In this novel, Chief Inspector Gamache is on vacation with his wife at a resort.  The other guests are individuals who are having a family reunion.  Well, murder isn&#8217;t taking a vacation as a woman is killed by a statue falling over on her and, as it turns out, it isn&#8217;t an accident!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is a connection between the guests at the resort and Three Pines as another couple of relatives arrives and they are characters who live in Three Pines.  Book 4 of the series had a lot to do with Gamache&#8217;s problems with his career and the plot to undermine him.  This novel, however, does not continue that theme.  It will be interesting to read book 5 to see if Penny picks up on that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The pace of this book was somewhat slow, but it was tolerable.  The narration by Ralph Cosham was very good, as usual.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Chief Inspector Gamache Mystery Book 4, by Louise Penny, 2009, Audiobook narrated by Ralph Cosham released in 2016, Macmillan Audio This book is different from Penny&#8217;s prior books as the plot doesn&#8217;t take place in the village of Three <span class=\"excerpt-dots\">&hellip;<\/span> <a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/wilsonld.com\/weblog\/?p=3350\"><span class=\"more-msg\">Continue reading &rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[44,36],"class_list":["post-3350","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-books","tag-fictrion","tag-mystery"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wilsonld.com\/weblog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3350","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wilsonld.com\/weblog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wilsonld.com\/weblog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wilsonld.com\/weblog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wilsonld.com\/weblog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=3350"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/wilsonld.com\/weblog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3350\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3439,"href":"https:\/\/wilsonld.com\/weblog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3350\/revisions\/3439"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wilsonld.com\/weblog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=3350"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wilsonld.com\/weblog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=3350"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wilsonld.com\/weblog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=3350"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
