‘You know what money buys?’ Gamache shook his head. ‘I’m an accountant and I’ve spent a lifetime counting money and watching the people who have it. Do you know what I’ve decided? The only thing money really buys?’A thoroughly enjoyable murder mystery with many, intriguing, layers of human experiences intertwined. Once again there is passion, compassion, unresolved feelings, secrets and magic buried in this addictive word-castle of a brilliant author.
