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 enjoying your pics.
Alas, I have posted all of my outdoor flowers and flowering plants as well as all of my orchids (I think).
Most are through flowering this year anyway.
So I will now just sit and enjoy the posts here.

I still have plenty of hibiscus blooms but I think I've shared one of each color so I'm in watching mode too. Thanks everyone else.

In the last photo?  The bottom one is saffron and the top is Lemon Grass.  Don't remember what the side one is.

And the little placards are labels for the containers which have seeds of the item in them.
The containers are  attractively exhibited in fake flowers, right?

Thank you, Cobbie! That's very kind of you. And, I know it's hard to branch out, so an extra helping of thanks for that. I hope you enjoy it. Made my day.  Smiley

PM me and I can send you the link to that photo and you can download it.  Glad you like it, Susan thought it was staring at her.

Oh, and for the new comers, those photos are at the US Botanical Gardens in DC taken when I went down for a kindle meet up.
