The Long Way Home

Armand Gamache, retired chief inspector of homicide with the Sûreté du Québec, has found peace. On warm summer mornings he sits on a bench holding a book. "There is a balm in Gilead to make the wounded whole."

Armand doesn’t talk about his balm. Clara tells him about hers. Peter is not home. With his son-in-law Jean-Guy and Myrna Landers, they journey to the mouth of the St. Lawrence River, to an area so desolate the first mariners called it the land God gave to Cain.
