This story answers the questions about what happens with Peter and Clara Morrow.
It is a more peaceful novel in many ways, but still held my attention completely. A very different story than her previous novels, this one is free from the tension and battles surrounding Gamache and others who were determined to ruin his life. She is uniquely in touch with the human soul and all the anger, joy, angst, hatred, loyalty, betrayal, and love and support that we can imagine.
NOVEL A LONG WAY HOME HOW TO
Louise Penny knows how to transport us physically as well as mentally to places we have never been before. And there they discover the terrible damage done by a sin-sick soul. To an area so desolate, so damned, the first mariners called it The land God gave to Cain. The journey takes them further and further from Three Pines, to the very mouth of the great St. A man so desperate to recapture his fame as an artist, he would sell that soul. And deeper and deeper into the soul of Peter Morrow. Together with his former second-in-command, Jean-Guy Beauvoir, and Myrna Landers, they journey deeper and deeper into Québec.
"There’s power enough in Heaven," he finishes the quote as he contemplates the quiet village, "to cure a sin-sick soul." And then he gets up. Having finally found sanctuary, Gamache feels a near revulsion at the thought of leaving Three Pines. Failed to show up as promised on the first anniversary of their separation. Peter, her artist husband, has failed to come home. While Gamache doesn't talk about his wounds and his balm, Clara tells him about hers. "There is a balm in Gilead," his neighbor Clara Morrow reads from the dust jacket, "to make the wounded whole." On warm summer mornings he sits on a bench holding a small book, The Balm in Gilead, in his large hands.
Happily retired in the village of Three Pines, Armand Gamache, former Chief Inspector of Homicide with the Sûreté du Québec, has found a peace he'd only imagined possible.
