Chief Inspector Armand Gamache of the Surêté du Québec 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.

On the surface, the Victorian age is one of propriety, industry, prudishness and piety. But scratch the surface and you’ll find scandal, sadism, sex, madness, malice and murder. Presented by Stephen Fry, this series delves deep into a period of time we think we know, to discover an altogether darker reality. The stories we’re told offer a different perspective on an era which underwent massive social change. As education, trade, technology and culture blossomed, why was there an undercurrent of the ‘forbidden’ festering beneath Victorian society?

Publisher's Summary
From New York Times best-selling author Louise Penny comes a riveting new audiobook.
"What happened here last night isn't allowed," said Madame Dubois.
It was such an extraordinary thing to say it stopped the ravenous Inspector Beauvoir from taking another bite of his roast beef on baguette.
"You have a rule against murder?" he asked.
"I do. When my husband and I bought the Bellechasse we made a pact.... Everything that stepped foot on this land would be safe."
It is the height of summer, and Armand and Reine-Marie Gamache are celebrating their wedding anniversary at Manoir Bellechasse, an isolated, luxurious inn not far from the village of Three Pines. But they're not alone. The Finney family - rich, cultured, and respectable - has also arrived for a celebration of their own.
The beautiful Manoir Bellechasse might be surrounded by nature, but there is something unnatural looming. As the heat rises and the humidity closes in, some surprising guests turn up at the family reunion, and a terrible summer storm leaves behind a dead body. It is up to Chief Inspector Gamache to unearth secrets long buried and hatreds hidden behind polite smiles. The chase takes him to Three Pines, into the dark corners of his own life, and finally to a harrowing climax in A Rule Against Murder.
Grab your headphones and dive into the latest thrilling audiobook from Louise Penny's Chief Inspector Gamache series.

I enjoy Louise Penny's writing
What did you love best about A Rule Against Murder?
I've read all of Louise Penny's books. She is a wonderful and gifted writer. When I saw her books on Audible I started listening to the books. I have enjoyed the retelling of each story. The voice of Ralph Cosham is so soothing. Just like I would imagine Inspector Gamache sounding if he were a real person.
Who was your favorite character and why?
I enjoy Inspector Gamache so much. His relationship with each of the people he works with is so soundly developed. His relationship with his wife is so soothing and mature.
What about Ralph Cosham’s performance did you like?
As I stated before Mr. Cosham sounds as though he could be a Inspector Gamache if there was such a person in reality. So charming and mature.

You're going to have fun trying to solve this one!
Take a vacation from Three Pines, and follow Gamache and handful of your other favorites to a new setting and another unique murder. You're going to have fun trying to solve this one! If you're like me, you'll be shouting your guesses at the narrator and then second guessing yourself with each new chapter.
Full of picturesque descriptions, you'll feel like you, too, are having a lovely lakeside retreat. And you're going to LOVE how this story connects to those you know and love from Three Pines. Just wait until you meet this family!

Another great story
The character development continues to get better and better. Such likable people even when they do unlikeable things! And Ralph Cosham is the perfect narrator. A perfect blend of French and English in a rich and alluring voice. I get lost in the moment every time I "pick the book back up"!

Good but the ending
I love the narration, the humor, the mystery but this one I did not like the ending. I appreciate a twist this time it was both too obvious AND out of nowhere t the same time. Clues that were not shared so that the reader had no chance to come to the same conclusion.

slow but intriguing
the story took some time to gain any steam, and the narrator wasn't great at differentiating female voices also hard to listen to this book in the car at the end of the workday because of the cadence of the narrator and British accent. basically good murder mystery, but not sure if I'd pursue others featuring the main character or the narrator.

In depth
As the books progress we are treated to a deeper level of intimacy with the main characters not often accomplished in other crime novels. It is more than refreshing as it causes one to think and consider life, its frailties and its accomplishments. I thoroughly enjoy this series and am always eager to read the next.

Another Gamache Hit!
Who thought Louise Penny could come up with murder in a place just as charming as Three Pines? In this book she does. Her character and place development are as good as always.

A bit lacking in characters
Good book but it lacked the interactions with the characters we have grown to know and love. No Ruth. Good story though
