Paula Munier returns to Gibson’s Bookstore at 45 South Main Street, in Concord on Tuesday, Oct. 17, at 6:30 p.m. with the fifth Mercy Carr mystery, “Home at Night,” as once again our favorite former-military-police pair (one two-legged, one four-legged) stumble across a body, this time during what is supposed to be a relaxing staycation in Vermont at Halloween. Paula will be joined by Edwin Hill, whose newest book, “The Secrets We Share” will be available in paperback at the event.
