KB Book of the Day
The Moon in Deep Winter
by Lee Polevoi

$0.99
Kindle Edition published 2008-01-10
Bestseller ranking: 460964

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.

A note frm David Atlkinson, our UK liaiason:

"Hi Ed,
 
Hope things are going well over your side of the pond.
 
Just to let you know that I got some air time of Op EBD across four of our local BBC radio stations last night. There is a recording available on the following link http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/console/p006swj1 My interview is in two bits, at 22 minutes and 50 minutes into the show. I cover E-book drop at about 55 minutes into the recording. "

Passed out a few cards today. . .had a client who mentioned she was considering a Kindle with her tax refund. . .of course, I got to give a demo and that sold her (told her to come buy through the board here. Roll Eyes )  Anyway, she meets with a lot of servicemen so I told her to spread the word about OEBD and gave her some extra cards to share. . . . .
