Description

The amazing new book in the New York Times bestselling sequence by Louise Penny, one of the very acclaimed crime writers of our time  No outsiders are actually accepted to the monastery of Saint-Gilbert-Entre-les-Loups, hidden deep within the wilderness of Quebec, where two-dozen cloistered monks reside in peace and prayer. They grow veggies, chickens are tended by them, chocolate is made by them. And they perform. Actually, for a residential area that's taken a vow of silence, the monks have grown to be world-famous for their wonderful voices, increased in historic chants whose impact on both performer and audience is really serious it's referred to as “the stunning mystery.” But once the well-known choir director is killed, the lock on the monastery’s huge wooden entrance is attracted back once again to acknowledge Main Inspector Armand Gamache and Jean-Man Beauvoir of the Sûreté du Québec.
