‘Makes most of her competitors seem like wannabes’ THE TIMES

There is more to solving a crime than following the clues.

Welcome to Chief Inspector Gamache’s world of facts and feelings.

One cold November day, a mysterious figure appears on the village green in Three Pines, causing unease, alarm and confusion among everyone who sees it. Chief Superintendent, Armand Gamache knows something is seriously wrong, but all he can do is watch and wait, hoping his worst fears are not realised. But when the figure disappears and a dead body is discovered, it falls to Gamache to investigate.

In the early days of the murder inquiry, and months later, as the trial for the accused begins, Gamache must face the consequences of his decisions, and his actions, from which there is no going back . . .

Ten million readers.
Three pines.
One inimitable Chief Inspector Gamache.

Reviews

Peter James
Louise Penny's writing is intricate, beautiful and compelling. She is an original voice, a distillation of both PD James and Barbara Vine at their peaks and a worthy successor to both
Sunday Times on A Great Reckoning
Penny's elliptical style works brilliantly in a novel that combines modern-day police corruption with century-old tragedy
Saga on A Great Reckoning
Pacy and drips with atmosphere
