This was another light-hearted addition to Ruth's utensil series and it was really enjoyable for a quick, no drama read. 

I think I enjoyed Jack as the MMC more than Hugh from Forked - his story was tragic but hopeful and I'm a sucker for a huge golden retriever man with a protective streak. I also loved how Cheryl was very reluctant to fall into the fantasy at first and used her brain to work out what was happening. 

I look forward to Knifed to see where this excellent little sub-plot leads us!
