Divine G Entertainment makes wrongful-conviction novel free on Kindle for 5 days

Divine G Entertainment is offering John "Divine G" Whitfield’s novel "No Other Love" free on Amazon Kindle from Oct. 14-18, 2026. The Brooklyn-set crime story draws on Whitfield’s own wrongful-conviction experience and doubles as a push to introduce readers to the company’s broader catalog.

Why it matters: - The five-day free promotion lowers the barrier to a novel centered on wrongful conviction in New York’s criminal justice system. - The offer also serves as a discovery tool for Divine G Entertainment’s broader catalog across paperback, digital and audio.

What happened: - Divine G Entertainment made "No Other Love" available at no cost on Amazon Kindle from Oct. 14 through Oct. 18, 2026. - The novel is set in Brooklyn in 1994 and follows Dinasia Whitman and Tislam Parker, who met in New York’s foster care system and are four months from aging out. - A shooting outside a public housing development leads to Parker’s conviction for a murder committed by another man and a sentence of 30 years to life. - Five years later, Whitman learns evidence of Parker’s innocence may still exist, along with people who have reason to keep it buried. - The book is available at Amazon Kindle and returns to standard pricing after the promotion ends.

The details: - Author John "Divine G" Whitfield wrote the novel while serving 25 years in New York State prisons for a crime he has long said he did not commit. - Whitfield is still pursuing official exoneration. - His life inspired the A24 film "Sing Sing," where he is portrayed by Colman Domingo. - "Sing Sing" received multiple Academy Award nominations, including Best Actor for Domingo and Best Adapted Screenplay, a credit Whitfield shares. - Whitfield also appears in the film. - While incarcerated, Whitfield co-founded Rehabilitation Through the Arts, a nonprofit that brings theater and creative arts programming into New York State correctional facilities. - Whitfield has published eight novels. - He has received four PEN Awards, the Tacenda Literary Award and a United Nations citation for advocacy on education in detention. - Since his release in 2012, Whitfield has worked as a youth counselor in New York City and now works as a train operator for the Metropolitan Transportation Authority. - "No Other Love" is also published in paperback and as an audiobook narrated by the author. - Divine G Entertainment says the promotion is also meant to introduce readers to its catalog, which includes eight novels in paperback, digital and audio editions. - The company says three titles have been produced as cinematic audiobooks with separate voices for each character and sound design under each scene. - Additional information is available at Divine G Entertainment. - Information about Whitfield’s exoneration campaign is available at Free Divine G.

Between the lines: - The promotion ties a personal wrongful-conviction story to a broader argument about access, visibility and cost. - Whitfield’s comment frames the book as lived testimony rather than fiction built from detached research. - The company is using the free window to reach both readers who avoid unfamiliar authors and readers for whom even a small purchase price is a barrier.

What's next: - Standard pricing resumes after Oct. 18, 2026. - Divine G Entertainment is likely to use the promotion to drive attention to its other books and audio projects. - Readers are being encouraged to leave an honest review on the retailer platform they choose.

The bottom line: - The free Kindle window is a short-term sales promotion and a long-term brand play for an author whose work is inseparable from his exoneration campaign.
