As usual, I flew through this book wanting to know who the murder was but I find myself more and more drawn to the residents of Three Pines and Gamache’s team. Louise Penny does an excellent job of weaving together the main investigation storyline in each book with her characters’ personal development across the series.

I think I must go back and read the first novel. I liked it but didn't fully understand what the author was trying to do. It'll be a joy to see it from my new perspective.
