Dear Librarian, I’m excited (and, well, abashed) to tell you that Publishers Weekly just gave my new book, KILLER INSTINCT (out May 16) a starred review, calling it a “masterful” thriller that “builds to a rousing and satisfying climax.” You can bet I’ve got that review hanging over my desk. I’d like to offer you and your patrons an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the kind of unique research I do for my novels that’s led Fortune magazine to say, “At long last someone has done for executives what John Grisham did for lawyers.” (Yep, that’s up on the wall, too.) Recently, Malcolm Gladwell (bestselling author of The Tipping Point, Blink) and I recorded a fascinating conversation about such things as why corporations prefer to hire athletes and why Albert Einstein would have made a great salesman and are the best CEOs really charismatic. If you’re one of Gladwell’s millions of admirers, you’ll want to listen, here, for some great insights you won’t find in any of Malcolm’s books. It’s a substantive conversation not just for readers of fiction but for all your patrons who devour business books. Feel free to add this link to your websites and newsletters. KILLER INSTINCT (like my last couple of New York Times bestsellers, Paranoia and Company Man) is a fast-paced, often funny, tale of intrigue and ambition in the corporation. It’s the story of an easy-going salesman for a big company who lacks the old fire in the belly — until a new friend starts giving him some deadly help up the corporate ladder. . . To spread the word about my novels, I’m offering a FREE SIGNED COPY of KILLER INSTINCT to 5 readers, chosen at random. Just e-mail me at joe@josephfinder.com by May 16th, write “free book for librarians” in the subject line, and include your mailing address. And thanks so much for your support! Joe Finder
