THE LAST SURGEON Book Launch Party and Fundraiser

Michael Palmer is hosting a book launch party and benefit fundraiser for his latest novel, THE LAST SURGEON on February 16th, 2010 to benefit the Massachusetts General Hospital Home Base Project.

The party will be held at the Paradise Rock Club in Boston -- an evening full of books, auctions, music, great food, and appearances by some of the country's best writers, including Lee Child, Tess Gerritsen, Gary Braver, Lisa Gardner, Joseph Finder, Andre Dubus III, Mark Vonnegut, William Martin, Sandra Lee, and Hank Phillippi Ryan.

All ticket proceeds and a portion of the book sales will benefit the Home Base PTSD Program. It's a great event for a great cause. You can purchase tickets by visiting the LiveNation website.

For those who can't make it, Mr. Palmer encourages everyone to help spread the word. Between today and February 16th, 2010, He'll be conducting a little fundraiser of my own via social media. It's free to participate and a great way to help out. Here's how it works:

1. He'll donate $1 to the Mass General Hospital Red Sox Homebase PTSD Foundation for every additional Facebook fan he acquires until book launch on February 16th, 2010.

2. For you Twitter users, He'll also be donating an additional $1 for all followers who adopt THE LAST SURGEON Twibbon. If you have a Twitter profile, simply click here to get started.

Mr. Palmer thanks everyone for helping spread the word.
