About this listen
When Chief Inspector Gamache arrives in picturesque Three Pines, he steps into a village in chaos. A man has been found bludgeoned to death, and there is no sign of a weapon, a motive, or even the dead man's name. As Gamache and his colleagues start to dig under the skin of this peaceful haven for clues, they uncover a trail of stolen treasure, mysterious codes, and a shameful history that begins to shed light on the victim's identity - and points to a terrifying killer....
Look out for: Book 6 in the Chief Inspector Gamache series, Bury Your Dead: As Quebec City shivers in the grip of winter, its ancient stone walls cracking in the cold, Chief Inspector Armand Gamache plunges into the strangest case of his celebrated career. A man has been brutally murdered in one of the city's oldest buildings - a library where the English citizens of Quebec safeguard their history. And the death opens a door into the past, exposing a mystery that has lain dormant for centuries...a mystery Gamache must solve if he's to catch a present-day killer.

The other narrator
I like the other narrator better. This is a good book, but compared to the others in the series so far, it does not hold up

Not bad
A good story. However, I found this a tad dragged out and boring. I had to force my way to the end and thought maybe I am just not a Louise Penny fan. I picked it based on ratings. Not sure if I will try another.

Essential prequel
The next book, Bury Your Dead, is a breathtaking and masterfully told rollercoaster of suspense. This book, while convoluted, is an essential prequel to Bury Your Dead.

Could not listen
The narrator was awful. I struggled to listen to this book. I will not download any more in the series narrated by Mr Sims. Very disappointing performance. Not everyone is cut out to be a narrator.
