Read the series that inspired Three Pines on Prime Video. A Rule Against Murder, the fourth book in Louise Penny's award-winning and critical revered mystery series features the wise and beleaguered Inspector Armand Gamache. 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.

"Here at four books into the series (Oh who I am kidding probably since book two) I think Armand Gamache is going to be one of those characters that I will return to again and again. There is something comforting in his quiet calm manner. No matter the brutal nature of the crime you have such a confidence he will eventually solve the case. This installment of the series is remote, puzzling, and set in a location you wish you could go into the pages to see. "
"I would definitely recommend, it's a great cozy mystery series and the characters are really charming."
