I read it twice, loved it the second time. In my first reading of her books, I tend to race through, undoubtedly missing stuff. I found it initially rather confusing ( who is Harriet?). It becomes much clearer throughout the book. I had never heard about the massacre of the women engineering students, sadly, here in the states, such an event wouldn’t have triggered any changes to gun laws.
I will say, that as traumatized as Gamache was by the crimes of the serial murderer, that I think that he should have recognized him ( despite cosmetic changes.)
