Where you can pre-order THE COMPETITION by Marcia Clark (not at Amazon) - pub date July 8

Marcia Clark's new novel, THE COMPETITION, comes out July 8, and here's where you can preorder it - some of these are offering discounts:

Barnes & Noble: http://bit.ly/RiLBOL Books-A-Million: http://bit.ly/1hDGkOy Google Play: http://bit.ly/1pZCVcl Hastings: http://bit.ly/1rR9gXC At your local, indie bookstore: http://bit.ly/1jdJBxX iBooks: http://bit.ly/1ooBa8E Overstock: http://bit.ly/1tOkKH7
Description of THE COMPETITION:

A Columbine-style shooting at a high school in the San Fernando Valley has left a community shaken to its core. Two students are identified as the killers. Both are dead, believed to have committed a mutual suicide.

In the aftermath of the shooting, LA Special Trials prosecutor Rachel Knight teams up with her best girlfriend, LAPD detective Bailey Keller. As Rachel and Bailey interview students at the high school, they realize that the facts don't add up. Could it be that the students suspected of being the shooters are actually victims? And if so, does that mean that the real killers are still on the loose?

This is one of the books affected in the Amazon disagreement with the publisher Hachette , so Amazon isn't allowing pre-orders. Once publication date hits, shipment from Amazon may be delayed several weeks and (judging from other new Hachette books) it likely will be at or near full price, without the usual deep Amazon discount.

But don't let this keep you from getting your hands on Marcia's book  or let it hurt her book sales (pre-orders are really important for authors). Call up your local bookstore to order, or click one of the links above.
