In the 19th installment of the bestselling Armand Gamache series, an idyllic August morning in the quaint village of Three Pines is disrupted by relentless phone calls. As Gamache, head of homicide at the Sûreté, enjoys time with his wife, Reine-Marie, she grows anxious when he refuses to answer a call from someone he clearly recognizes. When he finally picks up, his fury shatters their peaceful day, setting off a chain of peculiar events. A missing coat, an intruder alarm, and a cryptic note reading "this might interest you" lead to a puzzling scrap of paper with an enigmatic list—and ultimately, a murder. These incidents drive Gamache and his team toward a chilling realization: a far more sinister threat looms beyond a single murder. As Gamache, his son-in-law Jean-Guy Beauvoir, and Inspector Isabelle Lacoste navigate this treacherous landscape, they find that old friends are turning into foes, while former enemies seem to ally with them. Their urgent quest to uncover the looming danger takes them across Québec and beyond, intensifying as the magnitude of the threat becomes apparent. The stakes are high; failure could have devastating repercussions for both large cities and small villages, including their beloved Three Pines.
