The Secret Hidden in the Map
When a century-old, hand-drawn map is found in the wall of a bistro in Three Pines, it first seems like a mere curiosity. But the more the villagers examine it, the stranger it appears. Armand Gamache, who receives it as a gift on his first day at a new job, is fascinated by the peculiar map, but he has no idea what terrible secrets it will ultimately lead him to. At the Sûreté academy, where Gamache has become the new commander with a mission to create a healthier training environment for future police officers, one of the professors is murdered. Mysteriously, a copy of the old map is found in the room with the body. As the investigation progresses, the clues increasingly point, like a compass needle, towards Gamache's own darkest secret—a place even he is afraid to enter. But to solve the case and reckon with his past, he has no other choice.
