Meet Louise Penny

and her dog, Muggins in an interview at the Library of Congress first mystery book event, Pick Your Poison. Recorded Oct. 26. She's such a delightful person and I especially enjoyed hearing about her working with Hillary Clinton on State of Terror.

She is very entertaining in person, and I love Chief Inspector Gamache and the whole world she has created.
