4.5 this may be my favorite so far in this series. The setting in the Canadian wilderness is a wonderful character in itself.

This was probably my favorite one yet...the atmosphere, character development, suspense, and humor were all engrossing and enjoyable.

Gamache #4 was the best yet. A trip to Manoir Bellechasse sounds dreamy (minus the murder).
medium-paced

Not quite believable family dynamic.

Another enjoyable instalment in the Inspector Gamache series, primarily because the primary characters are so gentle and likeable. This reminded me of an Agatha Christie mystery as it's all set in one location and the characters convene in one room for the action.
