Meeting Summary for Still Life by Louise Penny
We ended with a discussion of the title. Gamache and Myrna discuss a personality type that doesn’t grow or evolve, that lead “still lives.” Later, Peter realizes this was Ben. The book ends with a reference to the title as well.

But the case that tugs at her heart, and lands her in danger, is a missing eleven-year-old boy, who may have been snatched by witchdoctors.”(Overdrive eBook & audio; print)
