Free Kindle Version of Debt, a comic novel by Rachel Carey, through 11/18/13

A FREE Kindle version of the Silver Birch Press release DEBT, a novel by Rachel Carey is available through Monday, Nov. 18, 2013. You can download the Kindle version— which retails for $6.99 – for free at Amazon.com.

WHY WE LOVE THIS BOOK: The tone, setting, and subject matter of Debt by Rachel Carey — a comic look at New York City, money, and social status — resonate like The Bonfire of the Vanities on fast forward. More than 20 years after Tom Wolfe‘s masters of the universe ruled Wall Street, it’s a very different financial picture – everybody has gone bust, or is on their way there. Debt features an extensive cast of characters that would feel at home in a novel by a Charles Dickens, a crime caper by Donald Westlake, or satirical work by P.G. Wodehouse. Debt is a fast, funny read — tackling a serious subject with a light touch and a lot of heart.

BOTTOM LINE: Great story, engaging characters, funny, witty, clever, incisive, insightful, and original. Read it — for free!

NOTE: If you don’t own a Kindle, you can download Kindle read apps — for free — at Amazon.com.
