Tragedy has struck once again in the remote Canadian town of Three Pines, but the horror of this particular case is at a scale much higher than former Chief Inspector Armand Gamache has seen here. A member of the community, near and dear to the hearts of many, has died under mysterious circumstances right after a large cannon was found in the woods. Now that Gamache is no longer the official boss, he must figure out where he fits into the investigation, and the stakes are higher than ever.
After the slower previous book in this series, Louise Penny really picks up the narrative, making it clear that Inspector Gamache will not have a restful retirement. The high stakes of this case, and the horrors that have occurred in connection to it, make for a thrilling and harrowing tale about the monsters among us.
