THE CRUELEST MONTH
Louise Penny. THE CRUELEST MONTH. 2007.
Mad dies of fright at a seance. Armand fights betrayal from his beloved friend. The near enemies -- love vs. attachment. Pity vs. compassion. Indifference vs. equanimity. This one I hadn't read.

The first inspector Armand Gamache crime story. An elderly woman is killed in the woods outside Three Pines. Her paintings of the fair contain the clue. Re-reading a favourite, as part of a borrowed boxed set.

TRUST YOUR EYES
Linwood Barclay. Trust Your Eyes. Doubleday. 2012.
Hawthorne Book Club selection for October. Often I find Barclay too scary for my enjoyment. This one was not so bad. Set in New York state. Much violence as a political tool but interest picked up as the characters became more likable. A special needs brother, an artist brother, a father dead in an accident at home, a mystery based upon an Internet image from Whirl360.
