Torchwood: The House That Jack Built by Guy Adams

Torchwood #12: The House That Jack Built
by Guy Adams
This was a great adventure with Jack, Ianto, and Gwen. It jumped around in point of view, so we get to see events unfold from the perspective of these characters as well as the perspectives of outsiders looking in. There's a hilarious jerk of a doctor who has to navigate the Torchwood Hub somehow in a wheelchair, swearing the whole time. There a poor chap who sinks into the sidewalk and dies. And there's a charming young couple who just inherited a house. A house that Jack Harkness once lived (and loved) in that now seems to be haunted. Oh goodie!
This book had a lot of great moments, including a "Jack, the fact that you used to live here is actually not a coincidence" moment and an "awwwwwwwwwwwww, poor frozen!Ianto!" moment. I really enjoyed this book and getting to see this author's take on some of my favorite characters.
Pop Sugar Reading Challenge: A book with a title that's a character's name
(okay, I read this to mean a book with the character's name in the title... which might be a little off in interpretation, but it's already down in pen, so I'm stuck counting it as such)
