![]() ![]() Enough narcotic to kill thousands has surfaced in Montreal. ![]() ![]() While most of the opiods he allowed to slip through his hands, in order to bring down the cartels, have been retrieved, there is one devastating exception. The investigation into what happened six months ago – the events that led to his suspension – has dragged on into winter. ![]() His second investigation, which is simultaneous to the first, takes him to the city. Gamache isn’t far from Montreal, when at home in Three Pines. When a body is found, the terms of the bizarre will seem less peculiar and far more menacing. At first, the three executors also presume that the fortune and title are not real. Her will bequeathes this fortune to her three children, who all believe her to be delusional. A lineage and legacy that makes her extremely wealthy. However, Bertha Baumgartner swears to an ancestral background rooted in Vienna, Austria. Locally, the “Baroness” is known as a cleaning woman of modest means. Gamache, Myrna Lander, the village bookseller, and a young builder are all summoned to an abandoned farmhouse at the request of deceased Bertha “Baroness” Baumgartner to be the executors of her will. The first story line begins as a Three Pines local mystery. Chief Inspector Armand Gamache, six months into his suspension from the Surete du Quebec, finds himself involved in two separate criminal investigations. For Penny fans, this read will be a welcome return to Three Pines, an inviting Quebeec village, and to its inhabitants. ![]()
