Crime pays! Oh yes it does! It pays you upto 3% cashback on whatever you spend in Play.com's Crime and Thriller Sale with upto 50% off Books, DVDs and Games!
Play.com have nearly 1000 Crime books on offer in the sub genres of: Crime, Thrillers, True Crime, Kids/Teen, Foreign Crime, Classic Crime, TV/Film, Rising Stars and Audio books. There's even a sale on pre-orders for Crime novels coming soon!
A quick scan through the books on offer (just to assure the quality) finds Authors such as: Ian Fleming (James Bond 007 etc), John Grisham (The Pelican Brief etc), Agatha Christie (Poirot and countless murder mysteries), Martina Cole (Dangerous Lady etc), Lynda La Plante (Cold Heart etc), Tom Clancy (The Hunt for Red October etc), Eddie Richardson (The Last Word) and my particular favourite at the minute, Jeff Lindsay (Darkly Dreaming Dexter etc). With the weather looking almost like sprouting a summer, you'll need a few gritty novels to sink your teeth into while you laze in the garden/on the beach/by the pool.
Close to 300 Crime/Thriller DVDs are on offer featuring well known TV titles such as: Midsomer Murders, Poirot, Cadfael, Miss Marple, A Touch of Frost, Inspector Morse, Prime Suspect, Cracker and 24 (amongst others). It's not all "Stuff we can watch on telly for nothing", pick your way through the lists and you'll find movies like: Oceans Eleven (and Twelve, and Thirteen), Police Academy (and 2,3,4,5 etc), Lethal Weapon (and 2,3,4) and Hudson Hawk. But it is mainly TV crime series and box sets.
Although Play.com have gone to the trouble of creating a whole new section of their website for the Crime Video Games sale, there isn't a great deal on offer, with just 8 titles to choose from. Granted, we have some classics, guaranteed to keep you up till the early hours, every night, for months, but it'd be nice to see a few more on different formats. Picks of the (quite small) bunch have to be Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories on PS2 for £9.99 (too early to expect GTA4 in there) and Need For Speed: Carbon on XBOX 360 for £17.99.
What we have here is an offer you can't refuse from the Godfather of online media sales: Play.com. It'd be a Crime to miss it!
