of books to read is getting very large. I enjoy it and I don't know what I would do without my nook. You could take away by blowdryer but not my nook.

I just noticed that B&N is featuring more freebies at the bottom of the page for the Free Friday eBook. Thanks, as always, to Spec and Jeremy for the additional links. Love my Nook! May have to upgrade sometime this year from the original B&W.
