Product Description
This literary thriller revolves around Parker Sloane. When he returns from a dismal foray into third-world cash-smuggling to his childhood home in the woods of New England, it seems he’s seeing his country and his blended stepfamily for the first time—and finding both just as twitchy, desperate, paranoid and unpredictable as the underworld types he thought he’d escaped.

Before he can even unpack, Parker goes head-to-head with his relatives—his tyrannical stepfather, seething younger brother, newly evangelical mother, and his alluring younger half-sister Rita—and with the demons they never exorcised.

Delicately but disastrously, Parker attempts to keep his family from imploding, unaware that they have their own plans for escape. The Moon in Deep Winter combines the dark comedy of the Coen brothers with the doomed lyricism of Denis Johnson, creating an airtight world of homicidal family dysfunction.

I'm considering adding my 14 year old niece's Iphone to my Kindle account. I read a lot of serial killer type books which aren't suitable for her just yet. Can I restrict the books she will be able to download to it in any way?  Or will she "see" everything I have on my Kindle.  Thanks

Add her iPhone to your account, download the books you want her to have to her iPhone and then deregister her phone.  This way she can't poke around.

Thanks.  Can't believe I didn't think of that myself!

Of course, this does then raise the issue of trust. Would it not be better to explain the type of literature you would like to see her reading, leave her associated with the account, and then have a word if you see things that concern you?

Let's face it, when I was 14 I certainly knew how to circumvent parental/supervisoral requests, and that was before the internet. If you don't build up that trust they'll just go around you.
