I had loved the character of Pia Grazdani when I first met her in the second book in her series which I had read out of order. This is her introduction book, and I love her even more. She reminds me of Larkin's Lisbeth Salander, if she had been a medical student. I hope to meet her in another of Robin Cook's thrillers, which this certainly was. One of those books that you can't put down and then, when you get to the end, you regret that it is finished!
I have now started My Lucky Life in and out of Show Business, by Dick Van Dyke. I've been looking forward to reading this since I first heard that it was out. I waited too long to buy it and then it was out of print. Luckily I found it from a private vendor on Amazon. It has started as I was hoping: funny, sincere, and charming, perfectly fitting with the public image of this man.
