Euthanasia. Post pandemic that had a quick, sudden end. Murders years apart. The best part is the relationships of the characters and their growth thru the series.

I had a harder time with this one. Some of it is that I've had a hard time focusing on anything but especially at the end, everything was so chaotic! Gamache trying to get the murderer to confess by coming up with a million scenarios that could have happened. Still a solid addition but I may need to relisten when I'm in a better headspace.
