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.

25 different and free ebooks:
http://www.fictionwise.com/eBooks/freebooks.htm?cache

(I have yet to download one but will soon)

Are these ones really free? I went to the link, selected a few of the titles and then was prompted for a way to pay $.50 since my order was less than $5.00.

Anyone else try this and get them for "free"?

$.50 is added to any purchase under $5 at Fictionwise if you choose PayPal.  Try again but click on the button that says "check out" to the right of "Micropay" and see if that ammends the problem.   Smiley

Yeppers.  That is the way to do it, just click Check Out.  I just downloaded with no problem.
