Summary

 'Compelling . . . An original voice' PETER JAMES

There is more to solving a crime than following the clues.
Welcome to Chief Inspector Gamache's world of facts and feelings.

Clara Morrow's husband is missing. When he fails to come home on the first anniversary of their separation, as promised, Clara asks the only person she trusts to try and find him: former Chief Inspector of Homicide, Armand Gamache.

As Gamache journeys further into the case, he is drawn deeper into the tortured mind of Peter Morrow, a man so desperate to recapture his fame as an artist that he would sell his soul. As Gamache gets closer to the truth, he uncovers a deadly trail of jealousy and deceit. Can Gamache bring Peter, and himself, home safely? Or in searching for answers, has he placed himself, and those closest to him, in terrible danger?

Critic reviews

Louise Penny twists and turns the plot expertly tripping the reader up just at the moment you think you might have solved the mystery
Clever, full of twists and turns . . . wonderfully satisfying
Penny's elegant style is deeply satisfying, while Gamache is contemplative even when under pressure, and remains a man you want to spend time
Subtle, elegant and beautifully written

Didn’t love it! First time in this series. It just didn’t feel like the same series and it didn’t help that I personally dislike the character at the centre of the storyline. There was no tension, much of it just seemed a little silly to be honest. And it certainly didn’t live up to the book summary. I hope this isn’t a change in direction as I’ve already bought the remaining books!

This is my 10 th book in the series, I’ve loved them all to varying degrees, but this one , I found too long, I felt the writing wasn’t up to the usual excellent standard. I’ll head to book 11 and look forward to it

Just ok

I have loved this series up to now having recently discovered it but wow this book focused on the dullest character and it was DULL, repetitive and self indulgent. Skipped a lot. The start and end are the best bits. Enjoyed it then.

Cured of my addition for a minute

Another enjoyable, character filled book from Louise Penny. Brilliantly read - didn’t want it to come to and end in such a way.

Great listen!
