Other reviews aren’t wrong - the fatphobia in this one is hard to stomach. Is it necessary for the plot? In some instances, yes. In others, not at all. If you have issues with body image, do yourself a kindness and skip this one.

mysterious
I really love the Inspector Gamache books but the horrendous fatphobia and focus on weight and body of a child is rough in this one. Like really horrendous. I don’t think I’ll return to it again.

Well written.  Lots of detail. If you love Mysteries you will like this series.  It's set in a small village, Three Pines in Quebec in Winter. Great book to cozy up with during fall and winter. I liked figuring out who committed the murder and why. Inspector Gamache is back solving another Murder.  An author is electrocuted at a village program and no one saw anything. Inspector Gamache and his team work together to solve the case.
