Big Sky By Kate Atkinson

Big Sky By Kate Atkinson Details

Big Sky is laced with Atkinson s sharp dry humour and one of the joys of the Brodie novels has always been that they are so funny Observer Jackson Brodie has relocated to a quiet seaside village in North Yorkshire in the occasional company of his recalcitrant teenage son Nathan and ageing Labrador Dido both at the discretion of his former partner Julia It s a picturesque setting but there s something darker lurking behind the scenes Jackson s current job gathering proof of an unfaithful husband for his suspicious wife seems straightforward but a chance encounter with a desperate man on a crumbling cliff leads him into a sinister network and back into the path of someone from his past Old secrets and new lies intersect in this breathtaking new literary crime novel both sharply funny and achingly sad by one of the most dazzling and surprising writers at work today
