Have you found Louise Penny yet? She creates as distinct a world as did Rex Stout in his Nero Wolfe novels, but adds layers of morality and psychological depth. Her characters are real people; you know someone just like them, just as irritating, just as human, just as sad. Add in wonderful smidgens of humor and great insight on how fine is the line between good and evil. Oh, and did I mention that on top all of that her books are great mysteries? Find this book and read it. Move to Three Pines. You'll never want to leave.
