A Fatal Grace

A Fatal Grace (Chief Inspector Armand Gamache #2) by Louise Penny  311 pp.

I am late to the bandwagon of Inspector Gamache fans. So far I am enjoying them. In this episode Gamache returns to the small Quebec town of Three Pines to investigate the murder of CC de Poitiers, a recent arrival in Three Pines. CC is a woman no one, including her husband, her emotional abused daughter, and town residents liked.  Gamache is called on to investigate the murder, an electrocution which took place in front of most of the townfolk at the annual holiday curling tournament. In addition, he is investigating the death of a bag woman whose case was inexplicably moved into the cold cases sooner than it should have been. The investigation is hampered by the brutally cold Quebec winter. I figured out the killer long before the ending but it didn't stop my enjoyment of the story.
