Several reviewers didn't like this installment in Penny's Inspector Gamache series. I thought it was one of her best. While there was some politics etc. Most of the time spent on an actual crime and trying to solve it. I did figure out who had dunnit but there were lots of twists and turns getting there. I loved it. Kind of getting back to basics. I love the author's aphorisms. In this book we learned three questions you should ask yourself before speaking: "is it true?" "is it kind?" "does it need to be said?". Wise words. Also as for how it turned out I could not help thinking of Captain Kirk's decision to take a demotion so he could be captain of the Enterprise again. It leaves a feeling that all's right with the world.
