Warum nicht, denken sich die Dorfbewohner von Three Pines und sind gespannt darauf, mit dem Medium Madame Isadore Blavatsky in Kontakt zu treten. Doch statt dass Tote lebendig werden, erschrickt eine der Séance-Teilnehmerinnen, die allseits beliebte Madeleine Favreau, im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes zu Tode. War dies Zufall - oder ein heimtückisch geplanter Mord?

War es ein heimtückischer Mord oder doch ein tragischer Unfall? Erneut beginnt Armand Gamache, Polizeichef der Sûreté du Québec, mit seinem Team vor Ort zu ermitteln. Und nur sein feiner Spürsinn lässt ihn nach und nach die Mauer des Schweigens der Dorfbewohner durchbrechen.

Um homem levou um golpe fatal na cabeça, só que não há sinal da arma do crime e não se sabe o motivo do assassinato ou mesmo o nome daquele estranho.

Para surpresa dos Gamaches, chegam ainda mais dois convidados para o evento, conhecidos do casal.

Em pouco tempo, um questionamento ganha força: é possível alguém morrer de susto ou terá sido um assassinato?
