Another good book in the Inspector Gamache series. There were quite a few subplots as always, but they were great in giving a deeper perspective of the many characters in the town. I am very curious as to what will come of Gamache's role in the surete.

Molto carino. Non ho mai pensato che fosse stata Hazel, piuttosto Gilles o Odile. Peró la motivazione di Brebeuf nel tradire Gamache mi sembra piuttosto fallace.
I like this series. This book is the best one I have read so far. The method of the murder was very odd and I'm sure anyone could really ever pull it off. I enjoy the characters and the process of solving the mystery.
LOVE LOVE LOVE everything about these books. The descriptions are so rich. I both can relate to the familiarity and pine to experience of the spring air, wood stoves, newly greening foliage, rich and savory foods and drinks. And as for Chief Inspector Armand Gamache, who would not want to spend an afternoon having drinks with the man? Or simply watching him. Reading about him will just about cut it. One of my favorite literary characters of all time.
Døden i april er et velkomment hensyn med Louise Penny og det skønne univers hun har skabt i Three Pines. En by der sprudler af charme og hygge, og er befolket med den mest excentriske blanding af indbyggere – og så tilfældigvis har den højeste mordrate i verden.
Som det er set i hendes tidligere bøger, tager Louise Penny endnu en gang et seriøst emne under behandling. Denne gang er det bl.a. jalousi der behandles – gemt i et fantastisk mordplot.
De faste læsere vil i dette bind lære mere om Gamache og hans baggrund. Derudover ser man en del mere karakterudvikling, der har været savnet lidt i de tidligere bøger. Vi lærer mere om hans forhold til familien, og hvad der egentlig skete den gang med Arnot sagen.
Også nogle af byens indbyggere lærer vi mere om, eks. Clara Morrow og hendes spirende kunstnerkarriere – der følges interessant gennem hendes mands misundelse. Og den fantastiske digter Ruth, der denne gang stifter bekendtskab med to gæs.
Der er god fremdrift i fortællingen, og et interessant plot til at fastholde læserne – samtidigt med at bøgerne er ganske underholdende. Og så er der den helt fantastiske stemning byen byder på – man ønsker bare at sidde foran pejsen og nye en sprød croissant.
Endnu et glimrende bind fra Louise Penny.

My brain has been complete mush lately and I swear I started this book over about 4 times before I really fell into the story. That sounds like a horrible thing to mention in a 5-star book review, but I want to make it clear that it was 100% worth all the struggles I strangely had with it. (Confession: I took notes for the first few chapters to get my brain back on track.)
The Inspector Gamache books are overflowing with characters but this book I feel like I finally have the names down. If this has turned you off from the books in the past, I have to encourage you to press on.
This isn't much of a review is it? I guess I really just want to cheer you on if you have been on a Three Pines struggle bus. Louise Penny has an incredible talent for writing both hilarious and lovable characters as well as characters you want to punch square in the nose.
I switched between the audiobook and Kindle version of this book because I couldn't wait to find out what was going to happen next.
