Challenge: R.I.P. IV

Despite my almost complete reviewer's block, I'm signing up for the R.I.P. IV challenge, hosted by Carl at Stainless Steel Droppings. It runs from September 1st to Halloween. I'm going to try to do Peril the First:

Read four books of any length, from any subgenre of scary stories that you choose.

I don't know which four books I'll use but this is my pool so far. Maybe not all scary stories but they are all mysteries or thrillers so they qualify. All Canadian authors, of course.

• Obit by Anne Emery (library)
• Barrington Street Blues by Anne Emery (library)
• Cecilian Vespers by Anne Emery (library)
• Still Life by Louise Penny (mine)
• Last Stop Sunnyside by Pat Capponi (mine)
• All Shook Up by Mike Harrison (mine)
• Dead Water Creek by Alex Brett (library)
• The Magyar Venus by Lyn Hamilton (library)
• African Ice by Jeff Buick (library)
• Vengeance Road by Rick Mofina (mine)
