Where there's smoke by Jodi Picoult

 

'Where there's smoke' by Jodi Picoult

Even as a child, Serenity Jones knew she possessed unusual psychic gifts. Now, decades later, she's an acclaimed medium and host of her own widely viewed TV show, where she delivers messages to the living from loved ones who have died. Lately, though, her efforts to boost ratings and garner fame have compromised her clairvoyant instincts.

When Serenity books a young war widow to appear as a guest, the episode quickly unravels, stirring up a troubling controversy. And as she tries to undo the damage - to both her reputation and her show - Serenity finds that pride comes at a high price.

REVIEW

I didn't know this was a short story (very short), I just downloaded on my Kindle as it was a free book. I was really getting into it and was really enjoying it then it ended!!! I was like 'What!!'. I even deleted it and then reloaded it again to see if it hadn't loaded right in the first place. I then checked on line to see how many pages the book was and that's when I found out it was only a short story, I was really disappointed, I wanted more!

A very enjoyable short story that leaves you wanting more. I have never read any of Jodi Picoult books but this short story has made me want to try.

If you want an easy hours read, would recommend.
