Today Is Pub Day — The Top Five Reasons To Read IDENTITY!
Well, today is the big day. IDENTITY is officially on sale! This marks the end of what’s been a seven year journey to publication for me. I’m hoping it’s the first book of many.
I’d like to offer my sincere thanks to everyone who ordered the book and helped to spread the word. All of you are great. It takes strong word-of-mouth, especially for a debut author, to get any momentum going, but I feel as if we’re going to make a big splash with this one. If you find the time, please review / rate the book — you can do so at amazon.com / barnesandnoble.com / iTunes or goodreads.com, whatever is easiest. Ratings and reviews are a huge help, so thank you ahead of time.
Now, there’s a lot of good stuff going on this publication day:
1) Of course, you can Buy Identity and start reading immediately. The book is just $1.99 until August 21st, then it goes back up to full price, so be sure to grab it now.
2) I’m also the Guest Blogger over at Books R Us. I pontificate a bit about the time I was gagged and bound to a merry-go-round. Be sure to check it out!
3) If you haven’t entered our Free E-Reader Contest, please do. It’s open to everyone, only takes a minute, and did I mention that it’s free? (though you have to help me hock the book).
4) Finally, if you’re still on the fence, even after Praise Like This, I’ll leave you with my top five reasons to read IDENTITY. Thanks again everyone. I hope that you enjoy the book. Let me know what you think!

The corporate greed of Wall Street meets the Hitchcockian suspense of North by Northwest in this thrilling debut by screenwriter Mark Hosack.
One day Paul Majors is a respectable businessman looking into some accounting irregularities in his office’s parent company. The next, he’s wading through a murky world of dark finance, uncovering a vast web of illegal activities in the CEO’s executive circle, being hunted by a ruthless corporate assassin and the FBI, and getting sucked into a second company’s illicit dealings.
As he travels across the United States to unravel the twin mysteries he’s caught in, it’s not clear who Paul can trust—or even who is who. The woman who seduced him at the hotel bar might be there to help, or take him out. The government agents change with a chameleon’s ease. Heck, even Paul’s running around under an assumed name!
In this corporate shell game of names and motivations, Paul’s got 1,500 loyal employees—and his own life—on the line. But it’s becoming dangerously clear that Paul himself is not Too Big to Fail…or be killed.
“Take two dozen, high-end powerbooks maxed out with dangerously shady financial data, mash them up into a sphere, paper mache it with thousand dollar bills, push that ball off the top of a steep mountain, watch it careen wildly until it smashes, exploding in a furious fire of suspense and relentless action, and you’ve got Mark Hosack’s “Identity.” Shari Shattuck, author ofLoaded and Speak of the Devil.
