The long way home

Penny, Louise. (Author).

Summary: There is more to solving a crime than following the clues. Welcome to Chief Inspector Gamache's world of facts and feelings. Clara Morrow's husband is missing. When he fails to come home on the first anniversary of their separation, as promised, Clara asks the only person she trusts to try and find him: former Chief Inspector of Homicide, Armand Gamache. As Gamache journeys further into the case, he is drawn deeper into the tortured mind of Peter Morrow, a man so desperate to recapture his fame as an artist that he would sell his soul. As Gamache gets closer to the truth, he uncovers a deadly trail of jealousy and deceit. Can Gamache bring Peter, and himself, home safely? Or in searching for answers, has he placed himself, and those closest to him, in terrible danger? Ten million readers. Three pines. One inimitable Chief Inspector Gamache.

Summary: "Happily retired in the village of Three Pines, Armand Gamache, former Chief Inspector of Homicide with the Sûreté du Québec, has found a peace he'd only imagined possible... Until his neighbour Clara Morrow comes to him for help. Peter, her artist husband, has failed to come home. Having finally found sanctuary, Gamache feels a near revulsion at the thought of leaving Three Pines. Together with his former second-in-command, Jean-Guy Beauvoir, and Myrna Landers, they journey deeper and deeper into Québec."
