Interesting first novel in the Three Pines mysteries. I found the plot interesting, really had little idea about who had murdered Jane Neal. I found it difficult to get the feel of the town and the main characters. Perhaps the fact that I am not familiar with the rural Quebec theme and found several references to traditions, etc. different colored this. I liked the book, but did not love it. I may go on and read the second book, but I'm not sure. To me it pushes the boundaries on being a true cozy mystery, which I prefer to read.
