A complete stranger is found murdered inside the local bistro in the small rather remote settlement of Three Pines - a common setting for Inspector Gamache stories. Suspicion falls on outsiders and incomers as attempts to identify the victim are stymied. Eventually it is a village insider who becomes the most obvious culprit. It is Inspector Gamache's insights into evidence and character that leads his team to catch the killer.

Alongside the murder investigation we get glimpses into the lives of the villagers an their eccentric habits, hobbies and relationships, and the ways in which Gamache's team interact and develop a worldview with his prompting and leadership.

As always, Louise Penny has produced a book of great subtlety and character within a violent setting and narrative. Very often nothing seems to happen, but her painting of characters and emotions show us that everything is happening, often all at once.

Another highly recommended read from this unfailingly excellent series. ( )

KIRKUS REVIEWChief Inspector Gamache of the Canadian S?ret? is again called to restore order to the tiny Quebecois hamlet of Three Pines.Olivier and Gabri, gay owners of the Bistro and B&B, insist they that they don?t know the dead man and can?t imagine how he came to be lying on their floor. That?s not quite the truth, but it?s merely the setup for the first of many surprises. The real story will unravel for Gamache and his subordinates Beauvoir and Lacoste in startling ways. These include the discovery that the corpse has been moved three times by two different people; the return of a father declared dead over 20 years ago; a word woven into a spider?s web; and the disclosure of several wood carvings emanating evil that require Gamache to fly to British Columbia and inspect totem poles. Priceless antiques sequestered in a hermit?s cabin and sorrowful tales of Czech citizens cheated of their belongings will come to light before Gamache, to his considerable distress, will have to arrest a friend.Penny (A Rule Against Murder, 2009, etc.) is a world-class storyteller. If you don?t want to move to Montreal with Gamache as your neighbor¥or better yet, relocate to Three Pines and be welcomed into its community of eccentricsÂ¥you have sawdust in your veins, which must be very uncomfortable.

(2009)The first book I have read in this series. Very well written police procedural. This is all about the characters and Gamache is one of the best I have come across. Here he goes to the small town of Three Pines, Quebec to try to find out who the victim of a murder where he is moved twice in the town. Turns out the murdered man has stolen various pieces of art and treasure from Czech and is using this collection to finance his hermit life in the forest outside of town. A local bistro owner has used this stolen goods to finance his successful rise in the community. But, the impending finding of his cash cow causes him to then kill the Hermit.KIRKUS REVIEWChief Inspector Gamache of the Canadian S?ret? is again called to restore order to the tiny Quebecois hamlet of Three Pines.Olivier and Gabri, gay owners of the Bistro and B&B, insist they that they don't know the dead man and can't imagine how he came to be lying on their floor.

Murder shouldn't be funny, but Louise Penny always solicits chuckles from me with her Chief Inspector Armand Gamache series. I simply adore the gang in Three Pines (makes you want to up and move to this quirky Québec town) and the new characters/inhabitants introduced in this installment. The murder in this one is like a strange game of duck, duck, goose. ( )

While constant readers may think they know all there is to know about its eccentric villagers, Penny is a great one for springing surprises.
