AT THE CITY'S EDGE released today!

by Marcus Sakey

Hey folks, just a quick note to let you know that my new novel, AT THE CITY'S EDGE, is in stores today. You can stroll into any bookstore and buy as many as you like. I'm just saying.

However, if you're in the Chicago area you might want to hold off until tomorrow, when from 7 - 9 I'm throwing a launch party with fellow novelist Laura Caldwell at the uber-swank Landmark Lounge (1633 N. Halsted). Books will be available for sale, and though it's cold outside, you can count on beef tenderloin and a vodka martini with blue cheese olives to warm you up.

Finally, I'm running a contest to celebrate. Entering is easy — all you have to do is join my mailing list. Five runners-up will receive signed copies of the novel. But one lucky grand prize winner will see their name, or the name of someone they love, appear in my next novel. Maybe you'll be a cop, maybe you'll be a corpse.

Who knows? Maybe you'll be the hero.

I promise not to give out your email or swamp you with spam. And every single time I send out a newsletter, I give away free stuff, so there's pretty much no way to lose. Click here to join.

Thanks, folks! I now return you to the regularly scheduled Outfit Collective...
