Last of the big spenders giveaways!
How to play: Leave me a comment using the word "mark" in a sentence. BE ORIGINAL: Do not use "mark" as a proper noun (automatic disqualification).
Oh, yeah, about the book:
In this page-turning sequel to the national bestseller Stalking Susan, TV reporter Riley Spartz pursues a curious story of a bride left at the altar and finds herself caught in a dangerous missing-person case.
When Riley Spartz sees a want ad reading "Wedding Dress for Sale: Never Worn," her news instincts tell her the backstory might make an intriguing television sweeps piece.
The groom, Mark, last seen at the rehearsal dinner, never showed up for the wedding, humiliating his bride, Madeline—and her high-strung, high-society mother—in front of 300 guests. His own mother, eager to spare him further embarrassment, waited weeks before filing a missing-person report, and then learned how difficult it is to get police, or the media, interested in missing men.
Now Riley is up against a boss who thinks finding a famed missing fish will net the station higher ratings, a meth cartel trying to assassinate a K-9 dog because of his powerful nose for drugs, and a neighbor who holds perpetual garage sales that attract traffic at odd hours.
When her missing-person case leads to a murder investigation, Riley discovers a startling motive for Mark's disappearance—and a TV exclusive guaranteed to win the ratings... if she lives to report it.

i think i must be really mean as i keep coming back for more. don't know the book, but would be willing to learn. incidentally, right by me is a picture of Savages - i'm reading it now and think it's (probably) my favourite book of the year thus far. light like sponge, poetic and hard as hell somewhere in the centre - amazing.
Nigel -- you're not mean, you're just a glutton for punishment! Isn't SAVAGES brilliant? Let me know what you think of the ending.
