Summary
As Quebec City shivers in the grip of winter, its ancient stone walls cracking in the cold, Chief Inspector Armand Gamache plunges into the strangest case of his celebrated career. A man has been brutally murdered in one of the city’s oldest buildings - a library where the English citizens of Quebec safeguard their history. And the death opens a door into the past, exposing a mystery that has lain dormant for centuries... a mystery Gamache must solve if he’s to catch a present-day killer. Steeped in luscious atmosphere, brimming with the suspense and wit that have earned Louise Penny a massive global following, Bury Your Dead is the most ingenious suspense novel of the year.

Bit convoluted
not as enjoyable as previous books in this series. The sub plot of the terrorist attack was more interesting than the actual plot. Have I missed a book? Has this actually been explored and I've accidentally missed it? hm, I will have to check....

Amazing.
This series is hands down the best I have ever read. The auditable narration by Adam Simms is also fantastic.

Three investigations in one book
I've enjoyed all the books so far in this series but this is my favourite.Three intertwined story threads each of them fascinating meant that I listened to this at every possible moment. There is a mix of location and time and a drawing together of past narratives, altogether great value

Narration seemed less harsh than previous volume
But the story dragged a bit in the middle. Will still be getting the next one though …..

Getting to know characters even more.
Really living this series. So worth while reading them in order. Love finding out more and more about the characters. Makes me want to visit Quebec, wish 3 Pines was real.

6* book!
This was wonderful. So descriptive, atmospheric, sad and joyful. There are several threads running throughout. Just wonderful! Beautifully written and narrated as usual. I love how much the characters have developed through their cases, experiences and life. On to the next.

The best so far
I thought Louise Penny really upped her game even further with this the sixth Inspector Gamache novel. Not just a development of the Three Pines stories but embracing the difficult political and social scene in Quebec City to give a great insight into the still smouldering tensions between the French and English communities. The narrator does a superlative job throughout and is one of the key reasons I'm binge listening this series.

Sublime storytelling
This is book 6 of a series, so best not to start here, but as a lover of these wonderful stories this sophisticated triple tales approach had me gripped. I cried, laughed and sighed at each twist and turn. Characters that fill out a little in each book as other facets of them are revealed. The sidekick’s coming of age trajectory. The waspish eccentric poet (an unkind self parody perhaps). The people who are not all good or all bad, but human.
Thoroughly enjoyable - can’t wait for the next one.
