Winners and a Presidential Giveaway

Congratulations to the winners of the last contest. Jane K. Cleland's Deadly Threads will go to John T. of Helen, GA.  Louise S. from Harrison, NY will receive the autographed copy of Rosemary Harris' Slugfest. I'll put the books in the mail tomorrow.

This week, you have your choice of two crime novels involving presidents. Joel Fox's debut mystery, Lincoln's Hand, takes FBI Special Agent Zane Rigby to Springfield, Illinois. A blackmail note from 1901 found with a hand indicates that Abraham Lincoln's body might be missing. Since Rigby embarrassed the FBI in his search for the Monument Bomber, he's the perfect person to send on this case. But, the FBI had no idea what they were getting into.

Or, you could win Steve Berry's The Jefferson Key. Former Justice Department operative Cotton Malone foils an assassination attempt on the U.S. president, but finds himself at odds with the Commonwealth, a secret society of pirates that came together during the American Revolution. The thriller holds secrets from Thomas Jefferson, Andrew Jackson, and the Founding Fathers.

So, which president do you want to read about, Lincoln or Jefferson? You can enter to win both books, but I need separate entries. Email me at lholstine@yahoo.com.  The subject lines should read, either "Win Lincoln's Hand" or "Win The Jefferson Key."  Include your name and mailing address in the body of the email.  Entries only from the U.S., please.

The contest will close Thursday, June 30 at 6 PM PT when I'll draw the winners using a random number generator.  The books will go out in the mail on Friday.  Good luck!
