Twenty-Two Caliber Varmint Rifles

Wolfy

Bestselling British author Plass (Bacon Sandwiches and Salvation) offers an intentionally offbeat story of bereaved widower David Herrick, who suffers intensely following the loss of his beloved wife, Jessica. Herrick, a popular Christian speaker, finds it sadly ironic that the very words and pat phrases he offers to listening audiences aren’t doing him much good in his personal sorrow. With the arrival of a letter and an invitation from an old friend, Herrick travels to a former haunted bed-and-breakfast and rejoins classmates from years earlier; during their gathering, they eventually expose their deepest longings and struggles. Keenly attentive to his own skewed view on life at present, Herrick finds himself strangely moved by his former friends’ individual plights and begins to glimpse small slivers of hope in the cracks of brokenness. No matter how he tries to shut out the divinely orchestrated lessons, Herrick finally surrenders and what he discovers surprises him most of all. Finely tuned and sensitively written, this moving story reminds readers that everyone bleeds the same on the inside. (June)

Praise for Andrea Camilleri and the Montalbano Series&ldquo;The idiosyncratic Montalbano is totally endearing.&rdquo;&mdash;The New York Times&#160;&ldquo;Camilleri is as crafty and charming a writer as his protagonist is an investigator.&rdquo;&mdash;The Washington Post Book World&ldquo;Hailing from the land of Umberto Eco and La Cosa Nostra, Montalbano can discuss a pointy-headed book like Western Attitudes Toward Death as unflinchingly as he can pore over crime-scene snuff photos. He throws together an extemporaneous lunch of shrimp with lemon and oil as gracefully as he dodges advances from attractive women.&rdquo;&mdash;Los Angeles Times&ldquo;[Camilleri&rsquo;s mysteries] offer quirky characters, crisp dialogue, bright storytelling&mdash;and Salvo Montalbano, one of the most engaging protagonists in detective fiction&hellip;Montalbano is a delightful creation, an honest man on Siciliy&rsquo;s mean streets.&rdquo;&mdash;USA Today&ldquo;Camilleri is as crafty and charming a writer as his protagonist is an investigator.&rdquo;&mdash;The Washington Post Book World&ldquo;Like Mike Hammer or Sam Spade, Montalbano is the kind of guy who can&rsquo;t stay out of trouble&hellip;Still, deftly and lovingly translated by Stephen Sartarelli, Camilleri makes it abundantly clear that under the gruff, sardonic exterior our inspector has a heart of gold, and that any outburst, fumbles, or threats are made only in the name of pursuing truth.&rdquo;&mdash;The Nation&ldquo;Camilleri can do a character&rsquo;s whole backstory in half a paragraph.&rdquo;&mdash;The New Yorker&ldquo;Subtle, sardonic, and molto simpatico: Montalbano is the Latin re-creation of Philip Marlowe, working in a place that manages to be both more and less civilized than chandler&rsquo; Los Angeles.&rdquo;&mdash;Kirkus Reviews&#160;(starred)&ldquo;The novels of Andrea Camilleri breathe out the sense of place, the sense of humor, and the sense of despair that fills the air of Sicily."&mdash;Donna Leon
