Magnus Stanke (magnus_stanke) | 14 comments Good morning!
My second book 'Time Lies' is out, and it's actually free today on amazon.

While it's not a sequel to my first book 'Falling in Death and Love', it's part of what I think of as a loose trilogy of retro thrillers, but you don't have to read them in sequence.
Then again, I've been advised to sell this book as a mystery novel rather than as a thriller. Either way, it takes place in cold (war) Germany in the 1980s, and the story deals with identical twins, one of whom is a serial killer.
Hilarity ensues, as you can imagine (well, not quite).

'Time Lies' is still free today so download your copy now!

dang. If I'd known that earlier... But no, that's great. I will keep it in mind for the next promo as this one has now expired. Many thanks, Nat

thank you very much, and thanks also for taking the time to find me here. The peeps at Underground Book Review are lovely. Hopefully more Goodreaders will discover them soon. Do you have a book listed there too? I'd be more than happy to exchange votes.
As you can see, although they chose 'Time Lies' for the perfect pitch shortlist (and my previous book 'Falling in Death and Love' is shortlisted as Best Book of the Year) I'm not very good at getting the word out.
Either way, C.L., I thank you kindly

ditto Nathan, thanks for the welcome!

Happy Christmas everyone :)

Also a heads-up on the following: my first book, 'Falling in Death and Love' will be the subject of this month's readalong here https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

As a consequence it's going to be free this coming Friday, Saturday and Sunday, January 6, 7 and 8 on amazon.
Please join us if you fancy it.

Incidentally the book is shortlisted as 'book of the year' on undergroundbookreviews.org so please vote for it if you think it deserves more attention (and if you don't happen to prefer one of the other books on the list ;) )
Many thanks!

It's only today, so hurry!!!
Much obliged


message 21: by Magnus (new)

Magnus Stanke (magnus_stanke) | 14 comments by the way - the 0.99 promo today is for amazon.com only. My bad, I set it up incorrectly, I'm afraid, but I've added the same deal for this Sunday on amazon.co.uk from 8am....

Magnus Stanke (magnus_stanke) | 14 comments Good morning!

As promised, all day today (until 8am Monday) my first two books are only 0.99 on amazon.co.uk

'Falling in Death and Love' is a chase thriller set on Mallorca. In case you're missing the sun, here's your chance to check it out...

'Time Lies' is dark, brooding 'KrautNoir' mystery, a Neo-Noir German revenge plot set in the Cold War if you're ready for winter...
