Louise Penny. BURY YOUR DEAD. 2010.
Chief Inspector Armand Gamache is resting up in Quebec City with Emile Comeau, his old mentor, when he agrees to help investigate a murder of a Champlain fanatic whose body is found in the basement of an English-language historical society. As he investigates, Gamache re-lives the trauma of a recent hostage-taking terrorist take-down which led to four dead officers. The funeral was national news. Both he and Jean-Guy Beauvoir are injured.The details of the terrorist plan are sketchy, helping us anticipate further revelations.
Jean-Guy has been sent to review a murder in Three Pines, to ensure that the convicted felon is really guilty.
Beautiful evocations of the Quebec winter.
