KB Book of the Day
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.

Thanks so much!  Grin Grin Grin I rarely win anything, so this is so exciting. In fact, I need a new BB bag since I'm getting my first ever cover (an Oberon) next week and the current bag will be too small. So it's perfect timing!

Thanks to Borsa Bella and to Harvey. I love these contests for the mere fact that they provide endless lists of books to read. I've always found a few books that I love from every single contest thread.  Smiley

Congrats to the winners!  Even though I didn't win, I'm so glad there was a contest.  It made me aware of Borsa Bella.  I just bought a travel bag yesterday and can't wait to get it!  Cheesy
