Generous Gifting for Thriller-Lovers

As the gift-giving season for Christmas/Hanukkah/Holidays/Festivus arrives, you can find A Racket in the Burbs for readers on your list who are fans of thrillers, mysteries, and tales of crime. Reviews so far say my book is "The Sopranos, suburban-style" and "a fast read with its gripping story line and twists and turns."

If you're like me and don't like the crowds, feel free to check out A Racket in the Burbs on the web at Barbara's Bookstore, Barnes and Noble, or Amazon.

If you're travelling through O'Hare International Airport sometime this season, please feel free to visit my friends at the Barbara's Bookstore locations there. Thriller-writers like myself, Don Winslow, Carl Hiassen, and Max Allan Collins are available. Booksellers can recommend other goodies as well.

But first,

To all my readers, fans, fellow travellers, and commiserators, I wish you a pleasant Thanksgiving. Take some time this Thursday to be grateful for family, friends, and other lovely people.

To all those who choose to shop on Black Friday and Small Business Saturday, be kind.
