The Brutal Telling by Louise Penny
4.0

My favorite Penny so far! This one was set in Three Pines and had a startling ending that I definitely wasn't expecting.

When a body is found in a local establishment, everyone is surprised because no one can seem to identify it. We meet the family who has bought the old Hadley House and is turning it into a day spa, which has set the town's gossip machine in motion.

There's a big focus on antiques and horses in this mystery, if you enjoy those. And of course, plenty of comforting french food to keep your stomach growling.
