I'm settling in at home after an overstuffed summer -- the perfect time to read a mystery set in a warm (if occasionally sinister) country village. Since her debut ten years ago, Louise Penny has quickly become recognized a modern master of the small town whodunit. "Cozy" mysteries have a lot to offer writers and readers of thrillers. The pace and focus of cozies allow more time for buried secrets, an emphasis on character eccentricities over action, and rich settings.
