Fiction Pick of the Week:When will there be good news?
When will there be Good News? by Kate Atkinson
This is a fantastic read – complex plot, interesting characters and a lot of insight into the human mind and relationships. Thirty years after a small child escapes the crime that destroys her family, the man convicted of the crime is released from prison. Soon after, a young doctor and her baby seem to have gone missing – or perhaps not. When the 16-year-old nanny insists that all is not right, Detective Chief Inspector Louise Monroe and former detective Jackson Brodie have to put their own demons aside to put together the pieces. This will be a popular read with those who love mysteries and suspense.

Great review. If you are looking for something really good, in the same genre, but different, the try Mojo by Kris Sedersten
I haven't read a great mystery in sometime, chiefly because I feel like I've been spoiled by James Ellroy. Thanks for sharing this book. I have read this book of fictitious parables, The Three Insights by Tim Pond. It's not in the same genre, but a great read nonetheless. Cheers!
This was such a well-written book--it really had me hooked from the beginning! I first heard of it at the Beans 'n Books program last year, and had to put it on hold for myself. I wasn't disappointed, and now I make a point of reading other books by Kate Atkinson.
