Winner of the 2007 Agatha Award for Best Novel! When Chief Inspector Armand Gamache is called to investigate a woman’s death, it doesn’t take long for him to realize that no love was lost on Miss de Poitiers. But even if everyone hated her—her husband, lover, and daughter among them—how is it that no one saw her get electrocuted in the middle of a frozen lake in the center of town? Gamache digs beneath the surface of Three Pines to find where the real secrets are buried. But other troubles lie ahead for the detective. It seems he has some enemies of his own…and with the coming of the bitter winter winds, something far more chilling is in store.

I hear people rave about this series and wonder if it is really worth it. The answer yes it is worth it. The personalities are strong and well defined. The plot takes a few turns and ends up just about where we expect, but off enough to make your heart break.
Was good to revisit the people from the first book and I didn't get the entire mystery solved or solved too soon so the reveal was just right for me.
I was constantly getting confused by the similarity of names and folks having more than one name; Mother and M, M is Emily, etc. And sometimes in the audio there wasn't a pause between the scene changes so I was confused as to who was thinking or speaking at the moment.
