Want a Free Paretsky Short Story?

Pay Dirt is a prequel to the adventures of Cady Perec. Cady is a social studies teacher in Lawrence, Kansas, who plays a big role in Pay Dirt. She also appeared the first time V.I. Warshawski went to Kansas in ¹ó²¹±ô±ô´Ç³Ü³Ù.ÌýAs you’ll know when you read Pay Dirt, Cady has a hard time with her school board. What you won’t find out in Pay Dirt is that she gives up teaching and becomes a sheriff’s deputy. I write about her first serious case as a deputy in the short story, “Storm Warning.â€�

“Storm Warning� brings together a lot of my favorite KansasSara Paretsky Pay Dirt characters who live in the part of the Kaw River valley where I grew up. This story is yours for free if you do one of two things: pre-order Pay Dirt or ask your library to add it to their collection. My librarian friends tell me to go to the front desk and ask if they are ordering the book for their collection. Just [image error] and the story will come to you as a PDF. Heads up; this is Cady’s story, not V.I.’s.

Ruth Lym It has been more than 2 hours since I requested this free PDF, after pre-ordering Pay Dirt. I have yet to get the PDF of this, as promised. When I try again, it just tells me that they already have my email address to send the PDF to. I thought I posted something here about this about an hour ago, but it looks like there are no posts here. Did anyone ACTUALLY get the PDF? If so, how long did it take for you to get it. Thanks.

Ruth Lym I still haven't gotten the PDF, or any communication from Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ or Sara Paretsky. I have repeatedly looked in my spam folder and my promotions tab (gmail), and nothing. What is happening. I can't be the only person who has not received this. Am I?
