This book actually got me hooked on the Inspector Gamache novels by Louise Penny. I didn't realize it was later in the series, and immediately after finishing it, I went back to the first book (Still Life.) Gamache is a fascinating character - appealing,imperfect, and essentially good. His curiosity about people and circumstances pulls us in, so we are sleuthing right along with him. In our time of clanging, beeping, ubiquitous electronics and machines, he is primarily an excellent observer. Gamache is a blend of realist and humanist who quietly watches and listens to everything around him. If you like intelligent mysteries, with a splash of culture (Quebec), wonderful character studies and skillful plotting, you will love this one!

It isn’t often that I enjoy a whole series of books well enough that I want the whole series on my own bookshelves. Louise Penny doesn’t disappoint with not only intrigue but humor and very human emotion.
