The Moon in Deep Winter

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.

Many people have bemoaned the fact that they can't purchase a Kindle book to give to a Kindle owning friend. I just got this email from All Romance ebooks/OmniLit and they offer an option for gifting ebooks. So, now it is possible to give a Kindle book. Granted, you are not buying the book from Amazon, but I have bought plenty of ebooks from ARe and they work just fine. OmniLit is their newer division that opened in the summer and they have all sorts of books, not just romance.

From the email:


2 Great Ways To Give eBooks This Holiday Season!

Is there a particular eBook you'd like to give to a friend?

Purchase it yourself by selecting the gift icon on the product page.
Click on the little prezzie icon next to the title in your library.
Enter a custom message and the email of the lucky giftee.
Press the send button.
Listen for the sound of VERY grateful cyber squeals.

Want to give an eBook to a friend but not sure which book they would like?

Purchase ARe/OmniLit eBook Bucks and then go to your library and enter the email address of the person
who is soon going to be your new best friend. If they have an existing account for that email address, the eBook Bucks will automatically transfer. If they don't, they will be invited to open one and start shopping!

Fast. Fun. Affordable. This holiday season...Go Green / Read e


Note that I don't have stock or anything in this company. Just wanted to pass the info on for those who might like to give an ebook as a gift.
