Giveaway: The Brutal Telling ARC by Louise Penny



I have received an extra ARC of The Brutal Telling by Louise Penny and would love to send it to one of my readers. This book will out in hardback on October 1, 2009. I haven't read it yet, but it sounds very interesting and I am looking forward to reading and reviewing it.

Here's what Tara Cibelli the Marketing Manager had to say in the included letter:

Chaos is coming to the lovely, seemingly tranquil town of Three Pines, just over the Canadian border. It begins to show its face one morning when a murdered man is found lying on the old pine floor of the beloved bistro and antiques store run by Olivier and his partner, Gabri. No one has ever seen the man before--or admits to having seen him--until a mysterious cabin, filled with priceless treasures, is uncovered deep in the woods. Clearly the hermit must have lived there and died there, and someone has been bringing him fresh groceries--in exchange for what? And just how did Olivier make such a spectacular success of his antiques business?

Chief Inspector Gamache and his team are called in, and much as they personally like the man who has hosted so many wonderful meals, they must ask the uncomfortable questions. Meanwhile, the cabin yields up extraordinary pieces of evidence--from signed first editions of Charlotte's Web and Jane Eyre to a spider web with the word "WOE" in it--that will send Gamache to the remote Queen Charlotte ISlands in search of the hermit's secrets, then back to Three Pines to confront the brutal truth.

Taking care of #1 and #3 to enter the contest!

I love the books that Louise Penny has written (and I have told her so on her blog). She has created a world where I would love to live. Three Pines is a perfect village, if only it weren't for all those pesky murders going on! And Inspector Gamache (and his wife and his team) is a wonderful creation. I tell everyone I know in the mystery community about her books and I would love the chance to read the 5th book in the series before October. I am so glad that she is already working on the edit for the 6th installment.

Thanks,
Marjorie from Connecticut
