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.

Ed - I used the logo from the OED website on the Backword Books page to let people know we're members and supporters. I hope that's okay.

Reese:

When I set you up and send you the troop list, you will be emailing each troop an invitation to read your book - you include the smashword url link and the Code for use by that individual. They insert the code upon check-out.

I'm glad for this review session.  I was 99% sure I was doing it right but I still had doubts.  Thanks!

Decided that before I start marketing my latest BOOK (almost ready to go), I would give it as a gift to the troops first. I just sent out the codes and links. Tomorrow I'll start letting the public know about it.  Grin

Ed, I love getting your notifications of new troops' inclusion in OED.  Makes me feel good everytime I offer my novel to our soldiers.

This received from a military member of Operation eBook Drop

Mr. Patterson,

Thank you for the books and thank you for sending out my email information. I
have received about 200 emails from authors including their book information. It
will take some time but I plan on sending each of them a Thank You note as well.
Thank you again for supporting us troops and for serving our country.
