The Cruellest Month

Author: Louise Penny

This is the third book in the Inspector Gamache series; I’ll have to try and find the second book somewhere.

I loved that the murder to be solved took place in Three Pines, but I’m a little concerned that for a small village and with the number of murders and murderers there won’t be many left in town. Most of the characters from the first book are back.

I didn’t enjoy this one quite as much as the other books in the series. In this book there was a murder to solve but there were also some shady deals going in the police force and Gamache was in the middle of it all. I felt a bit like I was missing too much of the back story on the police misconduct to really understand what was going.
