Eine Séance im verlassenen Hadley-Haus, in dem es anscheinend spukt? Und das auch noch am Ostersonntag? 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?

In Three Pines, einem eigentlich friedlichen und idyllisch gelegenen Dörfchen in den Wäldern Kanadas, trägt sich erneut ein mysteriöser Todesfall zu: Die wenig beliebte und als hartherzig geltende Cecilia de Poitiers stirbt beim alljährlich stattfindenden Curling-Wettbewerb an einem Stromschlag. 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.

It is the height of summer, and Armand and Reine-Marie Gamache are celebrating their wedding anniversary at Manoir Bellechasse, an isolated, luxurious inn not far from the village of Three Pines. But they're not alone. The Finney family - rich, cultured, and respectable - has also arrived for a celebration of their own. The beautiful Manoir Bellechasse might be surrounded by nature, but there is something unnatural looming.

But now Lillian herself is dead. Found among the bleeding hearts and lilacs of Clara Morrow's garden in Three Pines, shattering the celebrations of Clara's solo show at the famed Musée in Montreal. Chief Inspector Gamache, the head of homicide at the Sûreté du Québec, is called to the tiny Quebec village and there he finds the art world gathered, and with it a world of shading and nuance, a world of shadow and light. Where nothing is as it seems. Behind every smile there lurks a sneer. Inside every sweet relationship there hides a broken heart.

Um hotel no meio do nada parece o destino perfeito para um investigador descansar e se afastar do trabalho. Até que um caso macabro acontece. No auge do verão canadense, o inspetor Gamache e sua esposa comemoram o aniversário de casamento no Manoir Bellechasse, um hotel luxuoso em meio à natureza, não muito longe do vilarejo de Three Pines. Só que os dois não estão sozinhos: a família Finney, tão rica quanto complicada, também se reuniu lá para uma ocasião especial. Para surpresa dos Gamaches, chegam ainda mais dois convidados para o evento, conhecidos do casal.

É primavera no vilarejo de Three Pines, no Quebec. Em meio às flores desabrochando e aos ovos de chocolate, alguns moradores decidem aproveitar a presença de uma médium para realizar uma sessão espírita no casarão abandonado da colina. A ideia é livrar a cidade do mal que se apoderou dela–mas a tensão do momento faz com que um deles não saia vivo dali. Em pouco tempo, um questionamento ganha força: é possível alguém morrer de susto ou terá sido um assassinato?

Após um tumultuado período na política americana, um novo presidente assume o poder e, para a surpresa de todos, escolhe uma adversária para o importante cargo de secretária de Estado. Trata-se de pura estratégia: Ellen Adams sempre foi uma crítica mordaz de Douglas Williams, mas, ao assumir a nova função, precisa abandonar seu império midiático e se silenciar.

Armand Gamache, ehemaliger Chief Inspector der Sûreté du Québec, hat sich in Three Pines zur Ruhe gesetzt.

Un nouveau président entre en fonction après quatre années marquées par un repli des États-Unis sur le plan des affaires internationales. Quand une série d'attentats terroristes met à mal l'ordre mondial, la secrétaire d'État fraichement nommée est chargée de constituer une équipe capable de déjouer un complot meurtrier, scrupuleusement conçu pour tirer profit d'un gouvernement américain déconnecté.
