Dogs Need Nice Homes, the local charity shop, has lost a favorite customer. Sarah Brown, an 86-year-old who frequented the shop, was murdered under suspicious circumstances. She held a domino in her hand with a name sketched into it upon her death. Not long after, another death occurred, also with a domino in the hand of the deceased.
The ladies who work at Dogs Need Nice Homes take it upon themselves to solve the mystery of the unidentified serial killer and find unlikely allies with the Cats Alliance across the road.
Help the charity shops solve the case with the audiobook version of The Charity Shop Detective Agency by Peter Boland. The audiobook typically costs $33.90, but thanks to Amazon's sale price, you can download the audiobook for just $5.99, which means you'll save a massive 82%.

Why we like it
From acclaimed writer Paul Theroux, Burma Sahib takes a glimpse into the life of Eric Blair, a conscript who's less than pleased about his assignment as a servant to the British Empire in Burma. Adjusting to a new life mixed with fellow British and the language, culture, and people of Burma prove to be a challenge for Blair. Clashing with superiors means Blair is in for quite the adventure in his new home.
Those who are fans of George Orwell books might be particularly interested in Burma Sahib, since Eric Blair chose then pen name of George Orwell.
An Amazon editor's pick, the audiobook version of Burma Sahib is on sale for just $7.99, down from the list price of $25.19 which means you're in for a 68% discount.
