The Brutal Telling (Chief Inspector Gamache Series #5)

Chaos is coming, old son. With those words the peace of Three Pines is shattered. As families prepare to head back to the city and children say goodbye to summer, a stranger is found murdered in the village bistro and antiques store. Once again, Chief Inspector Gamache and his team are called in to strip back layers of lies — exposing both treasures and rancid secrets buried in the wilderness.
