MixedThe Globe and MailThis isn’t Penny’s best book in this series. There are too many references to \'if it were your daughter\' and the ruse used to get Homer to Three Pines is simply silly. But that said, as a transition to a new set of stories and plot lines, A Better Man works. There is a twist at the end that will not please some readers but it is in character and manages to take us from the mud and snow of early April to the promise of better days and better men to come.
