In the newest book by #1 New York Times bestselling author Louise Penny, Chief Inspector Armand Gamache returns to the Sûreté du Québec to find himself met by catastrophic spring flooding, scathing attacks in the press, and an enigmatic disappearance.
On this first day back, Gamache leads the homicide department, a position he temporarily shares with Jean-Guy Beauvoir, his former second-in-command. All around the province, floodwaters are rising. A father approaches Gamache in the midst of the chaos and asks for assistance in finding his daughter.
Gamache, trying to stave off the impending turmoil as crisis after crisis mounts, recognizes that the hunt for Vivienne Godin ought to end. But now that he has a daughter of his own, he finds himself growing a deep—and possibly foolish—empathy with her distressed father.
He starts looking again, getting more and more pestered with the question, "How would you feel..."
A body is found as the rivers rise and the social media campaign against Gamache intensifies. And errors occur in the chaos.
Gamache is faced with a terrifying possibility and a pressing question in the next book in this "constantly surprising series that deepens and darkens as it evolves" (The New York Times Book Review).
If the person who killed your child was free, how would you react?
