What to expect

'This gloriously shocking book grips from the very first page' DENISE MINA
'Wonderful' ELLY GRIFFITHS

There is more to solving a crime than following the clues.
Welcome to Chief Inspector Gamache's world of facts and feelings.

When Armand Gamache receives a letter inviting him to an abandoned farmhouse outside of Three Pines, the former head of police discovers that a complete stranger has named him as an executor of her will. The bequests are so wildly unlikely that he suspects the woman must have been delusional - until a body is found.

But it isn't the only menace Gamache is facing. The investigation into the events that led to his suspension delves deeper, and he takes increasingly desperate measures to rectify previous actions. As he does, Gamache begins to see his own blind spots - and the terrible things hiding there . . .

Millions of readers worldwide.
One inimitable Chief Inspector Gamache.

Critics Review

This gloriously shocking book grips from the very first page and spans centuries and continents, worlds and underworlds. Louise Penny is one of the greatest crime writers of our times

Denise Mina

No one does atmospheric quite like Louise Penny. Kingdom of the Blind tackles some tough contemporary issues whilst retaining the timeless small-town charm of Three Pines. A wonderful addition to a fantastic series

Elly Griffiths

Kingdom of the Blind is an ingenious mystery that follows a thoughtful group of beloved characters navigating their way through a fallen world. What more could a mystery reader – or any reader for that matter – want?

Washington Post

Outstanding . . . a constantly surprising series that deepens and darkens as it evolves

New York Times

The premise is an intriguing one . . . I loved the setting. A welcome return to Three Pines and its inhabitants.
