A World of Curiosities

Más información sobre el libro

Chief Inspector Armand Gamache returns in the latest installment of Louise Penny's beloved series. As spring arrives in Three Pines, the village begins to shake off the remnants of winter. However, not everything that has been dormant should resurface. With the villagers preparing for a special celebration, Gamache and Jean-Guy Beauvoir are troubled by the unexpected return of a young man and woman linked to a tragic case from their past—the murder of their mother when they were children. The memories of that case, which initially united Gamache and Beauvoir, resurface, raising concerns about the lasting impact of the trauma on the siblings. As Gamache investigates, he uncovers a letter from a long-dead stonemason, filled with terror about sealing an attic room in the village. When the villagers decide to open it, they uncover a trove of curiosities. Yet, Gamache realizes that the room holds more than just artifacts; it contains hidden messages and puzzles that hint at impending chaos. In unsealing the room, they inadvertently release an old enemy into their midst, threatening their lives and the sanctity of Gamache's home.
