The Brutal Telling by Louise Penny

5.0

I read this at exactly the right time to settle in with a good mystery. I loved the quirky characters especially the quiet yet debonair detective. The joy of reading this book is in how Penny weaves art and literature into the small town Three Pines and the tragedy that befalls them. I can't wait to go back to the beginning and read books 1-4.
