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.

I signed up for it, and sent the link to my novel on Smashwords to all the military personnel I had e-mail addresses for. I think this a cool thing to do for them.

Ed, forgive me for asking, but is there something I'm supposed to be doing in order to be a part of this?  Just want to make sure I haven't dropped the ball anywhere...

thanks!

Jon:

Sorry for the delay. I've been tied up and will be processing a bunch of new author requests and a new troop tomorrow evening. I just sent you an email with the set-up requirements.

Thanks

Hello everyone, I'm a participating author.  I just completed my first ebook drop for Alison Wonderland for all the names on the list.  I don't use Smashwords so I have sent each member of the scheme an individual link to the book via the Tyger Books site: http://tygerbooks.co.uk

Thanks for organizing this, Ed.

Best wishes

Welcome, Helen.

Well I gave the interview tonight and I hope I did you all justice. (or I'll run nd hide).  Grin BTW, I noticed we got a 3rd "What are You Smoking" vote on the poll. Another opinion defended by our brave service personnel. Long may I smoke it.
