'Outstanding ... a constantly surprising series' THE NEW YORK TIMES

There is more to solving a crime than following the clues.
Welcome to Chief Inspector Gamache's world of facts and feelings.

As Quebec City shivers in the grip of winter, its ancient stone walls cracking in the cold, Chief Inspector Armand Gamache plunges into the strangest case of his celebrated career.

A man has been brutally murdered in one of the city's oldest buildings - a library where the English citizens of Quebec safeguard their history. And the death opens a door into the past, exposing a mystery that has lain dormant for centuries . . . a mystery Gamache must solve if he's to catch a present-day killer.

Great writing, great mystery, and great narration. I wish Audible would get all of the Adam Sims narrations of Penny's books.

Sims reading this great mystery is wonderful!

Louise Penny really outdoes herself with this novel in the series. She really does pull on every heart string and tug on each and every suspenseful nerve you might have. I couldn't wait to get to the end with this one.

the best of the series.

This story is not captivating and elegantly written.
It is also a Teacher in human suffering. It is all about our collective suffering.
Suffer along, cry, weep.
And then find the healing so beautifully woven into this masterpiece. 🌟

Excellent character development both in this novel and across the series, and an interesting overview of francophone/anglophone dynamics.

Love this series

I have loved the Inspector Gamache series, downloading book after book continuously.

Listening ahead I hear that the narrator has been changed for future books. Adam Sims developed these characters perfectly and hearing his voice portray them has been one of the highlights of listening.
Bury Your Dead was a complex, beautifully woven telling of two different plots. As always I enjoy Louise Penny’s imagination and the building of characters so we feel like we know them.
Unfortunately I am put off by the change on narrator, it’s like changing the lead in Broadway show and expecting no one to notice.
Why would they do that?!?!
I’ve enjoyed the series to date and if I choose to continue I will need to read the remainder, hopefully hearing Adam Sims voice the characters I’ve grown to love come off the pages.
To the library I go.

Sadly my last Inspector Gamache audio book .....
