I will be honest I read a lot of reviews and heard that this book wasn't great so I mostly skimmed this book and I'll be honest the end was pretty bad and disappointing. I also want to say that I am not a fan of all of the surete drama. I just want Gamache out there solving crimes and being his almost perfect self.

While I missed the characters from three pines, this was a lovely dive into Gamache and Boviour. Damnit Boviour is all I can say.
