Penny Nichols and the Knob Hill Mystery
 DescriptionPenny Nichols' father is a private detective frequently called upon by the police for help on their cases. Penny, herself, a mid-teenager, has the curiosity and investigative intelligence, both to see and solve mysteries almost on a par with her elders. The setting here, is a small community, in which her father has rented a cabin for both of them (no mother nor siblings). Before they have time to settle in, mysterious things begin to happen. Both her father and Penny soon have their hands full of puzzles, requiring their efforts, to be unraveled.
An Audience of Chairs
 List Price: $19.00 DescriptionJoan Clark’s An Audience of Chairs opens with Moranna MacKenzie living alone in her ancestral Cape Breton farmhouse, waging a war with the symptoms of bipolar disorder and grieving the loss of her two daughters, taken from her over thirty years previously. There are few people remaining in her life, as Moranna cannot help but tax the patience of nearly everyone she encounters. Her long-suffering brother Murdoch has her best interests at heart, though he is fatigued by her enormous needs and pressured by his ambitious wife to invest less time in her. Pastor Andy politely sloughs off the peculiarly intelligent yet unpalatable sermons Moranna pens for him. Her neighbour Lottie knows what it is to be an eccentric and can be counted on to come through in a pinch. The local RCMP constabulary smooths over her legal scrapes. And her lover Bun, who lives with her when not working on the ferries between Cape Breton and Newfoundland, knows how to give her a wide berth on her “foul weather” days. Thanks to the assistance of these sometimes reluctant guardian angels, as well as to the carefully planned inheritance left by her father (not to mention her own sheer ingenuity), Moranna has managed to get by all these years despite small-town gossips and tormenting youths.
