A little hard to follow as an audio book. Nice correlation on the twist ending.

This one had major Agatha Christie/Knives Out vibes, especially at the end. Totally hooked on Three Pines at this point.

With the purest of heart I can give 4 stars to this book. Another great story by Louise Penny. I love that she keeps the same characters in every book. And I love getting to know Armand Gamache. This book in particular exposed more about Gamache and I loved it. I also love that I was kind of wrong about Yvette. She’s not all bad and it definitely surprised me!
