I loved this book; one of my favourites so far in the Inspector Gamache series. From a slow-paced start it builds to a climax that at one point had me literally holding my breath. 
The characters are as well-drawn as always, and I particularly love the relationship between Armand Gamache and Jean-Guy Beauvoir.
the scene where Jean-Guy tells Gamache Annie is pregnant, and calls him "Armand" for the first time and neither of them even notice. Wow. I cried. Just a bit. 
Some great backstory for Ruth too.

I love Three Pines, although the lack of internet would bug me. And I guess the murder rate. Oh well, nowhere is perfect.
