Giveaway - Run For Your Life - James Patterson & Michael Ledwidge


Okay let's start the week off with another great giveaway from the generous folks at The Hachette Book Group!

Run for Your Life is the latest in the Mike Bennett series from James Patterson and Michael Ledwidge.

From the publisher:

"A calculating killer who calls himself The Teacher is taking on New York City, killing the powerful and the arrogant. His message is clear: remember your manners or suffer the consequences! For some, it seems that the rich are finally getting what they deserve. For New York's elite, it is a call to terror.Only one man can tackle such a high-profile case: Detective Mike Bennett. The pressure is enough for anyone, but Mike also has to care for his 10 children-all of whom have come down with virulent flu at once!Discovering a secret pattern in The Teacher's lessons, Detective Bennett realizes he has just hours to save New York from the greatest disaster in its history. From the #1 bestselling author comes RUN FOR YOUR LIFE, the continuation of his newest, electrifying series."

You can listen to an excerpt of Run for Your Life. Here's my review.

Simply comment to be entered. Five copies to be given away. Open to both Canada and the US, no po boxes please. Ends Monday, Nov 2nd at 6 pm EST. Good luck and check the sidebar for ongoing giveaways!

    This book sounds so good! But, I wouldn't expect anything less than a winner from James Patterson.
