HOW THE LIGHT GETS IN Chief Inspector Gamache, Book 9

Louise Penny's Three Pines mysteries are eminently satisfying due to their imaginative variety. The stories include scenes of Montreal sophistication and gritty crime contrasted with the idyllic setting of Three Pines. There’s also literary appeal, quirky humor, and—let’s not forget—murder. Here Ralph Cosham infuses his performance of French-Canadian Inspector Gamache with his usual warmth. Cosham ably captures Gamache's controlled musings and infinite patience, and he gives the policeman a signature style: a subtle additional syllable each time the contemplative detective begins to speak. Gamache is drawn deep into the past as he seeks safe harbor from menacing adversaries while investigating a murder in Montreal that has ties to Three Pines. A.W.
