One Good Turn

One Good Turn by Kate Atkinson 418 pgs.

Every once in awhile you are taking a trip and you have a book with you and you are just several pages from the end when the plane lands. Lucky for you, you have some checked bags that are being brought to the jet way and you have another few minutes to read the book while you wait in a row with your fellow passengers. You might have THIS book with you and you might not even be in a big hurry to finish it because most of the details have been wrapped up and you see where it is going. Then you get bored on that jet way and finish those last few pages and at the VERY LAST LINE you are given such a twist to the story that you actually yell out something that makes your fellow passengers stare. You don't really care because at that moment, you consider starting the book from the very beginning and reading it again because it was so good.

This is the second in a series that features character Jackson Brodie and so far the two I've read have been great.
