Giveaway - Final Demand - Deborah Moggach

I'm sure you know Deborah Moggach's name. She's the author of The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel and many other books. Well, the North American release of her novel Final Demand is June 6/17. And.....I have five copies to giveaway to five lucky readers!!

What's it about? From the publisher, Overlook Press:

"The beautiful, bright, and ambitious Natalie should be doing something with her life. But instead, she’s stuck in a dead-end job and instead of improving her place in the world by her own efforts, takes advantage of the honesty of those around her, ultimately leaving them damaged and broken. Of course she denies responsibility, even when confronted with undeniable evidence that she is involved. So, when she sees a chance to change her life, she doesn’t hesitate to take it, even if it’s at the expense of someone else. After all, it’s only a minor crime. Nobody’s going to get hurt.

But Natalie’s actions actually do have unforeseen and tragic consequences, and the ultimate question is will she be capable to meet the final demand to own up to what she has done? Emotionally taut and beautifully written, Final Demand is a cautionary tale about the battle between greed and love, and our own frailty in the face of temptation."

"Final Demand is receiving praise as a "chilling, impeccably plotted novel" (Cosmopolitan), that goes "inside the mind of a pretty, freckled villain..." (Kirkus Reviews)."

"Deborah Moggach is the author of many successful novels, including Heartbreak Hotel and In The Dark, both published by Overlook. Her novel Tulip Fever has been adapted for film and The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel was made into popular movies starring Judi Dench, Bill Nighy, and Maggie Smith."

If Final Demand sounds like a book you'd like to read, enter to one of five copies being offered using the Rafflecopter form below. Open to continental US only, no PO boxes please. Ends May 23/17.

I just love Deborah's books. I have read several (Close to Home, Porky, Seesaw etc) Tulip Fever was one of my favourites. Thrilled to read that they've filming it. Actually, I as surprised to see this book on your blog as she wrote this back in 2001. Perhaps it's being re-released in NA. Moggach is a writer who deserves to be more widely known/read here.
Disappointed that I can't enter your contest but thrilled that you're promoting her books. I haven't had a chance to read Final Demand yet but I know that the winner will be in for a treat :D
