I said the last book broke me a bit. This one finished the process. While I can’t believe it took me so long to discover this series, I’m so happy that there are so many for me to binge read! ( ) The Inspector goes to Quebec to recover from the grief and injuries from a shocking terrorist attack against both the department and potentially millions of people. Very intricate plot detailing the actions of both Gamache and his agents as well as the arrogant and foolish decisions of his supervisor which cost lives. At the same time, another murder is under investigation in Quebec. The double story, laid on top of each other, is intriguing and slowly unfolds. L. Penny is a genius. Book 6-Excellent story. KIRKUS REVIEWThe sixth appearance of Armand Gamache, North America?s most humane detective.Chief Inspector Gamache of the Canadian S?ret? and his associate Jean Guy Beauvoir are slowly healing from a case that turned horribly bad. Gamache spends hours reading in Qu?bec?s Literary and Historical Society library. Beauvoir, at Gamache?s instigation, reopens the Three Pines murder enquiry that sent B&B owner Olivier to prison. While Beauvoir quietly interrogates the gently eccentric residents of Three Pines (The Brutal Telling, 2009, etc.) to see whether anyone else had motive to kill a hermit for his antique treasures, happenstance lands Gamache in the middle of another murder case. Augustin Renaud, obsessed with finding the burial place of idolized Qu?bec city founder Samuel de Champlain, lies dead in the library?s basement. The riddles of who killed him and why force Gamache and his aging mentor Emile to examine 400 years of Qu?bec history. As they delve for clues among the library?s old journals and diaries, they focus ever more closely on the endless rancor between the French and the English.Gamache?s excruciating grief over a wrong decision, Beauvoir?s softening toward the unconventional, a plot twist so unexpected it?s chilling, and a description of Qu?bec intriguing enough to make you book your next vacation there, all add up to a superior read. Bring on the awards.

An obsessive historian's quest for the remains of the founder of Quebec, Samuel de Champlain, ends in murder. Could a secret buried with Champlain for nearly 400 years be so dreadful that someone would kill to protect it? Although he is supposed to be on leave, Chief Inspector Gamache cannot walk away from a crime that threatens to ignite long-smoldering tensions between the English and the French. Meanwhile, he is receiving disquieting letters from the village of Three Pines, where beloved Bistro owner Olivier was recently convicted of murder. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
