![]() ![]() The third book in Louise Penny’s ever more acclaimed Chief Inspector Gamache series, The Cruelest Month showcases the author in full stride. Along the way the two cases merge into a moral quagmire and in a season of new beginnings an increasingly beleaguered Gamache finds no hope, but only restless, agonized ghosts. As the Hadley house works its usual horror, Gamache’s own past history on the controversial Arnot case is coming to a head with the press busily trying to tear him, and everyone he loves, into bleeding shreds. When a quirky bistro idea turns deadly and a crowd of curious onlookers selects the old Hadley house for an Easter-tide séance another crumpled body leaves the Sûreté du Québec questioning a seemingly above-board, albeit gruesome, death. Returning to Three Pines during the time of resurrection, burgeoning new hope, and fragile April buds, Chief Inspector Armand Gamache is faced with a past that will not die. ![]() Rating: An Easter Flavored Gamache Mystery ![]()
