Chief Inspector Gamache #9
A very complex book but well worth the read. Myrna sends out a message to Gamache that sends him to Three Pines, which turns into a murder. Gamache takes on the case--the last of a famous set of Quintuplets is found murdered in her own home. This plot line shares space with Gamache's ongoing battle against corruption and evil in the heart of the Surete and the tragedy that is Jean Guy and his continuing struggles with addiction.
I won't go into details for fear of spoilers...but if you don't like spoilers of any kind stop reading now...as by the end of this book a lot of dangling plotlines are quite satisfactorily wrapped up and tied with a bow...this themes nicely with the Christmas time setting of the book.
