GIVEAWAY: 3 copies of The Secret Speech by Tom Rob Smith

May 3, 2010 by Darlene


Hey everyone, I have a great giveaway for you courtesy of Valerie at Hachette Book Group. I have 3 copies of The Secret Speech by Tom Rob Smith up for grabs. I received a copy the other day and boy does this book sound good! The Secret Speech sounds like one of those books that would be fantastic for your book club – what with the sins of the past threatening to destroy the present! Hachette Book Group has even provided a Reading Group Guide to assist your book club in their conversations.

About the Book

Tom Rob Smith–the author whose debut, Child 44, has been called “brilliant” (Chicago Tribune), “remarkable” (Newsweek) and “sensational” (Entertainment Weekly)–returns with an intense, suspenseful new novel: a story where the sins of the past threaten to destroy the present, where families must overcome unimaginable obstacles to save their loved ones, and where hope for a better tomorrow is found in the most unlikely of circumstances . . .

“THE SECRET SPEECH continues the headlong pace of Child 44.” — Wall Street Journal

About the Author

Tom Rob Smith graduated from Cambridge University in 2001 and lives in London. His first novel, Child 44, was a New York Times bestseller and an international publishing sensation. Among its many honors, Child 44 won the ITW 2009 Thriller Award for Best First Novel, The Strand Magazine 2008 Critics Award for Best First Novel, the CWA Ian Fleming Steel Dagger Award, and was longlisted for the Man Booker Prize. You can visit Tom’s website at www.TomRobSmith.com and follow @tomrobsmith on Twitter.
