"My bookstore doesn't have The Wide Game on the shelf. Where can I get a copy?"
It is for sale direct from the publisher on the main website at www.bymichaelwest.com
But it can also be purchased from Barnes & Noble.com:
search.barnesandnoble.com/booksearch/isbnInquiry.asp?userid=hE3ZUoqBdf&isbn=1592860729&itm=1
Borders.com:
www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/1592860729/qid=1121812584/sr=1-1/ref=sr_1_1/102-4071014-4557760?v=glance&s=books
and Booksamillion.com:

Or you can simply go to your local bookstore or library and ask for it.
You may not want to know the answers to these questions until you've finished the novel. Read on at your own risk! Did you play the Wide Game?
Well, growing up there was a huge cornfield behind my house. My brothers, some neighborhood friends, and I would sometimes play hide and go seek or war in there. I've just always found them creepy. You can walk down a row and hear noises in the distance but have no idea what's making them because the stalks are so close together--just a thick green curtain of leaves. It's like Let's Make a Deal: "What's behind curtain number 2?" It could be something fun, or something you don't want at all. In The Wide Game, I took that idea and twisted it. What's behind the green curtain might kill you.
What happened to Deidra?
I get this question a lot. This will be answered in my upcoming novel Cinema of Shadows, but if you re-read CHAPTER FOUR, I think you'll have a pretty good idea.
Will there be a sequel?
Well, I never say never, but I don't have plans for a direct sequel at the moment. I will return to the town of Harmony and other places mentioned in the book, and some of the surviving characters will appear in future tales.
