The Beautiful Mystery

LOUISE PENNY RETURNS WITH A STUNNING WORK OF FICTION THAT CONTINUES TO EXPRESS HER DEPTH OF STORYTELLING AND LYRICISM

THE BEAUTIFUL MYSTERY

Echoes of cloistered monks' ancient chant resonate deep in the wilderness surrounding Quebec's Saint-Gilbert-Entre-les-Loups monastery. When their choir director is murdered, Chief Inspector Gamache and Inspector Jean-Guy Beauvoir discover disquiet beneath the silence and discord in the harmony. Before finding the killer, before restoring peace, Gamache must confront his own demons, and consider the divine, the human, and the cracks in between.
