On a lonely path. The 14th case for Gamache

A mysterious will leads Armand Gamache to an abandoned farmhouse. Together with Myrna, the bookseller from Three Pines, and a young man, he has been appointed the executor of a certain Bertha Baumgartner's estate. Who was this eccentric woman, referred to by everyone as "Baroness," yet worked as a cleaning lady? She left each of her three children five million dollars, which only existed in their imagination. Shortly thereafter, a corpse is found in the dilapidated house. Gamache actually has no time for investigations, even though he is suspended as the head of the Sûreté du Québec. Gamache dismantled the largest drug cartel but manipulated the justice system in the process. Even worse, not the entire stock of the cartel could be secured. How can Gamache prevent the drugs from wreaking havoc in Montreal without his team from the Sûreté? For Gamache, a race against time begins – on a lonely road.
