Always good to read a well written book. In "Woman with a Gun" Phillip Margolin takes time and builds the scene. As an example, a character does not simply drive to his destination: "Then Jack hit the coast highway, a narrow, twisting road on the edge of the ocean. When Jack risked a westward glance, he saw jagged rock formations that rose like giants from the Pacific and waves crashing on the beaches that ended below high, weatherworn cliffs." Characters are well developed. Hints to eventual outcomes are present early on, but are well hidden by the casual presentation. As the story wrapped up, I found myself saying "oh, yeah, I knew that..."
