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 assume that the attendants know more than I do about safety issues when I am a passenger on a commercial heavy airliner.  I have piloted smaller General Aviation aircraft and while I was learning and practicing to fly, and then flying by myself;  I learned that the average person actually knows very little about aircraft and flying.
If a particular attendant is not up to speed on how a Kindle works, then no sweat for me... I'll turn her off and tuck her in safely.  I spent most of my flying time, as a passenger, looking out of the window anyway... the views create incredible awake dreamtime............. Not Available Any Place Else!!!!  I generally read her only while waiting for take-off, or if there is a moonless night outside with no rain... however she always goes with me on any flight, I need her company at our destination.
