Free Paperback Giveaway – New Detective Matt Jones Thriller

 

Kindle copies are up on Amazon and available for pre-order on the I’M ALL BETTER NOW detail page. Paper editions are up as well but won’t be visible or available for purchase until October 12. But I’m hoping to have 10 paperback author copies in about 10 days. If you have any interest in a sneak peek, a FREE SIGNED PAPERBACK before the book goes on sale, I’m taking the first ten readers who send an email to me at robert@robertellis.net. Please write “Matt Jones Free” in the subject line and include your name, address, and whether or not you’d like your copy to be personalized.

If you prefer eBooks, a 100-Kindle Goodreads Giveaway begins on September 12 and ends on launch day, October 12.

Can’t wait until October 12!

Matt Jones Book 5 Update | Early Kirkus Starred Review

This week we received great news. I’M ALL BETTER NOW, Detective Matt Jones Book 5, earned a prestigious “Kirkus Star” and received a glowing review from Kirkus Reviews. They used words like “a taut atmosphere,” “a roller-coaster case,” “a racy, enjoyable read.” And the review kept going and called I’M ALL BETTER NOW “an eclectic, compulsively readable detective yarn.” The following day, we learned from Kirkus Reviews that they plan to feature the review in the October issue of their magazine. Wow. This book feels special. Cannot wait for October 12 and the day Matt Jones is finally out and about!
