It's trick or treat time in my neighborhood, and publishers are playing along by offering lengthy free previews of forthcoming novels as an enticing temporary fix for fans (in the case of two new James Patterson offerings) or as a way of introducing undiscovered gems (in the case of a free preview of an intriguing new Oliver Pötzsch thriller that AmazonCrossing has brought out just in time for Hallowe'en). We're sometimes a bit suspicious of the implicit bait-and-switch nature of such deals, but we reap what we sow. During the past couple of weeks we've offered our readers substantial free excerpts from two Joe Konrath books that have moved with lightning speed up the ranks of Kindle bestsellers, so who are we to complain? So we'll place three of these free previews at the top of today's free listings, and if you don't feel you've been treated, perhaps you'll trick us by soaping our windows or wrapping our house in tissue....
But first, a word from ... Today's Sponsor
Speaking of Hallowe'en treats, what could be treatier than a chance to win a free Kindle wi-fi just for purchasing and downloading a copy of great new release page-turner of a suspense novel, Blank Slate
, from one of our favorite authors, Zack Hamric? (Yes, many Planet iPad fans consider the $139 Kindle reader
a perfect complement to their iPads).
Ahh, but let's not forget about the book itself. Here's the set-up:
Blank Slate
Just released by Zack Hamric, author of Crescent Rising
- 8 five star reviews out of 9
Kindle Price: $2.99 Text-to-Speech: Enabled
What happens when the Russian mob decides to go in business with the Columbian cartels in Miami? Nothing good, as Kyle Jackle quickly finds out in this tropical thriller. His mission to topple an organization involved in human trafficking and drug running takes him from the dangerous backstreets of Naples, Italy to the gritty underbelly of Miami. After almost being beaten to death in an alley one evening, he awakens to find himself hunted by the mob, unable to trust anyone he meets, and with no memory of his past life.
