Pocket Notebook giveaway
Posted by Harvey on February 4, 2010 at 1:15 pm  

Pocket Notebook is published today, and to mark the release I have five copies of the book for YOU to win.

Pocket Notebook is the debut novel from serving police officer Mike Thomas. An angry black comedy, it follows PC Jacob Smith, tactical firearms officer, steroid abuser and gun obsessive, and his very public breakdown and subsequent fall from grace, all of which he meticulously records in his police notebook.

To win a copy of the book plus a very limited edition Pocket Notebook er…notebook, you have to head on over to watch the trailer, then answer me the following question:

What kind of police officer is Jacob Smith?

Answers in the comments below please, and I’ll draw five winner out at random at 5pm. NB Only comment once - if your comment looks like it’s disappeared it hasn’t, I need to approve it on our system before it is included. Rest assured, you’ll be entered! Good luck!
