About this listen

Former Chief Inspector of Homicide, Armand Gamache, has found a peace he'd never imagined possible, away from the front line of the police and in the tranquil village of Three Pines. But when his friend Clara Morrow asks for help, he can't bring himself to refuse her, despite the old wounds it threatens to re-open. Clara's husband, Peter, is missing, having failed to come home on the first anniversary of their separation, as promised.

As Gamache journeys further into Quebec, 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 . . .

From number one New York Times best-selling author, Louise Penny, comes an evocative, immersive novel brimming with atmosphere and heart-stopping suspense - her most ingenious novel to date.

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

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!

Hmmm

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!
