Or at least one free novel. That’s right, we have a single paperback copy of Laura Lippman’s I’d Know You Anywhere to send to some lucky individual. First published last year, I’d Know You Anywhere has been nominated for an Anthony Award and
already won the Spinetingler Award for Best Novel by a “Legend.” It was just released in softcover earlier this month. If you are not familiar with this work already, here’s the plot line, as explained by Amazon critic Daphne Durham:A cryptic letter from death row shatters Eliza Benedict’s peaceful summer with her family, and forces her to face her long-buried past. Walter Bowman, the man who kidnapped Eliza the summer she was 15 and kept her hostage for weeks, spots her picture in a local magazine and reaches out to her to make amends before his execution. I’d Know You Anywhere is a tremendous novel about fear, manipulation, and survival. Award-winning author Laura Lippman unfurls Eliza’s story in tightly written chapters alternating from present day to that horrifying summer of 1985, creating an emotionally complex drama that is as riveting as it is ultimately rewarding.And you can click here to read the novel’s opening chapter.
