A Trick of the Light (Chief Inspector Armand Gamache, #7)
by Louise Penny
by Louise Penny
A TRICK OF THE LIGHT is the most recent offering in Louise Penny’s outstanding, delightfully literate series of mysteries featuring Chief Inspector Armand Gamache of the Québec Sureté, his second in command, Jean-Guy Beauvoir, and the lovable but idiosyncratic residents of the Quebec village of Twin Pines.
Local artist Clare Morrow presides over a garden party celebrating her triumphant solo show at the prestigious Musée d'Art Contemporain in Montreal. The morning after, the body of a woman, an apparent stranger, is found among the flowers in Clara's garden. And so it begins...
Chiaroscuro, the interplay of light and dark, both literally and figuratively, plays a prominent role. People and plots are multidimensional, multilayered, and realities shift as the art world collides with Twin Pines. Ultimately, nothing is as it seems, bearing out the titular admonition that it's all A TRICK OF THE LIGHT.
