In the 19th installment of the Armand Gamache series, a peaceful August morning in the secluded village of Three Pines is disrupted by relentless phone calls. Armand Gamache, head of homicide at the Sûreté, is clearly troubled as he sits in the garden with his wife, Reine-Marie. When he finally answers, his fury breaks the tranquility of their Sunday. This marks the beginning of a series of unsettling events: a missing coat, an intruder alarm, a cryptic note for Gamache, a puzzling scrap of paper, and ultimately, a murder. These incidents lead Gamache and his team to a chilling realization that something far more sinister is looming. As Gamache, his son-in-law Jean-Guy Beauvoir, and Inspector Isabelle Lacoste navigate the unfolding chaos, they find themselves unable to trust anyone. Old friends turn into adversaries, while former foes seem to offer support. Their determination to uncover the looming threat drives them across Québec and beyond, intensifying their urgency as the true magnitude of their pursuit becomes apparent. The stakes are high; failure could have devastating repercussions that extend from bustling cities to the quiet corners of their village, including Three Pines.
