This could have been the end of the series. I’m glad there’s another due out in 2021, though.

Louise Penny never disappoints me. My heart is with these characters who are like old friends now, with their capacity to delight and surprise me and even, at times, to devastate and hurt me.

I don’t know if this is a spoiler, but


I learned about the fruit of a poisonous tree in law. It’s an elegant image of something quite ominous. Also, and this is definitely a spoiler, why is everyone in this series moving to Paris? Boo.
