The Expats by Chris Pavone & Giveaway




I recently read The Expats by Chris Pavonne and I highly recommend it as a fun summer thriller.  It's so fun and easy to read, it's like thriller candy. It's tightly plotted ride. 



Here's a description of the book:
In the cobblestoned streets of Luxembourg, Kate Moore's days are filled with playdates and coffee mornings, her weekends spent in Paris and skiing in the Alps. But Kate is also guarding a tremendous, life-defining secret—one that's become so unbearable that it begins to unravel her newly established expat life. She suspects that another American couple are not who they claim to be; her husband is acting suspiciously; and as she travels around Europe, she finds herself looking over her shoulder, increasingly terrified that her own past is catching up with her. As Kate begins to dig, to uncover the secrets of the people around her, she finds herself buried in layers of deceit so thick they threaten her family, her marriage, and her life. 

The book won the best first novel category for the Edgar Awards from the Mystery Writer's of America.

I have one book to give away. If you would like your name put in the virtual hat, leave a comment below. We will pick a winner by August 15th.
