Stellar . . . With her smart plot and fascinating, nuanced

writers
*People Magazine*
Outstanding . . . Penny effectively employs the interplay of light
and dark . . . which resonates symbolically in the souls of the
characters
*Publishers Weekly*
A commanding and artful performance . . . For connoisseurs of
mysteries, success is judged by the genre's holy trinity: plot,
people and prose. When all three attain excellence, a fourth
quality shines through: power . . . what lifts her work to the
highest plane is the deep sense of humanity with which she invests
her novels, and A TRICK OF THE LIGHT satisfies and surpasses that
standard
*Richmond Times-Dispatch*
Louise Penny's writing is intricate, beautiful and compelling. She
is an original voice, a distillation of both PD James and Barbara
