I'm gonna quote directly from the Random House catalog for y'all. There's a new John Grisham. No really, I mean it. Here's the whole blurb:
Nothing takes the chill out of February quite like the newest legal thriller from John Grisham. This time Grisham pulls out all the stops as he dazzles readers again with the storytelling skill that's made him America's #1 bestselling author.
The headline on the two page spread in the catalog (plus another two page spread in the large-print catalog, and another in the audiobooks) says "John Grisham: The Suspense Never Rests."
Do you see what's missing from these displays? I'll give you a hint: When we pull the book up in our title field, we get "Untitled." There's no mention of characters, setting or time period. They know how much it's going to cost (no, really), and they know it'll be on sale in February, and that these two facts never change between the announcement of a book and its release. No really. Don't look so incredulous. There's a list as long as your arm of media outlets that will be plugging the book.
There's a shit-load of hype, and no, as it were, book.
Hee hee.
