Delhi Deadlines, a novel

Hi all

I must confess: I've only just joined, and haven't posted yet, so starting off with a self-promotion is a bit cheeky. I'll try to correct that later with some genuine posts.

My first self-published novel in available on amazon via kdp

It's been up a couple of months, not many sales yet. I'm just exploring ways to promote it, would welcome any suggestions. Promotion not helped by the fact that I'm in China, where Facebook/Twitter/etc are all banned. Thank God for proxies, but still not easy.

Details of the novel (cut-and-paste from Amazon):

Review
"The writing is very very good... the mysteriousness of Wyndham's death and the narrator's involvment will entice the reader to keep reading. " - 2012 Amazon Breakthrough Novel Award (ABNA) Expert Reviewer
Product Description
A washed out journalist, posted to India to cover a bloody election campaign, uncovers truths about his son's life - and death - in the country, truths that test loyalties forged in the war zones of Bosnia and Rwanda. A fiercely evocative narrative of modern-day India, filled with the clamour and hot stinks of its capital, this is a novel of death woven through with life.

Cheers
