The Nature of the Beast :

Summary: Hardly a day goes by when nine-year-old Laurent Lepage doesn't cry wolf.  From alien invasions, to walking trees, to  winged beasts in the woods, to dinosaurs spotted in the village of Three Pines, his tales are so extraordinary no one can believe him.  Including Armand and Reine-Marie Gamache, who now live in the little Quebec village.  But when the boy disappears, the villagers are faced with the possibility that one of his tall tales might have been true.  And so begins a frantic search for the boy and the truth.  What they uncover deep in the forest sets off a sequence of events that leads to murder, leads to an old crime, leads to an old betrayal.  Leads right to the door of an old poet.
