Publisher Description: "Some Kind of Good" is an occupational novel that reads like PBS's Doc Martin series or All Creatures Great and Small. It is based on real-world in the trenches experiences common to antiques dealers, collectors, and very eccentric connoisseurs. "Some Kind of Good" is the second title in "The Madison Picker" series. Once again Charles and Emma venture from Barboursville, Virginia in pursuit of design merit. They travel to London and Paris. As always, their mission is to travel comfortably, eat well, pick low, and sell high. Be advised though, the Picker Series reads more like a travelogue than a novel. Day-to-day adventures replace plot peaks and every discovery they make is a climax, and there are many. If you like to watch public television's Antiques Roadshow, you'll probably find the Picker Series, "Some Kind of Good." |
