Calling all book reviewers and book bloggers! Here’s a deal you won’t want to miss! (I hope!)

If you’re registered with NetGalley and would like a free preview copy of THE SPY WHO NEVER WAS, my forthcoming Nora Baron thriller from Penguin Random House/Alibi, please send me a message through my CONTACT TOM page. I’ll need your NetGalley email address and your reviewing credentials to pass along to the marketing team at PRH. They’ll send you an invitation to a pre-approved digital ARC via a secure widget.

NOTE: Please do NOT send me a message on Facebook or my personal email. The request must go through this website.

Of course, NetGalley members can also make the request directly to the NetGalley site. You can do that HERE. (But going through me and Penguin Random House can pre-approve you.)

As you probably know, word-of-mouth is the most effective publicity/promotion tool for new books–especially ebook originals. Publishers today aren’t laying out a lot of money, time, or effort for authors unless their names are James Patterson or J. K. Rowling, which mine is not. Reviews on the product pages of bookseller websites (especially Amazon and Barnes & Noble) and mentions from book bloggers are life-or-death for “mid-list” writers like me. If you can help with pre-publicity for THE SPY WHO NEVER WAS, you have my gratitude.

To all non-reviewers: THE SPY WHO NEVER WAS will be published on January 9, 2018, and it’s available for pre-order at all the usual places. Direct links to all sellers are listed HERE. Thanks!
