It's only been two weeks since Motion To Kill debuted to rave reviews and now I'm excited to offer a free pdf Advance Reader Copy of the next book in the series, The Last Witness, to anyone who'd like to read it and review it prior to its launch in early August. Email me at joel@joelgoldman.com for all the details.
In the meantime, here's a quick snapshot of the story and what a couple of your favorite authors have already said about The Last Witness.
Lou Mason is back and this time, it's personal when his surrogate father, Homicide Detective Harry Ryman, arrests his best friend, Wilson "Blues" Bluestone, Jr. for murder. Mason unearths secrets someone will do anything to keep as he closes in on a desperate killer, setting himself up as the next target."Fast, furious and thoroughly enjoyable, The Last Witness is classic and classy noir for our time, filled with great characters and sharp, stylish writing."
Jeffery Deaver, author of The Vanished Man and The Stone Monkey
"The Last Witness is an old fashioned, '40s, tough guy detective story set in modern times. There's a lot of action, loads of suspects, and plenty of snappy dialogue. It's a fun read from beginning to end."
Phillip Margolin, author of The Associate and Wild Justice

My cousin, Stuart Jaffe, has just released 10 Bits of My Brain. He takes you across the Fantasy and Science Fiction landscapes with ten wide-ranging stories including three all-new tales. From the tiny life of a fly to the far reaches of space, from an elderly witch in WWII's Lublin ghetto to a dragon detective in the modern world's harsh streets, from tattoos and chess games to robberies and betrayals, these stories are packed with action, drama, and a bit of the weird.
Trust me! You won't want to miss this terrific anthology!
Joe Posnanski was a sports writer for the Kansas City Star for a number of years before joining Sports Illustrated. But he is so much more than a sports writer - he's a writer's writer. His prose captures the moment and the person so well I can only wish I was that good.
Read his story about Nick Charles, one of the original CNN sportscasters. Enjoy it as a reader and, if you're a writer, use it as a lesson.
Wow! Motion To Kill has 16 rave reviews on Amazon and has been liked by 43 people! Boy, do they know what they're talking about! Grab a copy and find out!
TOP SUSPENSE announces the release of DIE LOVER, DIE! The most fun you'll ever have for 99 cents and the most fun I've ever had writing a short story!
Lauren Blaine is on the run...fleeing across the country, pursued by a pack of ruthless, skilled, and psychopathic killers.
That's she's dumped her husband and he hasn't taken it well.
Of course, he might have taken it better if he wasn't a major drug dealer with a gale-force temper... and if she hadn't run off with all of his cash.
Now she's marked-for-death, a moving target for every mercenary, hitman, and sadist in the midwest.
What they don't know is that Lauren is nobody's victim... she's a resourceful, brave, and cunning woman who won't go down without a fight.
This is 10,000 words of non-stop action, violence and sex...a wild ride like nothing else you've read before...from twelve masters of suspense, who teamed up to write this rollicking story 250 rapid-fire words at a time, tag-team style, without an outline, without knowing what was coming next. The result is a pure, literary adrenaline rush.
