The Pilot's Wife

Another book that would have made a better short story. This book describes in detail the experience of a airline pilot's wife when she hears her husband's plane had gone down over the Atlantic. As she deals with her grief, she also tries to clear her husband's name when reports show that it may have been suicide. What she finds, however, is that he was leading a double life.

The emotions are written well. I hope that the author never experienced such a loss, but I cannot imagine her writing these characers without having done so. The detail of the mindset and reactions of the wife, her daughter and her grandmother are so vivid, you really get sucked in.

The book is an extremely quick read and I would reccomend it to those who are looking for a mystery/love story/gratifying read. I wasn't overly thrilled, but didn't hate it.
