Inside Job by Connie Willis
99 pages
Published 2005
Read from April 22 to April 23
Rating: ★★½ out of 5
Another filler book to boost my count, but it has an advantage over Willis' D.A. in that it at least has a mildly clever premise and a reason to exist as a published story. The characters and their motivations felt somewhat flimsy, but the conceit of an inveterate skeptic coming back from the spirit plane to discredit psychics and flimflam artists is winsome, and overall Inside Job seemed like more care and thought went into it than into D.A. -- it felt much more like an actual Connie Willis story than that hackjob ever did.
