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.

Fellow OYB Readers,

Linda & I thought it would be a good idea to set up a separate section for prayer requests. I really like this idea because when prayer requests are made in the monthly sections, they seem to get lost in the shuffle. Now we will have them all in one place! Smiley

If you have any suggestions for this Klub, feel free to chip in. It's everyone's book klub!

Love,

Suzi

Love this idea because we can keep a handle on who needs what and there are a lot of very special and important needs out there.

Please add my brother in law Gil for prayer.

He is 83 and has bad pneumonia, has systemic blood poisoning and needs oxygen while he is in the hospital.  He also has a bad heart and this could set him into cardiac arrest.

He just went in a few hours ago.

Thank you,

-Sailor

I often wake up during the night, so I will start to pray now and continue all through the night for Gil and your family.

My sister just called me and Gil isn't expected to make it through the night.  His heart is giving out, his organs are beginning to shut down and he has lost too much blood pressure.

She had the Priest anoint him with Holy water and Holy oil so it is just a matter of waiting now.  She won't resuscitate him.

Thank you for all your prayers,

Sailor

Gil passed on a little after midnight this morning.  Thank you all for your prayers.
