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 am in California near Palm Springs...my coverage has been perfect so far at home.  I got the Kindle to take in our Motor Home when we travel..that should be interesting.  I will just make sure I have enough books downloaded before we head to a place I think could have questionable coverage.  How ever the coverage issue works out it will still be a lot better than carrying a big bag of books with me because of storage and weight issues.

Would I kid about Staten Island???  Tongue Yep, lots has changed here in the 23 years I've been here....population almost at 500K whereas it was just over 200K when I got here. I was born in Manhattan though.

Funny, my mom doesn't live far from you, just over the border in NC  Tongue

Well I've been gone from Staten Island for going on 18 years now.  It's funny that I really have had no desire to go back there either.  Manhattan is a different story though Wink

Hell's Kitchen makes me think of food and really good looking British Chefs who swear a lot.
ProfCrash- Hell's Kitchen is a lot different today than when I grew up in the '50's & 60's! However, Restaurant Row (around the corner on 46th between 9th and 8th) was there then and quite popular with those who could afford to eat there, just like today!

I live in Sacramento, CA and have had great coverage all other Northern Cal, even in the foothills (taken to the in-laws to "show off") I have Sprint Cellular service, and was able to download a book in an area of very poor coverage on my phone.

Ok - No Whispernet in far SW Kansas (Ulysses); No Whispernet two hours east north-east in Kinsley, KS; Four bars of coverage 26 miles south of Kinsley in Greensburg, KS - interesting.
