Congratulations to the winners of Eunsun Kim’s A Thousand Miles to Freedom. The publisher will be sending copies to Cynthia B. from Uxbridge, MA and Carol K. from Columbia, CT.
This week, I have two suspense novels to give away. Here’s the publicist’s description of Peter Swanson’s The Kind Worth Killing. “On a night flight from London to Boston, Ted Severson meets the stunning and mysterious Lily Kintner. Sharing one too many martinis, the strangers begin to play a game of truth, revealing very intimate details about themselves. Ted talks about his marriage that’s going stale and his wife Miranda, who he’s sure is cheating on him. Ted and his wife were a mismatch from the start—he the rich businessman, she the artistic free spirit—a contrast that once inflamed their passion, but has now become a cliché.
“But their game turns a little darker when Ted jokes that he could kill Miranda for what she’s done. Lily, without missing a beat, says calmly, “I’d like to help.” After all, some people are the kind worth killing, like a lying, stinking, cheating spouse. . . .
“Back in Boston, Ted and Lily’s twisted bond grows stronger as they begin to plot Miranda’s demise. But there are a few things about Lily’s past that she hasn’t shared with Ted, namely her experience in the art and craft of murder, a journey that began in her very precocious youth. Suddenly these co-conspirators are embroiled in a chilling game of cat-and-mouse, one they both cannot survive . . . with a shrewd and very determined detective on their tail.”
Or, you could win a copy of Sophie McKenzie’s You Can Trust Me. When her best friend’s death is ruled a suicide, Livy Jackson knows that something isn’t right. Then she discovers evidence that forces her to consider a horrifying possibility: Julia may have been murdered by the same man who killed her own sister eighteen years earlier. Livy soon discovers that the murderer is someone close to her family. When the truth emerges, Livy wonders…is there really anyone she can trust?
