  I downloaded the Kindle app for my laptop but it wouldn't let me get 'In the Blood' free - I had to pay 77p!  :o  ::)  ;D

As original poster said, it is free (again, as comes up on offer regular) from tomorrow, 24th Jan.

Oh Scotmum I'm such an idiot! It's not the first time I've done something stupid like that! :-[  :-[  :-[   :-[
I'll plead 'senior moment'  ;D  ;D  ;D

I don't think the 77p will make the economic crisis worse   :)

Thanks for that info Jane  :)

I was going to buy the book   (proper paper book  ;) )  last month but didn't get around to it and have just this minute downloaded it for free.

Look forward to reading it  :)
