Used. Paperback. Chief Inspector Gamache returns in this clever canvas of crime, where a murder in a quaint Quebec village proves that not all artists draw the line at honesty. As our discerning detective probes a tragic palette of broken hearts and duplicitous dealings, every seemingly straightforward clue begins to blur under the brushstrokes of deception. Louise Penny paints a brilliantly atmospheric mystery that tests whether Gamache can separate the masterworks from the masterpieces of deceit. It is a wonderfully layered puzzle that will leave you questioning every stroke long before the frame is finished.
