Friday Freebie: The Bramble and the Rose by Tom Bouman
Congratulations to Carl Scott, winner of last week’s Friday Freebie contest: Little Constructions by Anna Burns.
This week’s contest is for The Bramble and the Rose by Tom Bouman. This is Book Number 3 in the Henry Farrell series, of which Craig Johnson (Longmire) advises: “You would be hard-pressed to find a finer new series than Tom Bouman’s Henry Farrell novels because of the complexity of the plots or the richness of the characters, but what it really comes down to is just damn good writing.” I have a hardcover copy of the new book to put in the hands of one lucky reader. Will it be you? Keep scrolling for more information on the novel and how to enter the contest...
A headless stranger is found in the woods of Wild Thyme, a small town in the Endless Mountains of Pennsylvania. All signs point to a man-killing bear, and Officer Henry Farrell would just as soon leave this hunt to the Game Commission. But doubts arise when he discovers the victim was a retired investigator. What drew the investigator to sleepy Wild Thyme? Before Henry can find answers, his own nephew disappears into the hills. Then an old flame dies under suspicious circumstances, leaving Henry as the prime suspect. Torn between protecting his family and clearing his name, Henry fights to protect the most he’s ever had to lose.
