March 2012 Guest Editor Alan Bradley on Louise Penny...
Still Life was the first of fellow Canadian Louise Penny’s “Three Pines” novels featuring Chief Inspector Armand Gamache of the Sûreté du Quebec. Louise’s follow-ups (seven so far and another soon to come) have gone on to win an astonishing four Agatha Awards – and every one of them richly deserved.

'One of the most interesting detectives in crime fiction' THE TIMES
There is more to solving a crime than following the clues.
Welcome to Chief Inspector Gamache's world of facts and feelings.
The discovery of a dead body in the woods on Thanksgiving Weekend brings Chief Inspector Armand Gamache and his colleagues to a place called Three Pines. Gamache cannot understand why anyone would want to deliberately kill well-loved artist Jane Neal, especially any of the residents of the village - a place so free from crime it doesn't even have its own police force.
But Gamache knows that evil is lurking somewhere behind the white picket fences and that, if he watches closely enough, Three Pines will start to give up its dark secrets...
Millions of readers worldwide.
One inimitable Chief Inspector Gamache.
