Hey Amazon buddies -

Long time no post. I wanted to thank everyone who's ordered copies of THE MARK and/or THE GUILTY. I sincerely hope you enjoy the books.

I'm happy to say THE GUILTY has been getting fantastic reviews, which you can check out here.

And I'm thrilled to announce that my first novel, THE MARK, has picked up two award nominations:

"Best First Novel" by the Strand Critics Circle.
"Best First Mystery" by Romantic Times magazine.

And if you sign up for my mailing list, you'll get a sneek peek at early cover art for my next novel, THE STOLEN, coming August 2008. You can do this and check out a slew of new reviews, interviews and other goodies at www.JasonPinter.com.

The Parker Papers

7:20 AM PDT, August 21, 2007
Things are picking up speed on my second Henry Parker novel, THE GUILTY, which hits stores in March. In addition to the final cover art, which I should receive soon, I've commissioned a special illustration of the book's villain. I think this character will really get people talking.

With that in mind, make sure to subscribe to my newsletter, as I'll be sending out cover art for THE GUILTY, as well as this special illustration, very shortly. I've also posted a bunch of new photos, links and news on my website, check them out.

You can subscribe to my newsletter, "The Parker Papers", as well as find tons of new info, at www.JasonPinter.com.
Thanks to everyone who bought a copy of THE MARK, you've made my experience as a debut author everything I could have hoped for.

Final Cover Art for THE GUILTY

1:15 PM PDT, August 8, 2007
...will not be seen today. BUT I will be showing the final art for the second Henry Parker novel exclusively to people on my mailing list. Naturally I will be posting the cover here at a later date, but come on, do you really want to be the kind of person who gets the week old milk? Or buys a Playstation 2 when the PS3 is out? Or still buys Tommy Hilfiger jeans? (you catch my draft)

Anyway, head on over to www.JasonPinter.com and sign up for my mailing list, and be one of the first kids on the block to see the ultra cool cover art for THE GUILTY. In the meantime, head on over to jasonpinter.blogspot.com for a small piece of the puzzle...

"From the opening sentence to the exhilarating conclusion, Pinter's debut thriller gets the
reader's heart racing." --Library Journal (starred review)

"Pinter's debut novel showcases his fresh, witty voice and appreciation of the writers who've gone before him in the genre. Henry's a terrific amateur sleuth, and if he survives
this adventure, readers will undoubtedly look forward to many more."
--Romantic Times

"Read THE MARK and you will be introduced to a terrific new talent, Jason Pinter,who has written a gripping page-turner you won't be able to stop reading."

—Jeffery Deaver

the nail-biting first page to the explosive ending."
