Here is the first sentence for "A Fatal Grace" by Louise Penny, for Book Beginnings at Rose City Reader.
"Had C.C. de Poitiers known she was going to be murdered she might have bought her husband, Richard, a Christmas gift."
On page 56 for Friday 56 at Fredas Voice is:
"I suggest we give each other our unsolved cases and spend a few days reading over them. See if we can find something."
This is the second book in the series and I enjoyed the first one. The detective is Inspector Gamache and he works in a small town in Quebec.

I love this series and have read the first 4 of them.
I did read and love this one, after I read the first one. Thanks for reminding me that I want to read more in this series. I love Gamache!
Here's mine: “I’VE GOT SAND IN ALL THE WRONG PLACES”
I shall look out for these - I am always on the lookout for a new author.
I haven't heard of A Fatal Grace before. I do like the writing from the beginning and the 56. :-)
Great review, looks like an interesting and intriguing book. Have a great weekend.
Hugs, Noreen
I love this author! I'm reading The Brutal Telling by Louise Penny right now. I had missed it somehow so I am happy to find one I haven't read. On page 2, "The terrible force has destroyed everything in its way. The Old World and the New. All gone. Except...." Happy reading! Hugs!
I haven't tried that series but it sure sounds good!
LOL Sounds mean.
Happy Labor day weekend!
I need to check out this series. I need a new one!
That's a strange and kind-of funny beginning. I'm wondering who is telling the story.
This sounds like a series I'd enjoy.
My Friday post features BAREFOOT AT SUNSET.
What a attention grabbing opening. Thanks for sharing. Happy Friday!
Hello, I found your blog through The Weaver of Grass. I saw that you were featuring a Louise Penny novel. She is one of my favourite authors. I have read all of her books and am eagerly awaiting the next one. Her descriptions are wonderful. I hope you enjoy this book. -Jenn

Thanks for the recommendation. It sounds like a good read ♥

Thanks for the recommendation. Sounds like my kind of series.
It's a great first line! Definitely makes you want to find out what the rest of the book is all about. :)
I really need to put this on my to-read list. I think I'd really enjoy them.
P.S. You've won my book giveaway. I just wrote about it in tonight's post. Congratulations!
I think I'd like that series of books, too. Love the first line!
