The Authorized Version

I was thrilled when my publisher told me that Sam's Club is selling A Very Private Grave and it has been enormous fun to hear from friends around the country that they have, indeed, seen my book there.                                                                                              

In order to support Sam's Club in their efforts to promote great literature, I am offering a book giveaway.  Here's how it works:  Anyone who buys a copy of A Very Private Grave at a Sam's Club during the months of November or December and notifies me in a comment below or by e-mail through my website, giving the store number of the sam's club where they purchased A Very Private Grave will be entered in a drawing for a free copy of A Darkly Hidden Truth, Book 2, The Monastery Murders, which will be released in 2011.  Just to whet your appetite, the first chapter is included in the back of A Very Private Grave.  

Of course, you can enter for each book you buy— so take your whole Christmas list to Sam's Club and get all your shopping done in one glorious spree.

To receive a free autographed bookmark for yourself or your gift purchase, send me your address and names of those you want personalized autographs for through my website.

I will draw the winning name and send you e-mail on New year's Day, so you have plenty of time to purchase for yourself and all your friends— unless the supply runs out.
