A Chief Inspector Gamache Novel (Book 19)
A missing coat, an intruder alarm, a note reading "this might interest you," a mysterious list - and then a murder. All propel Chief Inspector Gamache toward a terrible realization. Something more sinister than any one murder or any one case is fast approaching. Determined to track down the threat, his pursuit takes him across Quebec and across borders. His hunt grows increasingly desperate, even frantic, as the enormity of the creature he's chasing becomes clear. If he fails the devastating consequences would reach into the largest of cities and the smallest of villages.
