  • Missing Episode: When all of Emma Lathen's books got Kindle releases, the first and fifth Stafford books, Murder: Sunny Side Up and Murder Out of Commission, were absent from the lineup, while two other Stafford novels got released on Kindle twice (one of them erroneously using the title of Murder Out of Commission).
  • Recycled Script: Both Murder: Sunny Side Up and Murder Out of Commission have many distinct elements and characters, but in both books two scientists get murdered by a peer who once studied under one of them to prevent them from revealing a dangerous flaw in his new invention. The denouements of both books also have the protagonists dismiss the industrialists the scientists were working for as serious suspects due to feeling the stakes weren't high enough for them.
