Now Gamache has bitter and dangerous enemies who will go after those he loves the most to destroy Gamache. And then there are the ongoing, simmering, problems concerning something Gamache did to bring his upward career momentum to a screeching halt. There is the crime that Gamache and company are investigating in each book. The characters carry over from one book to another and it's as if life really does go on between books. The Chief Inspector Armand Gamache books have so much going on in them. The Cruelest Month (Chief Inspector Armand Gamache #3)īy Louise Penny (Author), Ralph Cosham (Narrator) (Like the girl, after you wash the soup out'a her hair.) But, in the end, the damn thing still turns out beautiful. So, to sum it up, it's like this big crazy quilt, made from lots of ugly leftover scraps. Although, personally, I thought she was nice in a rude kind of way. Maybe it's the whole wise and paternal Inspector Gamache thing leading his adoring band of rejects, especially the rude girl with her hair constantly in the soup and crumbs on her blouse, who doesn't listen and who nobody likes, including her parents. So why did I like it? I have no idea, but I really did like it. Then there's the whole room full of suspects, and that whole, 'you did it', 'no, she did it', 'no, he did it', 'no, they did it', Agatha Christie kinda thing.Really?, come on now!
Then there is the kinda obligatory creepy sceance thing in a hunted house.Really? do people still do that? Then she starts the book like your typical cozy and then it transforms into a police procedural.Really weird. Then there's the thing about everybody in the village being slightly eccentric.I really hate that. Why do I like this woman and this band of lunatics?įirst there's the thing about the nice small village which just happens to have the highest known murder rate per capita in the entire world.I hate that.
