One Good Turn by Kate Atkinson

This is a "sequel" to Case Histories, although both novels are fine by themselves. It's a sequel in the sense of the next in a series of mysteries that have the same detective as a protagonist.

Case Histories is a great book. One Good Turn is a good book. This book is about coincidences. As the protagonist says, "A coincidence is just an explanation waiting to happen." There are plenty to characters all linked by coincidences, with what I'm beginning to recognize as Atkinson's trademark style of tying everything together in unexpected ways.

It's a good read - not as great as Case Histories, but still well worth it.
