About this product
Product Information
Winner of the New Blood Dagger, Arthur Ellis, Barry, Anthony, and Dilys awards. Chief Inspector Armand Gamache of the Sur t du Qu bec and his team of investigators are called in to the scene of a suspicious death in a rural village south of Montreal. Jane Neal, a local fixture in the tiny hamlet of Three Pines, just north of the U.S. border, has been found dead in the woods. The locals are certain it's a tragic hunting accident and nothing more, but Gamache smells something foul in these remote woods, and is soon certain that Jane Neal died at the hands of someone much more sinister than a careless bowhunter. Still Life introduces not only an engaging series hero in Inspector Gamache, who commands his forces---and this series---with integrity and quiet courage, but also a winning and talented new writer of traditional mysteries in the person of Louise Penny.

What a joy it is to discover a detective like Armand Gamache, strong, calm and charismatic and at work on a good mystery in a believable setting., "A rare treat." - People magazine "It's hard to decide what provides the most pleasure in this enjoyable book: Gamache, a shrewd and kindly man constantly surprised by homicide; the village, which sounds at first like an ideal place to escape from civilization; or the clever and carefully constructed plot." - Chicago Tribune "Cerebral, wise and compassionate, Gamache is destined for stardom. Don't miss this stellar debut." - Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "Terrific. Like a virtuoso, Penny plays a complex variation on the theme of the clue hidden in plain sight." - Publishers Weekly (starred review) "A gem of a book." - Booklist (starred review) "[An] auspicious debut… [Penny's] deceptively simple style masks the complex patterns of a well-devised plot." -Marilyn Stasio, The New York Times Book Review "A perfectly executed traditional mystery." - Denver Post "A stellar debut novel.

It will be a delight for all of us who love detective fiction if Louise Penny can stay around long enough to do the same for Gamache." -Reginald Hill, author of The Stranger House " Still Life is a masterpiece of a traditional drawing room mystery, repainted in the autumnal colors of the Canadian countryside.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
