The 19th mystery novel in the New York Times bestseller Armand Gamache series.
On a warm August morning, the sound of the phone ringing shattered the tranquility of Three Pines. Although the small Quebec village could not be found on a map, someone found Armand Gamache, the head of the Sûreté homicide case, sitting in his back garden with his wife. Reine-Marie watched with increasing unease as her husband refused to answer the phone, even though he knew exactly who was on the other end. When he finally answered, his anger shattered the peace of their quiet Sunday morning.
This is just the first in the Gray Wolf series, the nineteenth novel in Louise Penny’s New York Times bestselling series. A missing coat, an intruder alarm, a note that says “You might be interested,” a puzzling note with a mysterious list of names—and then a murder. All of this leads Chief Detective Gamache and his team to a horrifying realization. Something far more sinister than any murder or any case is fast approaching.
Armand Gamache, his son-in-law and second-in-command Jean-Guy Beauvoir, and Inspector Isabelle Lacoste can only trust each other as old friends begin to act like enemies and long-time enemies seem to become friends. Determined to track down the threat before it becomes a reality, their pursuit takes them across Quebec and across the border. As the enormity of the monster they’re hunting becomes clear, their pursuit becomes increasingly desperate, even frantic. If they fail, the devastating consequences will reach the largest cities and the smallest villages.
Including three pines.
