Mystery

The Murder Stone

by Louise Penny

Book 4 of the Chief Inspector Gamache series

Gamache and his wife arrive at an isolated luxury inn for an anniversary gathering only to find a wealthy family confronting old grievances. When a newly installed statue falls and kills one of the guests, nearly every relative has motive and access. The elegant setting becomes a pressure chamber for inheritance, favoritism, and childhood wounds. Brooding and intimate, this mystery suits a stormy weekend for readers who enjoy country-house cases, complicated families, restrained detectives, and murder exposing the stories people tell about those they love.
