Synopsis
In the eighteenth book in Louise Penny’s beloved Chief Inspector Gamache series, a young man and woman return to Three Pines after many years. The two were young children when their troubled mother was murdered, leaving them damaged, shattered. Now, they are back, and they bring with them a mystery that will test Gamache and his team to their limits. As the villagers prepare for a special celebration, Gamache and Jean-Guy Beauvoir find themselves increasingly worried. The siblings, Fiona and Sam Arsenault, have reappeared in the Sûreté du Québec investigators’ lives after many years. The two were young children when their troubled mother was murdered, leaving them damaged, shattered. Now, they are back, and they bring with them a mystery that will test Gamache and his team to their limits. The siblings claim to have found a hidden room in Myrna’s loft, filled with strange and disturbing objects. The room seems to be connected to the murder of their mother, and Gamache fears that it may also be connected to a series of recent murders in the village. As Gamache and his team investigate, they uncover a dark and twisted history that has been buried for many years. The truth, when it is finally revealed, will shock and disturb even the most hardened of investigators.

About Joe Staats, Bookseller
We specialize in collectible, contemporary signed first editions. First edition means the first printing. (Later printings of the first edition are typically not printed on acid-free paper, and should be avoided by collectors.) Signatures are obtained by us in person. Inscribed books sold by us may contain a line, a phrase, or a sketch that the author has chosen to add. Our signed books are not dedicated to anybody in particular (not to your grandmother, your Aunt Gladys, your ex-lover or your former cellmate), except in the rare case of a presentation copy from an author to a noteworthy person. All our books are hardcover, unless the book is an Advance Reading Copy, Uncorrected Proof, or PBO. You can expect that the books we send you will be as described, and in a physical condition worthy of the author’s having signed them. We do not sell remainder-marked books, signed or otherwise
