aa2q7 's review for:

The Long Way Home by Louise Penny

3.0

---

Unfortunately, this book isn't representative of the series and is a very slow burn. It might not even be burning... Most of the book is spent searching for Clara's husband, Peter, and you're not sure if he is dead or if he's just got better things to go. There's a bit of mystery and action at the end which would've made for a better book IMO, but instead everything is just kinda sad.

Spoiler

.They finally find Peter, caring for an old art professor in a remote village, but then he's tragically killed by the other, jealous art professor who earlier killed the sick one.

Of course, I'll keep reading the series, but probably going to take a short break.
