This is one of the best books I have read in a long time - a great summer read.
It is a collection of short stories which all have "A Twist in the Tale" - which means each story features a very clever ending that is never quite what you are expecting it to be. So much fun to read!
I strongly recommend it - here is the Amazon.com link to the book.
