Relation In Favor Of Books Bury Your Dead (Chief Inspector Armand Gamache #6)
It is Winter Carnival in Quebec City, bitterly cold and surpassingly beautiful. Chief Inspector Armand Gamache has come not to join the revels but to recover from an investigation gone hauntingly wrong. But violent death is inescapable, even in the apparent sanctuary of the Literary and Historical Society - where an obsessive historian's quest for the remains of the founder of Quebec, Samuel de Champlain, ends in murder. Could a secret buried with Champlain for nearly 400 years be so dreadful that someone would kill to protect it? Although he is supposed to be on leave, Gamache cannot walk away from a crime that threatens to ignite long-smoldering tensions between the English and the French. Meanwhile, he is receiving disquieting letters from the village of Three Pines, where beloved Bistro owner Olivier was recently convicted of murder. "It doesn't make sense," Olivier’s partner writes every day. "He didn't do it, you know." As past and present collide in this astonishing novel, Gamache must relive the terrible event of his own past before he can bury his dead.Be Specific About Books During Bury Your Dead (Chief Inspector Armand Gamache #6)

Number six in this series which keeps getting better and better!Bury Your Dead takes place six months after The Brutal Telling and one of our Three Pines characters is languishing in gaol convicted of murder. A lot has happened to Gamache and his team in that six months including major injuries and deaths. all of which is revealed slowly as the book progresses.Two mysteries run parallel in this book. Gamache is in Quebec recovering emotionally as well as physically from the earlier traumaticI just love this series. This is the sixth book in the Armand Gamache Series. I love the characters and love Three Pines. The characters have become my friends. They are so real and yet so quirky. I remember when I first started the series I thought that I would never remember all of their names because there seemed to be so many people, but now I can easily recall each person. And of course, the continuity is always provided by Chief Inspector Armand Gamache, who is a central character in each
This installment in the Armand Gamache series includes FOUR mysteries in one:- who really killed the man in the woods in the town of Three Pines?- who killed an amateur archaeologist in Quebec?- where is Quebec's founder, Samuel de Champlain, buried?- what happened recently to Armand Gamache and his team, resulting in their injuries and PTSD?These four storylines are seamlessly interwoven, taking this series from it's 'cozy' feel to something with just a bit more bite while still maintaining
I had forgotten what the pure joy of getting lost in a book was like.Bury Your Dead is the most intricate of the Louise Penny books that I have read so far. There are three plotlines weaving throughout the book at once.The main plot would seem to be the murder of a man who had dedicated his life to finding the burial site of Samuel De Champlain, considered the founder of Quebec. Where he was found was even more controversial. His body was found buried in the basement of The English Literary and
Dear Lousy Louise Penny,You really know how to hurt a boy. You make, ex nihilo, people whose reality I completely buy into, whose very existence (in a well-ordered Universe) is simply necessary, and then you give them real, human flaws, and dreadfully painful pasts, and generally screw with my reality/fictionality compass.And then you make them do yucky, tacky things. And even vile, evil ones. And somehow, throughout that process, you *don't* make me dislike them, or even judge them. You make me
Man oh man do I love this series. Was this one the best yet? Yes. But I say that every time. It took me all month to read, but I'm not even sorry about it. I like to spend my time with Inspector Gamache. I wish he were real.
I'm really impressed with the intertwining of three mysteries in this latest Gamache mystery. The first is off-stage: who kidnapped Paul Morin, why, and what happened to Gamache and his team, told in flashbacks (on Gamache's part) and in narrative (from Jean-Guy). The second is Gamache's request that Jean-Guy unofficially reopen the case against Olivier (because, as Gabri keeps asking, "why would he have moved the body"?), flashing back to The Brutal Telling. And the third is Gamache helping
