Still Life (Chief Inspector Gamache, Bk 1)
reviewed on + 212 more book reviews


I was pulled into this book from the first two sentences:

Miss Jane Neal met her maker in the early morning mist of Thanksgiving Sunday. It was pretty much a surprise all round.

Isnt that a great way to start out a murder mystery?

Even though Jane is obviously dead from the very first sentence, I felt that I knew her by the end of the novel, simply from the descriptions of her by other characters as the investigation of her murder takes place. And in the meantime, were introduced to the cast of characters that will become more central to the Armand Gamache series as it continues.
