With each Louise Penny book, I think she can't get any better. "THIS is the best so far!" I say to myself. This is exactly the same. It was a book I wanted to read as fast as I could without stopping and yet felt I needed to slow it down. Savor every delicious morsel. I am grieving that I am facing the last of the series coming up next. But I have to get and read it anyway.
This story is based on real life events, people from long ago and yet it is so terrifyingly present day. The political maneuvering, the horrid and destructive secrecy from high places and other countries made me amazed about how much it equates to today.
Yet, this is not a book caught up in self-righteous, far-flung intrigue. The characters are the ones I've come to know and love over eleven books. And the story itself is deeply personal, revolving around one little boy and the waves that rippled out from him. Not at all Tom Clancy-ish in its force. But the force of this story will propel you all the way to the last page.
