Still Life (Chief Inspector Gamache Series #1) by Louise PennyRead about another entry on the list.
The start of the series that inspired the show Three Pines, Still Life introduces us to the quietly courageous Chief Inspector Armand Gamache. As he investigates the death of a local woman, he’s sure it’s more sinister than it appears. Beautifully written, this is the debut that kicked off the storied career of beloved author Louise Penny.
