The Brutal Telling by Louise Penny
4.5
challenging dark mysterious reflective sad tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes
I wish I could put into words why I think this series is so good.  It's more than just the solving of a mystery.  It's about relationships, the culture and history of Quebec and Canada, and the reflective mind of Armand Gamache.  This particular story will stay with me for a while.
