'Louise Penny's writing is intricate, beautiful and compelling' PETER JAMES
'Penny is a joy' IRISH TIMES

There is more to solving a crime than following the clues.

Welcome to Chief Inspector Gamache's world of facts and feelings.

Winter in Three Pines, and the sleepy village is carpeted in snow. It's a time of peace and goodwill - until a scream pierces the biting air. A spectator at the annual Boxing Day curling match has been fatally electrocuted. Despite the large crowd, there are no witnesses and - apparently - no clues.

Chief Inspector Armand Gamache discovers a history of secrets and enemies in the dead woman's past. But he has enemies of his own, and as he is frozen out of decision-making in the police force, he has to decide who he can trust ...

Millions of readers worldwide.
One inimitable Chief Inspector Gamache.

Louise Penny's writing is intricate, beautiful and compelling. She is an original voice, a distillation of both PD James and Barbara Vine at their peaks and a worthy successor to both * Peter James *
Full of twists and turns . . . Wonderfully satisfying * Kate Mosse on How the Light Gets In *
Penny's elegant style is deeply satisfying, while Gamache is contemplative even when under pressure, and remains a man you want to spend time with * Metro *
Impossible to put down * Globe and Mail on A Rule Against Murder *
