As the early morning mist clears on Thanksgiving Sunday, the homes of Three Pines come to life - all except one...To locals, the village is a safe haven. So they are bewildered when a well-loved member of the community is found dead in the maple woods. Surely it was an accident - a hunter's arrow gone astray. Who could want Jane Neal dead In a long and distinguished career with the Surete du Quebec, Chief Inspector Armand Gamache has learned to look for snakes in Eden. Gamache knows something dark is lurking behind the white picket fences, and if he watches closely enough, Three Pines will begin to give up its secrets...

Recensione:

'Still Life will tease, tantalise and trick you. Agatha Christie comes to Three Pines... has all the characteristics of the good, old-fashioned murder mystery - skilful plotting with red herrings galore, cleverly drawn characters, and a strong, calm detective... A clever, quietly-drawn thriller that probes beneath the apparently sunny surface of human nature' Joburg.co.za (Joburg.co.za)

'A perfectly executed traditional mystery' Poisoned Pen (Poisoned Pen)

'Set in an artistic haven outside Montreal, this cerebral mystery about a bow-and-arrow murder and a detective who works out of a local bistro is a rare treat' (People magazine)

Descrizione del libro:
