... Standing Still, by Kelly Simmons. Simon and Shuster sent me a copy a few weeks ago; Meredith picked it up yesterday and pretty much devoured it in three sittings, raving about it the whole time. I'll admit: the cover makes me think it's a romance, or some generation-spanning chick lit. But apparently, it's a very taut suspense story about a kidnapping, marital misdeeds and shady pasts. (Check out the UK version, published as Skylight. See what I mean? It's a thriller!)"The Bride Recommends" is an occasional feature in which Swierczy's better half recommends a book.Want to send Swierczy or his Bride a book to check out? Email him for contact info.
