Goodreads is giving away 15 finished copies of GOOD GIRLS LIE! US and Canada only.

About the book:

Goode girls don’t lie…

Perched atop a hill in the tiny town of Marchburg, Virginia, The Goode School is a prestigious prep school known as a Silent Ivy. The boarding school of choice for daughters of the rich and influential, it accepts only the best and the brightest. Its elite status, long-held traditions and honor code are ideal for preparing exceptional young women for brilliant futures at Ivy League universities and beyond. But a stranger has come to Goode, and this ivy has turned poisonous.

In a world where appearances are everything, as long as students pretend to follow the rules, no one questions the cruelties of the secret societies or the dubious behavior of the privileged young women who expect to get away with murder. But when a popular student is found dead, the truth cannot be ignored. Rumors suggest she was struggling with a secret that drove her to suicide.

But look closely…because there are truths and there are lies, and then there is everything that really happened.

J.T. Ellison’s pulse-pounding new novel examines the tenuous bonds of friendship, the power of lies and the desperate lengths people will go to to protect their secrets.

THE LAST SECOND Goodreads giveaway.png

Goodreads is giving away 50 copies of THE LAST SECOND! The new Brit in the FBI is a rip-roaring “Indiana Jones-style” adventure thriller. You won’t want to miss it! Giveaway ends March 25 and it’s US only.

About the book:

From New York Times bestselling authors Catherine Coulter and J.T. Ellison comes, THE LAST SECOND, a riveting thriller pitting special agents Nicholas Drummond and Michaela Caine against a private French space agency that has the power to end the world as we know it.

Galactus, France’s answer to SpaceX, has just launched a communications satellite into orbit, but the payload actually harbors a frightening weapon: a nuclear-triggered electromagnetic pulse. 

When the satellite is in position, Galactus’s second-in-command, Dr. Nevaeh Patel, will have the power to lay waste to the world with an EMP. A former astronaut, Patel believes she is following the directions of the Numen, aliens who saved her life when she space-walked outside the International Space Station. She is convinced that with the Holy Grail, just discovered by the owner of Galactus—eccentric treasure hunter Jean-Pierre Broussard—she can be reunited with the Numen, change the world’s destiny, and become immortal with them.

The countdown has begun when Special Agents Nicholas Drummond and Michaela Caine are thrown into the pending disaster. They must stop the EMP that would wreak havoc on communication and electronic systems on Earth, resulting in chaos and anarchy.

Sunday Smatterings

Smatterings - Summer.png

Hello, chickens! Where does this Sunday find you? I am cuddled on my couch, exhausted, and a wee bit sick with a lovely, I've overdone it summer cold. I had a busy, busy week, with a surprise last minute edit of TEAR ME APART. That happens sometimes. The release date moving up means all our regular dates got thrown out and we're all working double-time to get the book done and in your hands. But it is DONE! And I think it's actually pretty good. I'm a terrible judge of my own work, and this one's been playing mind tricks on me for months. But with the help of my fantastic editor Nicole, we've got it together. 

So with that, on to the links! Here's the latest news and bookish goodness!

Here's what happened on the Internets this week:

Neil Nyren Spotlight: Owen Laukkanen. I’m looking forward to reading Gale Force—and hello Neil Nyren, byliner. There's nothing more fun than seeing a fabulous editor finding a second career!

 

An Affable Canadian Author With a Penchant for Murder. Always lovely, always a joy, even when she’s breaking your heart. That’s Louise Penny for you. Class act, all the way around.

 

Being Bored Is Fun and Good, Sorry. OK, this is hysterical. I agree that boredom is a great thing, and necessary, but this essay takes it to a new level.

 

Gillian Flynn, Amy Adams and Patricia Clarkson Aren’t Afraid to Tackle Big Topics. It’s going to be an important year in books and film portraying women and emotional darkness. My own book, TEAR ME APART, goes to some very dark places, and is a study in women's friendships, mothers and daughters, sisters, the works. I'm excited by the timing, because I think it's time to start addressing these issues. 

 

The Best Mystery Audiobooks for Road Trips. Great books on this list! I am such an audiobook convert! 

 

A Librarian’s Top 5 Tips to Help You Build a Home Library. "As a librarian, I have a particular soft spot for geeking out about building a DIY home library, so get ready: this is some next level bookshelf and bookcase nerd." Say no more!

And closer to home:

 

JTEllison_StoriesoftheNight_800.jpg

Some exciting book news - the paperback and ebook of STORIES OF THE NIGHT: FOUR SHADOWY TALES is ready, and the audiobook will be out this week!

  • A writer finds a cave keeping a dark secret for nearly a century.

  • A ghost in a Scottish castle seeks blood on a wedding day.

  • A student abroad loses herself in a dreamy art dealer and his dark painting.

  • An undercover cop searches for the lover who’s haunted him for years.

These four stories from New York Times bestselling author J.T. Ellison reveal what happens when we allow ourselves to step toward the darkness—and find ourselves consumed with regret and doom.

Features my newest short story “Catwood,” as seen in DEAD ENDS: Stories from the Gothic South!

PAPERBACK 

 

The German translation of NO ONE KNOWS is here! (yes, again...) It's available in ebook and paperback. It's a new edition, too, so if you already purchased, please update your file!

And don't forget: Goodreads has a giveaway for TEAR ME APART. Good luck!

And speaking of Goodreads... please consider adding TEAR ME APART to your bookshelves. You doing so really helps raise awareness for the book.

Oh, speaking of awareness... the June newsletter is coming out this week! FYIs.... If you're not signed up, I'd love to have you. 

That's all for now! Here's hoping this next week treats you well. Make something -- a poem, a cake, a bed. It will make you feel good. 

xo,
J.T.
